Timmyyyyy!!! All "South Park" episodes online, for free

Getting your "South Park" fix online has always been a piece of cake, but now you can watch legally—and all 12 seasons are available.

Of course, South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone never had much of a problem with fans trading episodes online, but "we got really sick of having to download our own show illegally all the time," the pair said in a statement.

So feast your eyes on the new SouthParkStudios.com, now crammed with 168 episodes of the show. The streaming South Park player is pretty nice, actually—a full-screen mode is available, and thumbnails along the bottom of the player let you jump to any episode in a given season.

A couple of caveats: New episodes will appear "as soon as possible" after they premiere on Comedy Central, but they'll come down a week later. That said, they'll return online 30 days after the original premiere date.

And while there aren't any ads in the episodes now, they'll arrive eventually; looks like two to three commercial breaks per show.

Now that there's an officially sanctioned site for watching South Park on the Web, it'll be interesting to see whether Viacom (the parent company of Comedy Central) cracks down on sites like SouthParkZone.com, which link to...well, "non-sanctioned" streams of the show.

When asked in this interview how he felt about illegal downloads of South Park, Matt Stone said: "We're always in favor of peoplee downloading. Always."

Will Viacom follow that spirit? We'll have to wait and see.
