South Park Guitar Hero

Last week's episode of South Park, had Stan and Kyle chipping in to buy Guitar Hero, becoming obsessed (as everyone does) then, upon breaking 100,000 points, obtaining a talent manager, and becoming Guitar Hero Rock Stars! The manager eventually decides that Kyle is dragging Stan down, and that he'll never reach 1 million points with Kyle in tow, so he suggests that Stan play with a new partner, Thad. Drama ensues. Stan starts sneaking around playing "Heroin Hero" blowing gigs, Kyle plays in dive bars as a has-been...genius!

The episode is pure perfection, playing on the pop culture obsession that is Guitar Hero, while accurately trivializing the rock star lifestyle. Its brilliant! Check out comedycentral.com for more!
