 In the late 1990s, a mother in Canada filed a complaint against this  series with the CRTC (Canadas equivalent of the FCC). She stated  that her young son, named Kenny, was being traumatized by the death  of the character Kenny in each episode, this trauma being made worse  by classmates teasing him about it. She requested the CRTC pressure  Parker and Stone to change Kennys name to something else. Her  request was thrown out.
