Ralph gets hit by a school bus driven by Otto, who remarks "Oh my god, I killed Kenny!". 460 "The Squirt and the Whale" The chalkboard gag of this episode is a reference to the South Park episode, "201", which caused controversy after Comedy Central censored a depiction of the Muslim prophet Muhammad in the episode. 24 522 "Gorgeous Grampa" During the song "High to Be Loathed", Mr. Burns mentions Eric Cartman, and makes his shadow, among lots of other villains. 26 556 "Treehouse of Horror XXV" One of the variations of the Simpson family is based on the character designs from South Park.

Picture Season Episode number Episode name Reference 6 86 "Simpsons Already Did It" Butters Stotch, as Professor Chaos, tries to get the town to 'pay' by attempting what he thinks are diabolical schemes, but he finds that all of his ideas were already done on The Simpsons: Butters wants to block out the sun, as seen in "Who Shot Mr. Burns? (Part One)". Butters cuts the head off of a statue, as seen in "The Telltale Head". Butters plans to sell a monorail to the town and then leave with all of their money, as seen in "Marge vs. the Monorail". Butters plans to start a website that tells rumors about the townspeople, as seen in "The Computer Wore Menace Shoes". Butters will bury a skeleton with wings so people will think it's an angel, as seen in "Lisa the Skeptic". Butters will bring the World Cup to town to incite a soccer riot, as seen in "The Cartridge Family". Butters will have beer cans shaken up by electronic paint mixers, as seen in "So It's Come to This: A Simpsons Clip Show". Butters then gets the idea to build a machine that removes the cherries from chocolate-covered cherries and replaces them with mayonnaise filling. However, his idea's originality is cut short when he sees a promo on TV for a new (fictitious) episode of the Simpsons, where Bart does the exact same thing. Eric Cartman grows a race of Sea Creatures that evolves and worships him as their creator, as seen in "Treehouse of Horror VII", in the segment "The Genesis Tub". By the end of the episode, Butters has been driven insane and begins seeing the townspeople and geography of South Park as they would look on the Simpsons. The South Park characters and their Simpsons counterparts Butters' sees in his hallucinations are listed below: Dougie as Bart Simpson. Ms. Crabtree as Otto Mann. Mr. Garrison as Waylon Smithers. Tom Pusslicker as Kent Brockman. Mr. Mackey as Mr. Burns. Eric Cartman laughs like Nelson Muntz. In a deleted scene of the episode, Stephen Stotch (Butters Stotch's father) and Linda Stotch (Butters Stotch's mother) resembles Seymour Skinner and Edna Krabappel respectively. Liane Cartman (Eric Cartman's mother) as Lunchlady Dora. Timmy Burch as Ralph Wiggum. Chef as Apu Nahasapeemapetilon. Mr. Hat as Groundskeeper Willie. The town of South Park, Colorado as Springfield, including the Nuclear Power Plant, the School Bus from the Elementary School and the First Church. The Moe's Tavern, The Android's Dungeon & Baseball Card Shop and Kwik-E-Mart were parodied as "Toe's Tavern", "Citadel and Sports Cards Shop" and "Wink-E-Mart" respectively. 10 143 "Cartoon Wars Part II" Eric Cartman meets the main character of The Simpsons, Bart Simpson (voiced by Mona Marshall), who appears to share his hatred of Family Guy. The pair help each other bring an end to Family Guy, but Bart's opinion changes after Kyle Broflovski gives him one of his "gay little speeches". A chalkboard gag also appears on this episode. Bart writes in the alleyway "I hate Family Guy" repeatedly with a chalk. Unlike the way he's animated on The Simpsons, on South Park, Bart can clearly see his hair line, where it is a slightly yellower color than his skin. 18 253 "Freemium Isn't Free" When the Minister of Mobile Gaming is talking about fake currency, donuts appear on the whiteboard. Donuts are the premium currency in The Simpsons: Tapped Out. 22 290 "The Problem with a Poo" After he is exiled from South Park for a series of crude, offensive social media posts, Mr. Hankey goes off to find a place that accepts offensive people like him. He ends up in Springfield where he is welcomed by Apu. After this, the hashtag #cancelthesimpsons appears (referencing the season's early promotional campaign #cancelsouthpark, meant to skewer cancel culture). This, and the episode's title, is a reference to the documentary The Problem with Apu.
