here is a video the worst episode and character in South Park by blooms so I like blooms he does good and uh as someone that's dipping my toes into the South Park Seas right now uh I'm excited to see who the worst character is and what the worst episode is actually I'll tell you what if this video gets 50 000 likes I'll make an entire video doing a deep dive into the episode and the character fortunately for my mental health that will not happen and I will never have to talk about this little French kid oh all right class what's the lesson we learned here the internet wants to see you suffer suffer this is what you all wanted huh you wanted to see me suffer you wanted to see my beautiful blossoming head Wilt as my life force is sucked out of me by the parasitic effects that watching this episode has you're all evil every single one of you that liked that video and when the Lord returns I hope he spares your souls no mercy I feel like this is just me it's my Velma videos except for the hoping that when the Lord returns their spare Souls part aside from that I feel like it's just me with development videos so for today's lecture we're talking about the worst episode in South Park history pip wait are we talking about the character or the episode both okay we're talking about both this lecture will be a brief history of the character and a discussion about why the episode is so painfully awful we want to leave now I would not blame you at all so feel free to do so what about you are you gonna stay 1844. good ending oh God is this really that terrible what congratulations you have sealed your fate all right let's get this over with this is PIP that's it that's what I'm calling it pip buckle up boys it's gonna be a long one if even the YouTuber is telling you to skip the video and avoid the watch time that is a terrible sign so I for one am terrified so first a quick shout out to my fellow YouTuber Lydia loves timelines who made a great video on Pips history recently and I recommend you go check it out so Pip's first appearance is in the unaired pilot of South Park making him one of the oldest characters in the show from the beginning his character is pretty defined he's a sweet innocent kid and because of that he's relentlessly tormented by everyone else wait the worst character in South Park the character in South Park that everyone hates the most is the sweet innocent kid yeah sounds about right we all [ __ ] suck and worst of all he's British the unaired pilot they have toast with beans on it they're not a real country cracks his head open on a slide while the other kids laugh at him when he goes to the nurse's office she too shows very little regard for his health oh it's not that bad he just need a little antiseptic now notice how I said that this was the unaired pilot and not the real one because it seems like Matt and Trey made the correct decision in cutting Pip screen time down to Mere background appearances in the real pilot no pip was essentially a prototype version of Butters he was the punching bag for the rest of the boys far before Butters he said butters's voice makes him sound like he deserves to be a punching bag unlike pip haven't had any character traits and even though they essentially feel the same role the difference in the characters is massive lunchy munchies so much more Dynamic from the beginning his character was just so much more fleshed out than Pips pip just takes everything that's thrown his way with little to no resistance his entire character is just that he gets bullied name is Philip but everyone calls me pip because they hate me then I will call you pip right too butters on the other hand has so much more to him and almost as submissive over there as an only fan sub his naivety and sweetness allows him to be easily manipulated and targeted by the other boys leading to so many hilarious plots throughout the show despite this he at least has somewhat of a backbone standing up to the boys in the moments when he's able to recognize that he's being taken advantage of let's go he's constantly experiencing some form of trauma and because of his genuine reactions to these events along with the Absurd ways the writers have found to traumatize him my God I what the freak was to these events along with the Absurd ways the writers have found to try oh my God it allows you to feel sympathetic while still finding it funny pip is different because there just simply isn't anything to his character he pretty much always reacts the same way no matter what the boys do to him there's almost never any emotional response as he just blindly accepts The Bullying that he receives because of this the jokes that are it's only fun to piss on people when they freaking hate it and as someone that is not pissed on a lot of people but only enough people to know this very very true truth about the world we exist in um I am very proud to say that as someone that only pisses on people that don't like it have achieved Nirvana written for pip are almost always external to his character ever funny because of pip the joke is whatever is happening to him let's go through some examples in season one's big gay Al's big gay boat ride when playing football pip doesn't get a helmet while everyone else does Chef is the one that has to explain to him why he doesn't get a helmet [Music] pep to school chemist for everybody yes but couldn't we rotate who doesn't have a helmet every week does it always have to be me throughout the episode pip continues to ask for a helmet and Chef continues to refuse even when they have an extra helmet and Mr Chef if Stanley doesn't show up can I use his helmet no pip I'm sorry now I admit that this is a funny gag but like I said it's not funny because of pip you could literally replace Pip with any other character in the show and it really wouldn't make a difference the only reason it even is PIP is because he's the character they've designated as the punching bag his first major role comes in the episode Damien in which a new kid becomes the target of the boy's bullying this new kid turns out to be the son of Satan but that's beside the point being relentlessly extensive that Satan's son would be named Damien bleed the only kid willing to talk to him is PIP as the bullying continues pip gives him some advice on how to avoid being bullied because clearly that's worked so well for him up he takes Pip's advice and of course that only makes the bullying worse eventually Damien realizes that if he bullies pip as well the other kids might like him so in an effort to get into Cartman's birthday party he summons demons to attack pip and the rest of the boys decide that he's pretty cool and let him in now this is a major opportunity for pip to finally show some kind of character some emotional response or really anything as his only friend just betrayed him so that he could have more friends so how does pip react [Music] oh what a splendid party again this is a funny joke to have Damien become a bully in order to fit in with all the other kids but again pip provides nothing to the joke at this point his character is literally just bullying victim he has no personality distinct actions or emotions calling him a punching bag might even be overstating his character since those at least can be kind of dangerous sometimes the first time we see any true character from pip at all is in season two's conjoined fetus lady in the episode pip shows actual emotion for the first time as he becomes enraged after the rest of the boys make fun of him for being French hey I get quite Disturbed when you call me that you should make fun of foreigners and besides I hate French people and while I def the only base thing he has ever said only could make a joke here about I don't hate French people I just hate the language that language is just ass but a British person being upset about being called French all concede that pip has a point since as we all know there have only ever been two French people in history that were actually cool that's true that's true it is a known fact that French people are kind ass actually come to think of it almost as bad as the language that they weren't even humans they were robots so I guess there's never been any cool French people damn using his rage pip ends up winning the world championship of dodgeball for South Park which of course no one cares about following this there are a few instances in which Pips shows some semblance of a character like in sexual harassment Panda when he sues Cartman or primarily in two guys naked in a hot tub in which Stan is stuck dude every single episode title sounds like just a bad porn movie like in the basement at a party with The Melvins as he calls them aka the losers this includes Dougie pip and his future replacement Butters this episode is sort of like a passing of the torch moment as this is the first episode in which Butters has a significant role Butters absolutely outshines pip in this episode giving us a taste of what it's like his voice is so much better it's not British which makes it even better better if an actual good punching bag character pip does have some decent moments but it just reaffirms the fact that his character is totally inferior as I've said the biggest issue that I have with Pip is that his character is just nothing it's not interesting or funny he is solely there to be picked on and despite the fact that he does have some decently funny moments every time he has a role in an episode I just can't help but think how much better it would have been if it were Butters instead of pit and while I'm willing to give the smallest bit of credit to him for walking so that Butters could run or more like tripping falling and slowly crawling so that Butters could run that all right all right it's the most I'm willing to give to him he was never interesting and in my opinion he is the worst character in the show so what did Matt and trade decide to do with the least interesting character in the entire show they decided to make an entire episode solely about him let's go now it's time to talk about it really I'm really dipping my dick right into the feces here for this video huh I'm really really dipping my penis all the way down to the bottom of the South Park Barrel okay so if I'm gonna do this I'm definitely not doing it alone [Music] yo do you want to watch the South Park episode Pip with me do we have to yes first I need to give you some very important context for this episode it is a direct retelling of the classic Charles Dickens novel Great Expectations now Charles Dickens novels fall into a very specific category of literature Academy which I have titled English literature from the mid-1800s that is incredibly boring and has no yay he said the thing the likable characters or any redeeming qualities now I know Dickens was hugely influential and I'm just not smart enough to understand it and blah blah I don't care it's incredibly boring what can I say I have one word for Charles Dickens boring you know I have two words for Charles Dickens boring trash this is an incredibly tedious and boring story and reading it is a fate that I would not wish upon my worst enemy based so knowing this context it really is the perfect setting for a character like pip we start off the episode with a live action segment with Malcolm McDowell discussing the story of pip and I will admit that this part was kind of amusing hello I'm a British person sorry that's kind of funny we follow pip as he goes to meet his parents or should I say his parents gravestones since they're dead oh cool as is the theme with many parts of this episode it's hard to tell if this is supposed to be a joke or not regardless it definitely sets the tone for the rest of the episode all of a sudden pip season escaped convict and frees him from his shackles and as we'll see later this convict really takes that to heart pip arrives to his home where he lives with his sister and her husband who is teaching pip to become a blacksmith his sister just screams non-stop for an entire minute about how pip needs to get a job makes sense she's a British lady at this point I was already struggling I don't know if I can do this my ears are already wanting them this is just my reaction to hearing British people speak so I mean there's nothing that South Park is doing that England hasn't done voices aren't that annoying through the whole episode right no however there was one part of the scene that I found at least slightly amusing the blacksmith dude when it's so bad it literally killed my phone my iPhone just died watching the PIP episode of South Park that's how bad it is well anyway you're gonna have to enjoy the rest of this episode without nothing or it finds a job listing for a boy to spend time with the daughter of the wealthiest woman in town and pip accepts the offer he arrives and meets the girl who is continuously berating pip and calling him some pretty creative insults makes sense I'm gonna start using these yeah these are good so the joke here is that she calls pip names and beats him up man what a fresh and interesting concept I don't know I I think that this is just a very good narrative storytelling on what British people should have coming British people can't cancel me there's no way I can get canceled by British people right that's just not gonna happen like let's be real here I've been canceled by lots of people but British people I don't think so that that has not been done before he meets the girls super creepy mother who it is revealed just wants to see men get their heart broken see men well at least they got the character designs like accurate to what British people look like so at this point we're about six minutes into the episode and all that we've gotten is a semi-funny British person joke a metal newspaper and an accurate retelling of an incredibly boring book except this time they're swearing [Applause] don't worry we're gonna get through this so now pip learns that an anonymous benefactor has paid for him to travel to London and become a gentleman pip arrives in London and shockingly the episode really turns it around here as the episode suddenly becomes a musical with all the characters breaking into song no I'm just kidding that doesn't happen I was like what I was like huh apparently that was the original plan for this episode but it was scrapped which is incredibly disappointing because that would have added at least something interesting instead pip meets his roommate pocket now were you curious as to why pocket I the creepy woman wanted to see pip get his heart broken not at all well guess what we get a minute and a half long Exposition dump from pocket with the only joke being his constant Corrections of Pips manners at the table including this absolute knee slapper nope just him talking he's suggesting that one should never pull out the wee-wee and check it for skywalks to the table don't be sorry pocket knocked a door oh man that that's funny and you know what I would tell you the reason for why she hates men but it literally does not matter at all so we go back to the only entertaining character in this episode a British person who discusses what yeah yeah they're fun aren't they learned during his time in London he then makes a remark that caught me so off guard that it was the first time I actually laughed during this episode and it was shown how to dance and how to eat box but that brief moment of joy that I experienced was quickly replaced with more pip pip goes back to the creepy woman now as a gentleman because he's in love with her daughter and absolutely nothing interesting happens he takes Estella that's the girl's name didn't mention that because who cares to the ball and again nothing interesting happens he confesses his love and we finally get another attempt at a joke which was enough to make me blow extra air out of my nose just one moment I don't remember this okay oh that's good there we go this is reminding me of high school also the animations for their dancing here is is kind of funny I'll admit that so then pip goes back to the creepy lady who reveals that it was her plan all along to break his heart and for the first time the episode shifts from directly retelling the events of Great Expectations as the woman reveals her plans to fuse her soul with her daughters with a Genesis device so that she can break men's hearts for even longer using my Genesis device okay uh great finally something kind of interesting let's go and she sent robot monkeys out to kill pip hell yeah this is awesome come on it was just getting into oh my no come on no no no no it's a dream excuse there's no way there is no way bro I knew going into this that this would be the worst episode and I'm still disappointed okay so we learned that Pips benefactor was actually the convict that he Freed at the beginning who was so moved by Pip's actions that he you know what who cares this scene is another minute of absolutely nothing but exposition they all go back to the creepy woman and as oh this is sort of pip tries to free Estella from the machine the rest of them fight off the robot monkeys what was trying to do as a favor trying to put us out of our misery pit proves to her that she still has a heart after she killed 25 baby bunnies because she's not willing to kill the 26th baby bunny meanwhile pocket tries to stop the men used in the device from crying because the creepy lady needs their tears for the procedure and one of the men say a line that was funny in a way that it was definitely not intended to be me pip ends up oh God bathing her and a British person comes back to declare that everyone lives happily ever after except for pocket who died of hepatitis B haha how funny they did the same joke better in Woodland Critter Christmas but thank God the episode is finally over and we can all finally get to the conclusion all right what are your thoughts that's 22 minutes of my life I'm never getting back again damn all right all right that's yeah that's about it I guess [Music] this episode falls into the same trap that some of the other worst episodes of the show do the parody is too accurate if I've said it once I've said it a thousand times parody does not equal funny if you parody an annoying character from a movie by making a character that's even more annoying you have become what you're parodying If You parody an incredibly boring story by making an incredibly boring story you get this episode now I know a lot of people have Nostalgia tied to this episode as it reminds them of the time that they were forced to read great expectations as a kid and I can completely understand why this episode May hold a special place in your heart yeah it is totally fine if you like pip the episode or the character that is your opinion and I respect that I mean sort of I don't know if I would respect it if you like the character but if you like the episode I do respect that I do expect a love of I I respect people loving parody even if it's not funny parody I think parody As A Commentary device works very well sometimes as well if that's what you're there for which is why I'm allowed to have my opinion too and in my opinion pip is the single worst character and episode in South Park history based but you know if I can get real with you guys for a second I've been seeing so much pip hate in recent times and I can't help but feel like I'm at least partially to blame for this whether I like it or not a lot of people are influenced by my opinions I mean I don't blame them since my opinions are always correct but it's becoming a bit of a weight on my shoulders I mean this person on Tumblr wrote a 15 paragraph essay about the increase in PIP haters and listed me as one of the main [Laughter] that's hilarious and causes of this sure I might think that the only people that like pip are all the 15 year olds that think he's cute in the South Park Discord server but I shouldn't be saying that online I should be spreading positivity no you shouldn't be you're a YouTuber self-aware negative buy incredibly hot take for the stream and for the end of the video ladies and gentlemen fake positivity is worse than self-aware negativity in my opinion when I hear someone making believe they're overly wholesome and talking about all these wholesome things and beautiful life and the world is amazing and spreading positivity and I know that behind the scenes that person's an [ __ ] because trust me it's annoying as a heck and I know a couple of people like that online that I'm not gonna get into right now I guess but when I see that it makes me very sad sad at the world sad at life do I really want to be spreading hate like this yes yes you do of course I do which is why you too can become a certified pip hater by becoming a channel member for only three dollars a month features such as exclusive
