I like Isohunt. South Park S10E08. You can find most any show on there using the S--E-- format (tv.com can give you season number and which number in the season it is).

Except this should have been S10E01....

Season premier and all that.

Fal is right, this is still season 10, season 10 started last spring. They always do this, they start the season in the spring and then finish it up come fall/winter. Its a tad confusing, but if you have a brain you can figure it out.

What am I supposed to in here again? Oh yes something witty and oh so pretty!

Then why bother listing this episode as the "Season Premier" when it's clearly not?

Because your listening to the ads, they lie and should be shot.

Same reason SciFi splits their seasons of Battlestar Galactica, Stargate Atlantis, and Stargate SG-1.

Show's Season does not equal Broadcaster's Season.


The broadcaster takes the season, we'll say 26 episodes and splits it in half. Therefore they now have two Season Premeires and two Season Finales to showcase. This lets them get more viewers by making them wait 3 months to see the second half of the show. Plus instead of waiting 6 months for new episodes, you watch for 3, wait for 3, watch for 3, wait for 3, etc.

As a show ages, it gets used to this type of venue and starts making episode 13 something climatic and episode 14 something fitting for an opener.

Voila. Explained.

That's an acceptable answer.
