Gifford's bodyguards whisk Gifford away, costing a disappointed Cartman his chance to be on television. Wendy takes to the stage and reveals that Cartman cheated on his essay, but the townspeople are too upset about Gifford's departure to care. Garrison is taken to a mental hospital, where Mr. Hat is placed into a straitjacket. Garrison apologizes to the kids for costing the town a chance to be on television, although Kyle explains to him that Cartman is now appearing on talk show Geraldo because of his tremendous obesity.
Meanwhile, Chef is lying in bed with Gifford post-coital while watching Geraldo. However, they paid Parker and Stone to write another script when Internet buzz began to generate about the duo and their work on The Spirit of Christmas , the animated short film that served as a precursor to South Park.
The network opted not to commit to a full Comedy Central series until they could read the newly commissioned script. The result was "Weight Gain ", which the two South Park creators wrote while they were working on their comedy-action film, Orgazmo.
In writing the script, the duo sought to give Comedy Central executives an idea of what the series would be like and how each show could differ from the others. Parker and Stone also said they would not write another script until the network signed off on the full show with a season of at least six episodes. Comedy Central liked the script and agreed to commit to a series. While "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe" was created almost entirely with construction paper, "Weight Gain " was the first South Park episode made completely using computers.
In the future, South Park shows would be created within a week of their broadcast dates and require about 40 animators. Although Parker and Stone sought to improve the details and textures of the characters and overall animation, they also specifically chose Alias because it would allow the animation to maintain the show's deliberately crude visual style they first created with construction paper in The Spirit of Christmas and "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe".
The South Park creators and animators said they were still developing the characters and trying to figure out the future direction of the show with "Weight Gain ", which was more slow-paced than the series would eventually become. The page script was shorter than in later episodes, which would average between 45 to 50 pages. The child protagonists also spoke slower. While recording their voice performances, the actors read the lines slowly and the dialogue was then sped up to create the characters' distinctive voices.
At that time, Parker and Stone had not mastered the pace at which they needed to speak. The crowd shots in "Weight Gain " took a particularly long time to animate due to the large number of people featured, and the animators were especially proud of the use of depth and motion in the perspective of the crosshairs in Mr. Garrison's rifle scope as he tried to assassinate Kathie Lee Gifford. Garrison's hatred for Gifford was foreshadowed in "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe", where the sentence "I'm not positive, but I think Cathy [ sic ] Lee Gifford is much older than she claims to be", can be seen on his classroom's chalkboard.

During a flashback scene in "Weight Gain ", an eight-year-old Mr. Garrison is shown to already be bald on top with gray hair on the side of his ears. This led to an inconsistency in the first season episode " Cartman's Mom is a Dirty Slut ", in which he has a full head of hair during a flashback. Describing the general tone of the show, Teri Fitsell of The New Zealand Herald explains that "South Park is a vicious social satire that works by spotlighting not the immorality of these kids but their amorality, and contrasting it with the conniving hypocrisy of the adults who surround them.
Don't people remember what they were like in third grade? We were little bastards. Although these elements were established in "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe" and the Spirit of Christmas precursor cartoons, "Weight Gain " further pushed the conventions of television, and especially of animated television entertainment. In addition to a continued stream of profanities and the promiscuous activities of Chef, an elementary school employee, the episode presents the character of Mr.

Garrison as more and more unhinged. Although entrusted with the care of an elementary school class, Mr. Garrison demonstrates a questionable gender identity, poor teaching and unusual relationship with his Mr. This satire is particularly demonstrated by Cartman's blind faith in the Weight Gain bodybuilding supplement product despite strong evidence that the product fails at its primary function. Specifically, the product promises to build muscle, and Cartman believes it has fulfilled this function even after he only becomes extremely overweight.
The tremendous amount of product Cartman buys is further indicative of American purchasing habits. Cartman's impulse to buy a bodybuilding supplement based on a single commercial has been described as a satire of the concept of "identity shopping". The concept involves the obtaining of an identity through what one owns, wears or buys, just as Cartman seeks to remake himself as a bodybuilder by buying Weight Gain Zahl has suggested Cartman's addiction to food in the episode, combined with his blind faith in the Weight Gain supplement and his insistence to "follow your dreams", reflects the idea that many people falsely cling to the notion of free will when they in fact lack any self-control whatsoever.
Zahl wrote, "The two writers of South Park see through the myth of 'free will. It also introduces Clyde Donovan , a student from Mr. Garrison's class who would eventually play significant roles in future seasons, although he was not identified by name. McDaniels, who imagines herself an instant star upon being seen on television with Gifford, is portrayed as more caring about her own fame than the needs of her constituents, [14] and the neglect with which Jimbo sells a gun to an obviously unstable Mr. Garrison serves as a satire of gun control. In creating McDaniels, Parker and Stone envisioned a sophisticated mayor who was convinced she was better than the other residents of South Park.
The episode also marked the first reference to Jesus and Pals , the public-access television talk show hosted by Jesus Christ. The fictional show is mentioned twice in the background during commercials on television sets, [2] although footage from the show itself is not shown until " Big Gay Al's Big Gay Boat Ride " later in the season.
Debbie Liebling , who served as a South Park producer at the time of the episode's broadcast, said the inclusion of a television show hosted by Jesus helped convey for audiences the idea of South Park as a place where "anything can happen".

Kathie Lee Gifford, then a television hostess on the morning talk show Live with Regis and Kathie Lee , was the first of many celebrities to be spoofed in a South Park episode. The incident was the first of what Parker and Stone called the "South Park Curse", in which something tragic or embarrassing supposedly happens to a celebrity shortly before or after they were featured in South Park.
They thought the design of the Popemobile, which has a bulletproof booth built into the back of a modified truck, was "hilarious". The line " Beefcake ", which Eric Cartman enthusiastically screams after hearing it on a Weight Gain commercial, became a well-known catchphrase following the episode's broadcast, [19] [20] and clothing items with Cartman shouting the line became very popular.
Chef's Luv Shack , a video game from developer Acclaim , included a mini-game called "Beefcake", in which players control a Cartman character who moves back and forth between the screen eating cans of Weight Gain that are thrown down at him. The salesmen from "Weight Gain " are featured as antagonists in the mini-game. When "Weight Gain " was released, many writers in the mainstream media were still debating the longevity and overall quality of South Park. With the series still in its earliest stages, the episode continued to shock many with its frequent use of profanities by children and the apparent instability of school teacher Mr.
Audiences were also shocked and offended by Chef's sexually suggestive song about Gifford. Tom Shales , The Washington Post [11]. He specifically complimented the episode's commentary on American consumerism. Simon wrote, "It's all very bitter social satire, and if it weren't on Comedy Central, believe me, no one in networkland would think it ready for prime time.
And you know what else?
