Original Title: TIL South Park started with cardboard cut-outs, inspired by Terry Gilliam’s Monty Python style. The 1997 pilot - "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe" - took three months to animate. Today, episodes are finished in a few days with computer animation, letting the show parody current events in real time.
