South Park's Kenny Replacement Character Only Became Great After Kenny Came Back

Kenny in a hospital bed in South Park

South Park brought in Butters to replace Kenny after his death, but when Kenny eventually came back to the boys’ main group, Butters became an even better character. In the first few seasons of South Park, it became a beloved running gag that Kenny would be killed in every episode, then come back in the next episode without any explanation for his resurrection. But in season 5, episode 13, “Kenny Dies,” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone decided to kill off Kenny for good.

South Park Replaced Kenny With Butters, But Butters Only Became Awesome After Kenny Returned Butters Is Up There With Randy & Cartman As A Fan-Favorite South Park Character Close &#x2715 Remove Ads Replacing Kenny with Butters, and giving Butters more of a well-rounded personality, ended up turning him into a fan-favorite character on par with Randy and Cartman.

Even after Kenny came back, Butters went on to headline some of South Park’s best episodes. Season 7, episode 11, “Casa Bonita,” sees Cartman putting Butters through hell just to go to a Mexican restaurant. Season 8, episode 1, “Good Times with Weapons,” sees Butters taking a ninja star to the eye — and his day only gets worse from there.
