If we happen to see Jeremy's gentleman's sausage, we can worry about it then. Doesn't change the fact that South Park and Family Guy are two extremely popular shows in the US. And one of them is on network television. I mean, Game of Thrones has plenty of full-frontal nudity and lewd acts, and no one cares. Because it's not network television.

My opinion? The people who care about such things aren't likely to be watching shows on Amazon anyway, so they would never even see them. Compare to the BBC where someone could be flipping through a channel and find it accidentally.

South Park was shown on Channel 4 in the UK, where someone certainly could have found it accidentally.

South Park is mostly controversial in the correct (perhaps we could call it left-wing) way, which Clarkson isn't.

Not really. Pseudo-ironic racism is a pretty significant source of humor in South Park.
