Talk:The Death of Eric Cartman

Untitled
I think there should be a mention that the title is a reference to the beavis and butthead episode "beavis and butthead are dead"
 * I think that there shouldn't be, unless you can cite it.Alastairward (talk) 11:47, 15 August 2008 (UTC)


 * It doesn't sound like a reference to that, to be honest. In any case, that title itself was a reference to the line "Rosencrantz and Gildenstern are dead" in Hamlet.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.81.254.231 (talk) 19:57, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Coincidence?
I don't think there is any proof of this, but I find this episode to be a parody of "Ghost Whisperer" and "My Name Is Earl"... If only these shows existed at the time this episode originally aired!!!! All of the plot is suspiciously similar to those two shows, that, I repeat, weren't aired at the time of this South Park episode. It seems very weird to me. Is there any reference to this, or was it just coincidence? Is this episode based on any other similar shows? --212.183.217.154 18:28, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Cannibal remark. Need a verification
On the bus stop Cartman makes a remark about a chick on the news that had her left tittie cut off. It may refer to the German cannibal that cut off his girlfriend's left breast, cooked and ate it 2005. I am not from the USA and there miight have been some other similar cases in the USA I know nothing about. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ptasiek83 (talk • contribs) 20:03, 10 May 2007 (UTC).

Another movie
There are also references to a movie "Ghost".

Errors
I think the errors on the page should stick, because Cartman only tore a strip of skin down one side of each piece. Also, there were only about half a dozen pieces of chicken on his plate, whereas there were more in the box when the boys opened it. Also, Cartman believes he's a ghost, but still seems to be able to record a song and not be convinced he isn't.

Cultural References
Cite or they remain here;


 * The episode is a parody of The Sixth Sense.
 * Butters is put through various treatments similar to the ones seen in The Exorcist.
