--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NEW YORK, March 12, 2007 -- Butters' dad does what any good father would do if he believed his son was bi-curious in an all-new "South Park" entitled, "Cartman Sucks," premiering on Wednesday, March 14 at 10:00 p.m. on COMEDY CENTRAL.

When another one of Cartman's pratical jokes puts Butter's in a compromising position, his dad is determined to "straighten him out." While Butters is at a special camp trying to "pray the gay away," Cartman realizes the joke is on him.
