  • April 5:
  • April 14: The South Park episode "200" is broadcast, which portrays Muhammad, though as a censored image. The episode leads to serious controversy, riots and death threats. A week later, on April 21, the next episode "201" continues the Muhammad storyline but is notably censored, with several lines of dialogue muted. After their broadcast, both episodes are pulled from syndication, removed from the series' website, and unaired outside the United States.[4]
  • April 25: South Park is banned in Sri Lanka due to controversy over the episode "200", which depicted Gautama Buddha snorting cocaine.[5]
