There’s been a lot of T.V. made in Costa Rica or about Costa Rica. From the Kardashians to The Bachelor.

But one of the most controversial TV pieces about Costa Rica comes from the creators of South Park in an episode titled “Rainforest Shmainforest” from Season 3 Episode 1.

Here’s a preview of the episode:
