"Super Fun Time" is the seventh episode in the twelfth season of the American animated television series South Park. The 174th episode of the series overall, it originally aired on Comedy Central in the United States on April 23, 2008.[1][2] In the episode, Cartman and Butters narrowly escape a horrific hostage situation at South Park's Pioneer Village, where historical reenactors take their jobs far too seriously. The episode was rated TV-MA-LV for strong language and violence in the United States. This is the last South Park episode produced in 4:3, from the next episode and onward, all other episodes will be produced in 16:9.
The episode was written and directed by South Park co-creator Trey Parker. During pre-production, the episode was under a working alternative title "The Living Museum" until it was changed later on. The show's plot was largely influenced by the film Die Hard.[3]
