When they showed the new Billy & Mandy episode "Scary Poppins,"in my opinion it sorta copied the new South Park nanny episode which on both of those episodes would deal with the nannies trying to control two evil rotten little jerks like Cartman & Mandy which they can easily chase the nannies away, but it sucked that they didn't pull a Dog Whisperer on Mandy the same way with Cartman which could work,she definately needs discipline.

So what do you guys think:confused: ?

Coincidence. It deffinately takres longer to make Bill and Mandy than South Park. One takes very little time, sometimes just days, the other takes more time.

Also, that plotline has been used many, many times over many years. Heck, there's been several "reform Mandy" eps in B&M alone...

There haven't been as many "reality show hostess comes in to refrom" plots though. I mean the only three that have done it are Drawn Together, South Park and now Billy and Mandy. Since B&M takes at least 6 Months to do there's no way they would of heard about the SP team doing that ep, and would have done it at a time when no one else would of. (I mean if anything, SP copied off DT with the nanny coming over plot).

But I defintley agree wtih Radical. If there was anyone who needed the Dog Whisperer treatment more then Cartman, it's Mandy. Not just because of the fact she's a brat, but she actually gets away with pretty much anything she wants to do. Most of the time Cartman at least learns some kind of lesson, but not Mandy, who is only slighter more on the "good" side then Cartman.

I thought it was interesting when, in the episode "Keeper of the Reaper", Billy asked Mandy's parents what they thought of her, and when they said they were scared of her, Mandy seemed surprised. Maybe she's somewhat unaware of how she comes off sometimes. Anyway, my favorite character in that show is definitely Irwin. I like the voice, and the poor little putz has soul. :D
