Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Christopher Smith Since its debut in 1997, "South Park" has somehow managed to remain the sharpest and most consistently hilarious show on television. This is quite impressive given not only how long the show has been on the air at this point, but also justhow quickly each episode gets produced. It had often been said that episodes of "South Park" are made in a week or less. I'd heard this a long time ago and thought it was simply a rumor, as it seemed completely insane to think that anyone could put together such great television in such a limited time span. 6 Days to Air: The Making of South Park shows how "South Park" creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone manage to do just that. The focus here is The Human Centipad episode, perhaps the most disgusting episode the duo has ever come up with. The writing process, animation process, voice-recording process, and editing process are all covered here. Due to the short running time of the documentary, the coverage of each of these processes is not extensive, but long enough for the viewer to get a good sense of what it takes to create a typical "South Park" episode.The best part of 6 Days to Air is that, unlike most behind-the-scenes documentaries that try to sell that every production is a blast to work on, here there is emphasis on the enormous pressure and anxiety everyone is under to get the episode done on time. Parker and Stone make no attempt to hide the anxiousness, making this feel like a real honest look at the creative process, not just a "South Park" fluff piece. Parker, in particular, is seen to be quite on edge when it seems the episode may not be done by the scheduled airdate. Although Stone gets his fair share of camera time, Parker seems to be the main figure in the documentary as head writer and director of the episode being produced. Parker is a fascinating figure to watch, alternating between hilarious, stressed out, and just happy to get the work done. This isn't one of those documentaries where the audience is left with the impression that the filmmaker is delusional, pretentious, or a jerk. Parker just seems like a normal, everyday guy with a very tough but rewarding job in the television industry. If anything, 6 Days to Air makes one admire Stone and Parker even more for the hard work put into their television show.6 Days to Air isn't perfect as its aforementioned short running time is a bit of a bummer, but it's certainly one of the more entertaining and informative documentaries about television. I've seen it several times now, and still find it to be just as intriguing as I did the first time that I watched it. It would be great to see another longer documentary about "South Park" in the future, although for now 6 Days to Air remains the definitive documentary on the legendary series. Definitely recommended. 9/10

RainDogJr Why I saw this just now is something I can't explain to myself. I was actually watching some youtube and ended finding little bits of it, dealing with the way Trey Parker does the voice of Cartman – this got my attention as I don't think I've seen him doing that before (aside of that funny bit from BASEketball in which he turns into Cartman). Later, I found the clip of Trey doing some voice work together with Bill Hader. I did know Hader (yes *the* Bill Hader from SUPERBAD) was working for SOUTH PARK but watching the actual thing with him and Trey just laughing hard made me think something like "wait a minute, why I haven't seen this documentary? I even own the damn thing on Blu-Ray!"What "6 Days to Air" offers is a look at how the first Season 15 episode ("HUMANCENTiPAD") got made. Also, we have stuff dealing with the story of the show. Is worth pointing out that hard-core fans of the show will find some great and unique material even from the bits with well-known stuff like the story behind "The Spirit of Christmas" or the going-to-the- Academy-Awards-with-dresses-and-on-acid anecdote. The rest of it, well, it's clearly priceless material – is seeing with your own eyes everything you have heard or read before; I mean, is seeing how Trey Parker and Matt Stone come up with pretty much everything (6 days before the airing, certainly) and their ability to basically hear an idea and immediately start to think with Cartman or Kyle's mind to create the dialog. Bill Hader has the dream job of being a writer who does basically nothing aside of laughing hysterically thanks to the whole making of a SOUTH PARK show. And you'll laugh hard too! *Watched it on 09 September, 2012

gavin6942 This documentary is pretty much exactly what it says: a look inside the studio and how a small group of dedicated people are able to bring a cartoon to your home each week with only days to go from scratch to screen.My biggest disappointment is the length of this thing. Clearly it was designed to fit within an hour of television, but I would think they could have put more for those who did not watch the original run (I saw it on Netflix, for example). There was not much discussion of the movies these guys made, and how films like "Cannibal the Musical" fit into the story of Parker and Stone.That aside, I think it was a good peak at how these guys work, and it is interesting to see Bill Hader in on the fun, too. I knew some episodes were made last minute, but I was not aware that the show consistently worked that way. It is an amazing feat.

Michael_Elliott 6 Days to Air: The Making of South Park (2011) *** 1/2 (out of 4) Fun documentary with the title referring to how long it takes the South Park group to come up with their ideas, write the dialogue, do the animation and get the finish product on the air. I think it goes without saying but this is mainly going to appeal to South Park fans, although I'm someone who hasn't watched the shows in ages yet it still kept me entertained and reminded me what a funny show it actually is. I really enjoyed seeing all of the behind the scenes stuff that's gone over as it really lets you in to see how tough the job actually is. Some of the best stuff happens in the writer's room where they discuss how for every one great idea they have a hundred bad ones. We see how they come up with the ideas, work them out and how they ultimately decide on whether or not to use them. From here we see the vocal work that has to be done and then of course there's the animation. The episode the guys are working on here is the one where Cartman keeps saying his mother is "screwing" him. Trey Parker and Matt Stone are both interviewed throughout the process and we also get a brief history of how the show started and their trip to the Oscars.
