Amazon.co.uk Review
For those South Park fans who have wondered if their beloved animated series would lose its satirical edge after a decade on the air, the Complete Tenth Season boxed set provides a resounding negative. Creators Matt Park and Trey Stone come out swinging with the season opener, "The Return of Chef," which addresses both the media frenzy churned up over the headline-grabbing "Trapped in the Closet" episode from the previous season, as well as the departure of Isaac Hayes, who voiced the well-loved Chef (and netted the series its highest ratings for a debut episode in years). Not content to leave one religion alone, the show tackles the 2006 riots over the depiction of Mohammed in Dutch newspapers (and delivers a much-deserved zing to Family Guy) in the two-part "Cartoon Wars" (the revelation of Family Guy's real writers is among the funniest notions ever penned for South Park) and intelligent design in "Go God Go" (Mrs. Garrison is up in arms over being forced to teach evolution until the arrival of Richard Dawkins changes her mind). Also in the show's firing line are such sacred cows as Oprah Winfrey (Towelie pens a faux memoir a la A Million Little Pieces in "A Million Little Fibers"), Al Gore (who attempts to drum up interest in his hunt for the mythical "ManBearPig"), environmentalists (who create a new form of pollution with their hybrids in "Smug Alert!"), the popular online game World of Warcraft ("Make Love, Not Warcraft," which earned the series an Emmy nomination) and George W. Bush (who tangles with Kyle over 9/11 in "Mystery of the Urinal Deuce"). Of course, South Park wouldn't be South Park without moments of jaw-dropping bad taste, and viewers are treated to not one but two jokes about the death of Steve Irwin (including his appearance at a Halloween party thrown by Satan in the critically reviled "Hell on Earth 2006), children with terminal diseases, teacher-student sexual relations, and a whole host of bodily functions and absurdly graphic violence (the latter is provided by a trio of serial killers in "Hell on Earth 2006").--Paul Gaita

Synopsis
What began as a construction-paper film short evolved into a veritable pop-culture phenomenon for Trey Parker and Matt Stone's outrageous animated comedy series, South Park. Centreed on the hilarious misadventures of four potty-mouthed grade-schoolers in the perpetually wintry environs of South Park, Colorado, the series skewers the vagaries of the modern American cultural landscape with politically incorrect humour and satirical plotlines ranging from homophobia and terrorism to boy bands and talking poo. This collection presents all 14 episodes from the long-running series' 10th series.

South Park - Getting better and better
Like a fine wine, South Park is only getting better with age. Dont listen to those who say it's quality is decreasing, let them keep watching Family Guy, we dont need them. This is a fantastic season, with excellent episodes that already go onto the list of all time greats. Make love not warcraft, Go God Go/ Go God Go XII and Mystery of the Urinal Deuce are the stand out episodes in my opinion thats not to say the other episodes are poor they are not, every episode in it's own way is full to the brim with quality something I personally believe none of it's animated rivals can match.

It's a fantastic season, well worth the money to buy. Roll on season 11.

Fantastic season with many classic episodes
South Park season ten means business, it is an improved step up over season 9 as it takes risks and as a consequence is often hilarious. Pick of the bunch this season is the two parter "Cartoon Wars" (basically a piss take of family guy and a satire of the war on terror), "Make Love Not Warcraft" (a massively popular and inventive episode) also "Miss Teacher Bangs a Boy" (simple storyline but oh so funny) and how could I forget the end of Chef or "The Return of Chef" which sees the classic character return to South Park but he's not his usual self queue the jokes. Like every season there are a couple of duff episodes here, "Manbearpig" and "Stanleys Cup" which are not terrible but they are hardly classics. So for a final cliched comment to finish off this review, South Park Season 10 is an excellent example that the show has nowhere near lost its comedy edge and can still produce gold when it ups the tempo.

Languages and subtitles.
I own all the south park seasons, the only problem i had with this one is that there is not spanish dubbed or subtitles, and i had to send it to spain to my brother who is a fan too, so i would like to know if there is gonna be another edition with these features. And by the way,it would be nice if amazon put the languages and subtitles of the dvd's they sell, for some people is important. thank you.
