Pretty lame. So not only are images of Muhammed not allowed, but he can't even be mentioned as well?
Plus the entire end speech was censored. Whatever message the creators were trying to convey is completely cut off by doing this. It's a great anniversary episode with all its callbacks to previous ones, but it's also kind of unwatchable in the state that it was aired

http://www.southparkstudios.com/news/3878A Statement from Matt and Trey
In the 14 years we've been doing South Park we have never done a show that we couldn't stand behind. We delivered our version of the show to Comedy Central and they made a determination to alter the episode. It wasn't some meta-joke on our part. Comedy Central added the bleeps. In fact, Kyle's customary final speech was about intimidation and fear. It didn't mention Muhammad at all but it got bleeped too. We'll be back next week with a whole new show about something completely different and we'll see what happens to it.
How sad it is when an artist is prevented from expressing their message. I wonder if we'll ever get to see the episode as it was originally created before the censorship

We still have DVD and Blu-ray hopefully.
And, at least we know who Cartman's real father is now.
