to let my 5 year old watch some South Park ?

I was watching some South Park at my brothers house when I saw the "Mr Hankey the christmas poo". It was such a funny scene where this poo comes to life and starts singing and dancing around the bathroom and only this boy knows that Nr Hankey exists and when his Dad comes in there is poo all around the bathroom and the boy is holding Nr Hankey, who has turned back to a normal poo and he say "Say something Nr Hankey" and the poo just flops over in his hands.
I thought my 5 year old would love this scene as she's in to toilet humor and also has issues with constipation, so I thought it might help her to see the funny side of going to the toilet. At the moment, she dosn't like going.
Anyway, I played her this scene and she was laughing so much, she thought it was hillarious. It was making me cry with laughter, watching her laughing at it. I stopped it after that scene as there's a lot of swearing in it which I don't want her to hear.
Anyway, it seemed to work as she's now keen to try on the toilet for a "Nr Hankey" and if she manages it she's so excited and starts singing the song.
I'm glad it worked, but I'm sure I'm going to get a flamming. To be honest I think I deserve one. It's not suitable for her age, but it was very funny and it worked. Wink

I used to love South Park and Mr Hanky was def one of my favourites. Another was 'scuzzlegut'? who creeps about & 'weaves baskets', can't remember much about it except I thought it hilarious Grin

It was Scuzzlebut, one of his arms was a piece of celery and I think one of his legs was Patrick Demspsey!!

I adore SP - but no way would I let the kids watch it - too much violence and badly beeped out swear words!

Ike is very cute though - apparently he is voiced by some of the kids of the people in the studio Shock Do you remember the one where he has an affair with a teacher "Nice!!" Great episode exposing the hypocrisy of people's attitudes to teacher/pupil relationships.
