10 Celebrity Guests Who Should've Stayed In South Park

Episode(s) appeared in: World Wide Recorder Concert (Season 3, Episode 17)

Yoko Ono, John Lennon’s widow and celebrated artist in her own right, appeared as the special guest conductor for “the musical event of the millennium”. Along with multi-instrumentalist Kenny G, she planned to lead four million third grade students in playing America (My Country, ‘Tis of Thee) on the recorder.

Throughout the episode Yoko largely spoke gibberish and became more aggressive as the combined incompetence of millions of children grew. The event was ruined when The Boys discovered the brown noise (92ȼ below the lowest E-flat) and accidently caused everybody on Earth to “crap their pants”. Some to death.

Yoko Ono is better known today as a conceptual artist. Conceptual art and South Park are almost opposites. The creation and appreciation of conceptual art is the kind of thinking South Park lacerates with its blunt, yet still creative, parodies. Just because the little mountain town lacks culture, doesn’t mean its residents would be thankful for it being gifted to them. How would the town react to her displaying painted ladders and blurred photographs of her assassinated husband as fine art?
