"Butters' Very Own Episode", which revolves entirely around Butters and his parents. The intention was to give the character a proper introduction to the "South Park" audience and prepare them for the larger role he would come to play in further seasons. Butters eventually took part in more and more scenes in which he is paired with Cartman, and Parker declares that the scenes involving the two together are his favorite of the series. Butters had very little dialogue in the 1999 film "South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut", receiving only one line total, though he does utter some grunts and other sounds during some scenes. In a 2009 audio commentary for the Blu-ray edition of the film, Parker and Stone expressed shock at how little the character was used, and agreed that any "South Park" movie made today would demand he play a role in the plot.
