South Park’s “Make Love, Not Warcraft” wins Emmy

The 59th Create Arts Emmy Awards was held last Saturday and as we've previously reported, South Park's "Make Love, Not Warcraft" was nominated for an Emmy under the Outstanding Animated Program (for Programming Less Than One Hour) category.

The results have now been revealed and right from the red carpet, the foul-mouthed kids just bagged the Emmy for their WoW-machinima episode. (Aww. And I had my bets on that Avatar episode.) Yeah, for those who remember, South Park had some strong competition to go against for the Emmy. Other nominees included:

• Avatar: The Last Airbender - City Of Walls And Secrets
• Robot Chicken - Lust For Puppets
• SpongeBob SquarePants - Bummer Vacation / Wig Struck
• The Simpsons - The Haw-Hawed Couple

Is anyone surprised South Park won though? The now award-winning South Park episode did get some acclaim from fans far and wide - and made an impact on both WoW players and non-WoW players alike. Congrats to the four kids, and likewise to Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Now that the World of Warcraft's Wrath of the Lich King is coming out, let's hope this South Park episode gets a sequel!
