Tom Cruise is the first subjected to the process, gaining a "CENSORED" box identical to Muhammad's, but further transfers are interrupted when the Super Best Friends arrive to free their comrade Muhammad. The Gingers contact the celebrities and offer to share Muhammad in exchange for access to the celebrities' "goo transfer machine", which transfers Muhammad's power to remain free from ridicule to a target individual. The Super Best Friends are called to South Park to help after their powers fail to subdue Mecha-Streisand, they pacify her by having Krishna adopt the form of Neil Diamond and providing her the opportunity to perform a duet with him. The Gingers arrive and take Muhammad and Cartman captive. Muhammad, who is visually obscured throughout the entire episode by a black box superimposed with the word "CENSORED", is taken by Stan, Kyle, and Kenny to Dr. Meanwhile, the Ginger Separatist Movement and the townsfolk are negotiating the handover of Muhammad when Mecha-Streisand begins to attack South Park.
Garrison refuses to reveal the identity of Cartman's father, and instead sends Cartman to Dr. The episode opens and continues from 200 with Cartman, as his hand-puppet persona Mitch Conner, narrating a flashback to Connor's 1972 medical discharge from his Vietnam War tour of duty in a parody of a scene from the film Apocalypse Now as the song " Time of the Season" by the Zombies plays in the background. On January 31, 2014, the original, uncensored version of "201" was leaked when it was pulled from the South Park Studios servers and was posted online in its entirety without approval by Comedy Central. According to Nielsen Media Research, the episode was seen by 3.5 million viewers, making it the most watched cable television program of the night. In most places the episode " Sexual Healing" was shown instead of episode 201.
"201" was not shown in repeats, has not been made available on the South Park website, and has not been shown in Sweden, Hungary, Australia or the Netherlands. Critics said that the network's action would encourage further threats from radical groups. The censorship drew strong criticism of Comedy Central. Nevertheless, both "200" and "201" were nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program in 2010. Comedy Central modified Parker and Stone's version of the episode, obscuring all images and bleeping all references to Muhammad-to the effect of disruptively obscuring the entire two-minute moral conclusion of the story. Prior to the broadcast of "201", the radical Muslim organization Revolution Muslim posted a warning on their website that Parker and Stone risked being murdered for their depiction of Muhammad. Like "200", it alludes to several past storylines and controversies from previous South Park episodes, especially Comedy Central's refusal to show images of Muhammad on the network following controversies in 20 when cartoons depicting Muhammad ran in European newspapers, resulting in riots and threats.

The episode was written and directed by series co-creator Trey Parker. In "201", a superhero-like group of religious figures ( The Super Best Friends) team up to save South Park from the celebrities and their monster Mecha-Streisand, while Eric Cartman learns the true identity of his father. The episode continued multiple storylines from the previous episode, " 200", in which a group of angry celebrities demand South Park produce the prophet Muhammad.
It originally aired on Comedy Central in the United States on April 21, 2010. " 201" is the sixth episode of the fourteenth season of South Park, and the 201st overall episode of the series. Comedy Central was responsible for censoring the audio, drawing massive criticism from audiences, who felt the network did so in response to Islamic terrorist threats. In the original broadcast and DVD release, the speech is entirely censored with a continuous audio bleep, and Muhammad is replaced by a "CENSORED" bar. Kyle gives a speech about the effectiveness of threats and violence.
