Ep 1. Cartman Gets an Anal Probe

In the first episode of South Park, titled "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe," we are introduced to the small Colorado mountain town of South Park and its four main characters: Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny. The episode starts with the group of boys going on their first day back to school after summer vacation. They are excited to see each other again and discuss their summer plans, but things soon take a strange turn.

As the group watches a mysterious object hovering in the sky above the town, one of them, Cartman, is suddenly abducted by aliens. The aliens perform experiments on Cartman, including conducting an anal probe. Meanwhile, Stan, Kyle, and Kenny try to navigate their way through a strange government conspiracy involving the aliens and a cover-up attempt by the US military.

Throughout the episode, we see the typical irreverent and often crude humor that South Park is known for. However, the episode also touches on themes of paranoia and government distrust, and highlights the absurdity of some popular conspiracy theories.

As the boys try to uncover the truth behind the alien invasion, they are joined by other eccentric characters in the town, including a man claiming to be a government agent and a hippie who warns of a coming apocalypse. The group ultimately comes together to try to save Cartman and uncover the truth before it's too late.

As the first episode of the long-running series, "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe" sets the tone for the show going forward. The episode features a mix of outrageous humor and social commentary that would come to define South Park as a cultural touchstone. While it may not be for everyone, fans of the series will find plenty to enjoy in this first installment.
