MATT STONE AND TREY PARKER TALK SOUTH PARK AND BOOK OF MORMON IN NEW INTERVIEW

The creators behind the hit Broadway musical Book of Mormon, Matt Stone and Trey Parker are promoting the hell out of its first cross-country tour but with South Park set to premier in the next few weeks you can tell the guys are starting to think about it. In a new interview with HitFix, South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker talk the talk about what makes the characters of the hit animated series so fresh even after all these years:

So now that you’re older, do you feel differently about “South Park”?
Trey: Because of the fact we still write and direct every episode ourselves, we haven’t handed it off, even if it isn’t a better show it is a fresh show because we want to do something different all the time. And we don’t want to just do Cartman’s fat and likes Cheesy Poofs. It’s funny, it’s like being in a band and having all these albums to look back on and go, oh, that’s where we were in our lives then, and this is where we’re at now.
Matt: The story lines, luckily we created a town, because there are more story lines that are the adults. 
Trey: I was all about being Stan, but now I love being Stan’s dad. I identify more with him now.

South Park premiers September 26th on Comedy Central, check your local listings!
