Can You Name This South Park Character?

695 Shares

What started as a crude, swear-happy alternative to traditional animated television shows has since become one of the leading platforms for popular culture critiques. South Park, created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, debuted on Comedy Central in 1997 to fairly poor ratings, but the show picked up steam in subsequent seasons and is now widely regarded as one of the best animated series of all-time. In fact, it's hard to believe, but Parker and Stone have now produced 20 seasons and are contracted to produce new episodes through 2019, meaning the show will trail only The Simpsons as the longest-running sitcom in American television history.

The show prominently features four foul-mouthed fourth graders - Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, Kenny McCormick, and Eric Cartman - but it's the secondary characters which provide most of the humor. From Stan's dad to the teachers, counselors, and students at South Park Elementary to the political and law enforcement figures, there's no shortage of laughs in the imagined Colorado town. Like The Simpsons, it has done a masterful job of bringing the town which its main characters reside in to life through continued secondary character development. Because of that, if you're a true South Park fan, you should have no trouble identifying these characters.

Question 1

Which character is this?

This fourth grader is the only black child in South Park and is often hanging out with Craig and Clyde, though he has often been included in main story arcs alongside Stan, Kyle, Kenny, and Cartman. He's in the pilot episode of the series as a background character, while his first major role comes in the "Cartman's Silly Hate Crime 2000" episode, in which Cartman is charged with a hate crime and sentenced to juvenile prison for throwing a rock at him.

Question 2

Which character is this?

A loving but stern suburban mother, this character is the receptionist at Tom's Rhinoplasty and has backed various movements in South Park such as the ban of Chinpokomon dolls. She is also often caught up in many of the fads that come to South Park, including holistic medicine and atheism, both of which are featured in the "Cherokee Hair Tampons" and the "Red Hot Catholic Love" episodes. Her first name is the same name as Trey Parker's mother, so if you by some chance happen to know her name, you'll have no trouble with this one.

Question 3

Which character is this?

This fourth grader is best known as being the first girl in South Park Elementary to develop breasts. In the "Bebe's Boobs Destroy Society" episode, she essentially entrances the entire male population of the school with her chest, which leads her to become the most popular girl in Grade 4. She is good friends with Wendy Testaburger, but, in one episode, attempted to kill her with a handgun; instead, she misfired and hit Kenny. She is voiced by the show's supervising producer, Jennifer Howell.

Question 4

Which character is this?

Prominently featured in early episodes, this soft-speaking character has a propensity for badness, or at least did in her past. She was revealed as a hermaphrodite in an early episode and was said to have had sexual relations with practically the entire town of South Park, including the Denver Broncos. She's named after an ex-fiance of Trey Parker and her promiscuous nature isn't an accident; Parker called off the engagement after he discovered she had cheated on him multiple times.

Question 5

Which character is this?

If you're unable to correctly answer this one, then perhaps this quiz isn't for you. One of the four main characters on the show, this is the one who, in early seasons, died in every single episode only to re-appear in the proceeding episodes with no explanation. He was seemingly killed off for good in the fifth season, but returned a year later and has since only died sporadically; in the last couple seasons, he hasn't died once. He also has a lengthy rap sheet, having been arrested multiple times throughout the series.

Question 6

Which character is this?

Another one of the four main fourth graders in the show, this character is best known for his religion and his adopted Canadian brother. He's often displayed as being defensive about his religion - in part due to Eric Cartman's constant pestering and harassment - but it's clear he has mixed feelings on religion as a whole. Along with Stan Marsh, he's the voice of reason among the fourth graders and is one of the more level-headed students. He's a talented basketball player and, in one particular episode, had surgery to become tall and black so he could make the all-star team.

Question 7

Which character is this?

"What, what, WHAAAAT!" That quote is practically all you need to know to have an idea of which character is below. The mother of one of the fourth grade students, this character often expresses shock and outrage with the above quote and leads the charge against all things offensive and dangerous. In South Park: Bigger, Long, & Uncut, she leads the charge against the vulgar Terrance and Phillip movie and establishes the Mothers Against Canada group, which leads into the catchy "Blame Canada" song.

Question 8

Which character is this?

The third of the four main characters in the show, this one is known for being the most crude, not just in his words, but his attitude toward people of different race, religion, and sexual orientation. He's a whiny, needy, ignorant kid who, for the most part, is reluctantly accepted as a friend by Stan, Kyle, and Kenny. Unlike those three characters, however, he's mostly referred to as his last name. He's a favorite character of both Trey Parker and Matt Stone and was created with All in the Family's Archie Bunker as an inspiration.

Question 9

Which character is this?

More than any other father in South Park, this one finds himself at the center of outlandish ventures. Despite being portrayed as a gullible, absent-minded simpleton, he's actually a geologist with a doctorate degree and, in recent seasons, has been revealed to have a side job as popular recording artist Lorde - yes, with the help of autotune and some lazy singing, he's the voice behind the worldwide recording artist. He's also known to have an unhealthy addiction to masturbation, alcohol, and other vices. In one episode, he sought to intentionally give himself cancer so he could receive medicinal marijuana.

Question 10

Which character is this?

This character is a jaded and uninterested fourth grade teacher at South Park Elementary who has been fired multiple times. In early seasons, he's depicted as a homosexual who is angered by the fact his own father wouldn't molest him as a child. He later gets a sex change operation in season nine and becomes known as Janet, but eventually reverses the surgery and becomes a man again. Despite his sexuality, he has no problems making fun of gay people; in fact, his hatred of political correctness earned him the Republication nomination for president in season 19. He was reluctantly elected president of the United States the following season, despite doing everything in his power to lose.

Question 11

Which character is this?

This fourth grade character is first introduced in season two and is depicted as a frequent drinker of coffee and conspiracy theory pusher. When Kenny appeared to be dead for good in season six, he was brought in as the eventual replacement for Stan, Kyle, and Cartman. However, when Kenny returned, he was pushed to background roles, although he still appears sporadically. He's incredibly prone to panic and is easily excitable, which often makes him a pawn in Cartman's plots.

Question 12

Which character is this?

Voiced by Trey Parker, this fourth grader was first introduced in season four. He's confined to a wheelchair and the only word he can say is his first name, which he pronounces in a variation of ways depending on the situation. He once served as the front man of a successful band originally titled The Lords of The Underworld and has a super hero alter ego titled Iron Maiden. His parents, Richard and Helen, are revealed in the "T.M.I" episode to have the same physical disability as he does as well as the ability to only say their own names.

Question 13

Which character is this?

Originally a background character with no speaking lines, this character was prominently featured in the "Elementary School Musical" episode, when he replaces Stan as the fourth friend of the main group after Stan takes an interest in musicals to maintain his relationship with Wendy Testaburger. He has a lisp and is often criticized by the students at South Park Elementary - primarily Eric Cartman - for having diabetes (one of his aliases is even Captain Diabetes). He was once beat up by Butters Stotch, but the students appear to be close friends.

Question 14

Which character is this?

Finally, the fourth of the main cast of friends in the show, this character might just be the most level-headed of them all (he frequently sums up the lessons learned in the episode), although he often finds himself at the center of some controversies. He has been arrested for illegally downloading music and has committed mischief such as filing a false police report stating that his parents abused him and attempted to murder Eric Cartman. He's in love with Wendy Testaburger and his super hero alter ego is the incredibly-lame Toolshed.

Question 15

Which character is this?

This seventh grade character is depicted as an ill-tempered girl who, particularly in earlier seasons, beat up her younger brother. She's a passionate fan of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Friends, Britney Spears, and Sadie Dakota (a Hannah Montana parody character). She is rarely seen with any friends her own age and, in one episode, is shown to have a 22-year-old boyfriend. She has no self confidence due to the headgear she is forced to wear, which is the apparent reason why she continually takes out her anger on her younger brother.

Question 16

Which character is this?

One of the several mentally-challenged students at South Park Elementary, this character debuted in the "Up the Down Steroid" episode in season eight in which he sold illegal steroids to Jimmy Valmer, who was participating in the Special Persons Olympics. He's not quite a regular character, but has appeared in additional episodes such as "Crippled Summer" and "Handicar," often accompanied by his much larger, but less diabolic lackey. In season 19, he was made editor of the Super School Newspaper.

Question 17

Which character is this?

The current principal of South Park Elementary, this character was introduced in the season 19 premiere as a boisterous, loud authority figure who ironically uses violence as a means to enact his politically-correct agenda. In addition to serving as the school principal, he's an alumnus of Texas A&M University and member of the prominent Delta fraternity featured in season 19. His appearance in the show was originally only planned for one episode, but Trey Parker and Matt Stone liked the character so much they decided to keep him.

Question 18

Which character is this?

A guidance counselor at South Park Elementary and head of public health for South Park, this character is best known for his way of speaking, which often involves him saying "m'kay" at the end of sentences. In fact, in South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, he sings a catchy song to help the children swear less titled with the hook "It's easy, mmmm'kay." He once taught the fourth grade class after the death of Ms. Choksondik, but was eventually replaced by Mr. Garrison. In one particular episode, it was revealed he had a hoarding disorder, though this was later cured by dream therapy.

Question 19

Which character is this?

These two Canadian television characters are the favorites of the children in South Park, particularly Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny, who, in South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, go see the Asses of Fire movie multiple times. Their brand of humor is as crude as that of the boys in the show and, as suggested by the film title, their main source of humor is farting. The comedy duo is essentially Canadian royalty in the show and have even won a Nobel Peace Prize. One of them is even referenced as having dated Celine Dion in the past.

Question 20

Which character is this?

The father of one of the students at South Park Elementary, this character is regarded as the poorest man in South Park and, as such, is a heavy alcoholic who is drunk most of the time. He and his wife are often shown either verbally or physically abusing each other, though, when he is sober, they're very caring and loving toward each other. He used to work in a pizza factory as a teenager, but he currently has no job, aside from apparently running a meth lab with his wife, which would explain how he gets money to support his alcoholism.

Question 21

Which character is this?

This character wasn't originally part of the show when it debuted in 1997, but he has since become one of the major characters in the series, thanks to his increased role in season six following the death of Kenny. He is the innocent and gullible friend of the boys, who is often exploited by Cartman in villainous plots which typically result in him being grounded by his parents. As innocent as he is, he launches his own evil plots through his super-villain alias of Professor Chaos, many of which had already been done on The Simpsons.

Question 22

Which character is this?

Like several of the characters on the show, this one was created as a one-time character but stuck around due to his popularity among fans and the show's creators. He debuted as a rival to Timmy Burch in the "Cripple Fight" episode, but the two have since become best friends. Despite his handicap, he's an eternally-optimistic, smart, and relatively popular student at South Park Elementary. He is, however, extremely competitive, having once taken steroids to excel at the Special Persons Olympics. He's also a stand-up comedian who follows up his jokes with the phrase, "Wow, what a great audience."

Question 23

Which character is this?

This character debuted in the "Weight Gain 4000" episode as a Native American in a school play being performed for Kathie Lee Gifford. He's considered one of the least intelligent fourth graders at South Park Elementary, but has at one time dated Bebe Stevens, one of the more popular fourth graders in the school. He's one of the few students in the grade who seem to have a conscience, as evidenced by his unwillingness to participate in various plots. In the "Mysterion Rises" episode, it was revealed that his superhero alter ego is Mosquito, a character easily defeated by Cartman.

Question 24

Which character is this?

Arguably the most popular fourth grade girl, this character is the reason for Stan's frequent vomiting in earlier seasons as he is often nervous around her. She's one of the few characters at the school who seem to be able to stand up to Eric Cartman and, in one particular episode, severely beat him up, although this isn't much of an accomplishment as Cartman isn't regarded as physically strong. Like Stan, she is often a voice of reason in the show and appears very intelligent and aware of the problems in the world.

Question 25

Which character is this?

Though this character is married and has a son, he is shown as bi-curious in an early episode of the show. His homosexual activities almost lead to the destruction of his marriage, but he ultimately suppresses his urges and commits to his wife and family. Ironically, like Mr. Garrison, he appears homophobic at different instances throughout the show; he once sent his son to a Christian gay-to-straight conversion camp where they could "pray the gay away." He's also an alcoholic who has been revealed to assault his wife at times, which is a stark contrast to how he was first presented as a typical sitcom dad.

Question 26

Which character is this?

For the first six seasons of the show, this character was the only police officer in South Park and is primarily known for his ineptitude, though he does have his moments, primarily in the "Chickenlover" episode, when chaos overtook the city following his retirement. In a recent episode, he was fired by the force for shooting an unarmed six-year-old Latino boy, but was temporarily reinstated shortly after, only to be fired again for shooting innocent children pretending to be ninjas.

Question 27

Which character is this?

Introduced as a stereotypical sort of mad scientist, this character's specialty is engineering animals with more than one buttocks. He is responsible for making a four-assed monkey, four-assed mongoose, and four-assed ostrich, as well as a mix of a gorilla and mosquito and a mutant clone of Stan Marsh. The character is a parody of Marlon Brando's Dr. Moreau character in the film The Island of Dr. Moreau. In fact, character is even the leader of the North American Marlon Brando Look-Alikes, or, "the other NAMBLA."

Question 28

Which character is this?

Voiced by Trey Parker, this character only appeared in the "With Apologies to Jesse Jackson" season 11 episode. In that episode, he comes to South Park Elementary to give a talk to the students, but is immediately laughed at by Cartman, who finds his diminutive stature (he suffers from dwarfism) hilarious. He eventually feuds with Cartman, who continues to laugh at him throughout the episode, until the two fight. Despite apparently owning a black belt in karate, he is beaten up by Cartman, but later catches him off guard with a kick to the groin.

Question 29

Which character is this?

Before PC Principal was brought in as the new principal of South Park Elementary, it was this character who ran the chaotic school. Despite the apparent ineptitude of the teachers and counselors on staff, she seemed to be decent at her job, keeping things in order, for the most part. In one episode, she is revealed to be a survivor of breast cancer and a strong female rights activist. She was replaced with PC Principal in a season 19 episode because a student referred to rape as a "hot Cosby."

Question 30

Which character is this?

The first LGBTQ figure on the show, this character debuted in season one with his town-famous boat ride, which he used as a gay animal sanctuary to protect gay animals who had apparently been rejected by their homophobic owners. He's the embodiment of all stereotypical homosexual behavior and, upon being asked how he is doing, responds with his catchphrase, "I'm super! Thanks for asking." He hasn't been featured much in recent seasons, but is currently married to Mr. Slave and was seen with his husband as an effort to make the town appear more diverse when the Whole Foods representative visited South Park.

Question 31

Which character is this?

This character runs the South Park Church and, at times, is a parody of organized religion as he believes that everyone is doomed to go to hell, including Timmy Burch, who will end up there because he is unable to confess his sins as all he can voice is his name. He's also unconventional in several ways, going outside of Vatican Law by sleeping with several women in South Park, including Cartman's mom. In one episode, horrified at the discovery of priests having relations with young boys, he attempts to change the "Holy Doctrine" to enable priests to have sex out of wedlock.

Question 32

Which character is this?

This character first appeared in the season one "Weight Gain 4000" episode and, as told on the commentary by Matt Stone and Trey Parker, she was created as a sophisticated and egotistical community leader. An alumnus of Princeton University, she often acts as though she is better than everyone else and previously held the belief that the town is a dump; in one episode, she is overheard on a microphone stating her disgust at being "stuck in this stupid town with all these rednecks."

Question 33

Which character is this?

Though he appears more qualified than Officer Barbrady, this character, who is the leader of the Park County Police Force, is actually quite inept and gullible. In the episode "Cartman's Incredible Gift," in which a serial killer runs rampant through South Park, he believes Cartman has psychic powers that can help capture the killer and, as a result, kills and arrests numerous people whom Cartman alleged as the serial killer. His most famous line, which has since become somewhat of a meme, is his response of "nice" when Kyle tells him a female teacher at his school is having relations with a male student.

Question 34

Which character is this?

Voiced by Matt Stone, this character is a fourth grade student often friendly with the four main characters, but leads his own group of friends which includes Clyde and Jimmy. In stark contrast to the other children in the show, he speaks with a rather deep voice. In the episode "The List," he was chosen by the girls as the cutest boy in the fourth grade. He also has a learned habit from his parents of flipping people off, something he once did to Principal Victoria, which earned him detention.

Question 35

Which character is this?

This sexually-starved character appears in "The Death Camp of Tolerance" episode as a teacher's assistant to Mr. Garrison. In the episode, Mr. Garrison discovers he can sue the education board and become rich if he is fired for being gay, so he hires this character and proceeds to perform sexual acts on him in the classroom. Along with Kyle and Mr. Garrison, he once went to New York in an attempt to kill the cast of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy because he was upset that the show was turning straight people into metrosexuals.
