However, Kenny is brought back to life in Hell's Pass Hospital, but in a "persistent vegetative state", and kept alive by a feeding tube, leaving heaven in danger. Meanwhile, Kenny's lawyer reads a will he has left, which says that Kenny has left his entire possessions to his friends and the PSP to Cartman out of sympathy, but the last page of the will is missing just when he gets to the part of Kenny's being in a vegetative state. At that time the boys are informed that Kenny's alive; however, this becomes a burden to Cartman, who wants him dead so that he can get the PSP, so he goes to the Supreme Court and testifies that he was Kenny's BFF (Best Friend Forever), and Cartman has ...

Awesome episode!
28 September 2008 | by (Canada(Montreal,Quebec)) – See all my reviews

Best Friends Forever is the emmy winning episode of South Park.It is a great episode which spoofs the conflicts between whether the person should live or die when in a vegetative state.This episode has Kenny buying a PSP and playing a heaven and hell game.He is really good at it and eventually gets killed playing it(by a driver who is playing his own PSP).Kenny goes to heaven and god tells him that he created the game to aid heaven in a battle against hell.Meanwhile on earth, Kenny is in a vegetative state and everyone is wondering whether kenny wants to live or die.They look for that second part of his will which states what he wants, while people are arguing whether he should live or die.Best Friends Forever is a very funny and interesting South Park episode.
