I wouldn't let my children watch South Park until they reach age 16 - 18. If your daughter is a fan of the Jonas Brothers and doesn't take kindly to seeing them mocked, she probably shouldn't see it. Keeping in mind the fact that the episode, as well as the majority of their other episodes, features harsh profanities, violence, and very crude sexual humor, I definitely wouldn't expose her to that! South Park is rated TV-MA (Mature Audiences) for a reason!

If she asks if she can see it, I would say something along the lines of: "Sorry, honey, you're too young for this kind of stuff." Even if the Jonas Brothers are featured, the creators of South Park are STILL the creators of South Park (a show which features a talking piece of excrement as a character).

The Jonas Brothers may be an easy target for a show like South Park, and perhaps that's Matt and Trey took the satire a step higher in portraying an American comedic icon-turned-cynical corporate mastermind as the true villain. I've learned a lot about the JB since learning that the season premiere was going to skewer them, and I have to say I respect and admire their willingness to stay pure. That being said - they're a boy band, which means they're part of a phenomenon that will inevitably invite at least some ridicule from their non-listening audience!

JL, are you serious, 16 to 18? What are you, a mormon?
South Park should be shown to 11-12y.o. kids, if not earlier.
That's when they start having their own opinions, and South Park, due to its use of hyperbole in their plots, is great in showing them another side of the world, exposing the absurdity in every day life.
In fact, you should give your kids some snippets of Carlin, so that they understand they are free to their own thoughts. Humor is ageless, it should be a crime to take it away from a child like you plan on doing.

I thought it was a dead-on commentary on how Disney operates. To quote Mickey: 'We couldn't have little girls hands reaching for your crotch if you weren't wearing a purity ring'.

Hilarious and accurate.

Personally, this should be required viewing for parents of pre-teen girls. It exposes Disney for their sick and twisted practices, and their attempts to sell snake oil to Christians.

Well I feel it's not the show in paticular that's bad, it's the language they use. Shows that have real sexual condent [but don't curse much] get a TV-14 and viewer descresion is advised note. With South Park the show is so stupid its funny, thus needs not plot, and because of this they need to spice it up a little. Trey [Parker] and Matt [Stone] make little 8, 9 year old boys curse and stuff for the fact that it's shown to be funny to most people [with that kind of sense of humor]. My advise would be, if you raised your child right s/he should know that if s/he watches it, not to repeat it. If you feel that your child would disobey you and go on cursing rampages if s/he just heard a few, then don't let them watch it. It really only depends on how you have raised your child to know rights and wrongs. {I watched South Park at age 11 and my mother said as long as i don't repeat i would be fine}
