"Jakovasaurs" is the fourth episode of the third season of the American animated television series South Park, and the 35th episode of the series overall. It parodies the Star Wars character Jar Jar Binks from The Phantom Menace, which had been released four weeks before the episode aired, and it expresses how "betrayed" Parker and Stone felt as Star Wars fans, by how "stupid" the character was.[1] The episode originally aired on Comedy Central on June 16, 1999.
In the episode, Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny go camping in the woods. Cartman discovers a species that was thought to be extinct. This species is very annoying, and everyone in town, except Cartman, wants to get rid of them.
The episode was written by series creator Trey Parker & Matt Stone and David Goodman and directed by Stone in his last directorial work for an episode until Cupid Ye aired in 2023.
