Excellent episode with a mix of comedy, drama and romance

Raisins is one of my favorite episodes of South Park.It is also one of the sadder episodes.Wendy decides she wants to break up with Stan.Stan then becomes really depressed and tries to get Wendy back but he simply cannot.The boys then take him to raisins(a hooters like restaurant).Butters then falls in love with a girl there but she only wants him for his money(he gives her good tips).Stan still cannot get over Wendy and becomes an Emo.There are plenty of funny scenes in this episode but it also shows how you feel after a break up.The mix of comedy, drama and romance makes raisins one of my favorite episodes.

10/10
