The following is a list of minor characters on South Park. This does not include the school children, family members, townsfolk, the school staff, or one-off characters.
Thomas and Nellie McElroy
Thomas and Nellie McElroy are the parents of Chef. They first appear in the episode "The Succubus", when they come to South Park for Chef's wedding. They appear later in the episode "The Biggest Douche in the Universe" when Chef takes Cartman and his mother to his parents' manor house in Scotland. They perform a shaman-esque ritual to exorcize Kenny's soul from Cartman's body. Their most recent appearance to date is in "Red Sleigh Down", where they are seen in a crowd during the town's Christmas celebration. Interestingly, they are not seen at Chef's funeral in The Return of Chef.
The McElroys' main subject of conversation is their supposed encounters with the Loch Ness Monster. They repeatedly claim that they have seen him on multiple occasions, and are constantly harassed by him, as he tries to swindle them out of "Tree-fiddy" ($3.50). According to Thomas, the monster has pretended to be a girl scout, an alien, and Chef's imaginary friend from childhood.
Darryl Weathers
Darryl Weathers is a worker from the Construction Workers' Union. He has a flock of red hair and a big red moustauche. His first appearence is in Goobacks where he is hosting a rally of many working class men being mad at losing their jobs to the Goobacks who volunteer to work for next to nothing. He tries to help them find a way to get rid of the Goobacks, when it eventually comes to all the men having sex with each other. He approves the idea and mandates that every man does it.
The next appearence is a one liner in Smug Alert where he appears in the background mad at someone(who we know is Kyle's bad) putting a fake ticket on his car.
Farmer Carl Denkins
Farmer Carl Denkins is a farmer, who lives just outside of South Park. He originally appeared in the pilot episode of the series, reporting to Officer Barbrady that his cattle were being mutilated. When the pilot was re cut into the episode "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe", he remained in the episode. One of his chickens was sexually molested by the "Chickenlover". He shoots and kills Scott Tenorman's parents for trespassing on his property in "Scott Tenorman Must Die", and played a prominent role in the episode "Fun with Veal" (although he was referred to as Rancher Bob in this appearance). During the run of the series, his chicken fell prey to Chickenlover; his cows have been mutilated and turned inside-out by aliens, and have later performed a mass suicide; and his pony was taught to bite off Scott Tenorman's weiner (despite many unsuccessful attempts and much effort). Also, his duck was recruited to join Stan's dance troupe in You Got F'd in the A.
Fat Abbot
Fat Abbot is the profane character in the episode in the popular show South Park. Fat Abbot is profane and resembles the famous character "Fat Albert". Fat Abbot is usually calling all his friends "bitches" and uses slang and/or street talk. Fat Abbot makes his first and only apperance on South Park.
Fluffy
Fluffy is Eric Cartman's potbelly pig. She makes only two notable appearances: in the first season episode "An Elephant Makes Love to a Pig," she is a hapless element of the children's school genetics project, and in the fourth season "Cherokee Hair Tampons," she is startled awake by boys who are sneaking into the Cartmans' house and begins squealing, but is subsequently yelled back into silence by a semi-awake Eric Cartman (who never notices the other boys).
God
God is portrayed on South Park as a Bunyip from Australian Aboriginal mythology; he is a hybrid of a cat, monkey, and hippopotamus, with a reptilian tongue he uses to catch bugs. His first appearance was in "Are You There God? It's Me, Jesus". He can be summoned in Heaven when his name is spoken, and sometimes on Earth, where he appears as beams of light with a deep voice. God is a Buddhist, although only people of the Mormon faith are allowed in Heaven. As the population of Heaven began to dwindle, as told in "Best Friends Forever", God started to allow others into Heaven. This was an attempt to build up Heaven's army to protect God's Kingdom from the increasingly larger Army of Satan. It is said that the PlayStation Portable was created by God to help find out which human would be the best leader of his army. Kenny, being the best, was killed by God to get Kenny to lead his army with the Golden PSP. Kenny, after being revived & killed over the course of an episode debate, saves Heaven and is honored with a statue of Keanu Reeves. He frequently curses, and isn't hesitant to use his or Jesus' names in vain. Every 2000 years, he comes to Earth to answer one question. He is included as a figure with the South Park series 3 Jesus action figure by Mezco. His voice is provided by Trey Parker.
Halfy
Halfy (pronounced Half-ee) is an amputee (he has no legs, hence his nickname), who first appeared in the episode "Cartman's Mom is a Dirty Slut". In his early appearances, he would claim that he would have sex with various things/people, only to be told "You don't count Halfy; you don't have any legs", to which he would reply "Oh. Yeah." When he is happy, he jumps into the air and somersaults. Halfy was spotted at the starting line of the South Park "Running of the Cows" in the episode "Cow Days."
Midget wearing bikini
Midget wearing bikini (also known as "Midget in a bikini", et al) is a news reporter for the local South Park television station. He has appeared in "Pink Eye" and South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut. He is literally a midget in a bikini. Other unusual reporters have such names as "Creamy Goodness", "Hispanic Man With Gravy Stains On His Lapel", "Tom Pusslicker", "Mike Swullenballs", and "A 34 year-old Asian Man Who Looks Strikingly Similar To Ricardo Montalbán".
Moses
Moses is a being for which the Jewish people make macaroni pictures, popcorn necklaces, and soap carvings at the Jewish scout camp in the episode "Jewbilee". He is called out of the fire by an elder and given these tokens. The antagonist Garth puts him in a conch shell before calling upon Haman. Kenny McCormick, who had been banished by Moses for not being Jewish, saves the camp by breaking the conch shell open with his head. Moses also appears in the episode "Super Best Friends". Moses is based on the Master Control Program from the movie Tron.
Mr. Derp
Mr. Derp appears in the episode "The Succubus" after Chef quits his job. He seems to be a very idiotic person who is described by Matt Stone and Trey Parker as being like a character in a Rob Schneider movie in the DVD commentary. He seems to only serve "yellow stuff" and "white stuff" (although Cartman does order "yellow with a side of white"). His name is derived from the word 'derp' that Stone and Parker used as describing a joke which is easy to predict, from the movie BASEketball. Mr. Derp makes a brief appearance behind the lemonade stand in the episode "Timmy 2000", and can also be seen running out of South Park Elementary and away from global warming in the episode "Two Days Before The Day After Tomorrow". He is also in the episode "Professor Chaos".
Mr. Kitty
Kitty, or Mr. Kitty voiced by comedian Jay Leno in "Cartman's Mom Is a Dirty Slut" and by Trey Parker in all other appearances, is a cat owned by Eric Cartman and his mother Liane Cartman. Her first appearance was in "Cartman gets an Anal Probe" where she wanted a bite of Cartman's chocolate chicken pot pie. Cartman often refers to the cat as Mr. Kitty despite the fact that the cat is female. Kitty has gray hair and is a shorthair. Kitty usually tries to get Cartman's food, and Cartman abuses and yells at her. ("No, Mr. Kitty, this is my pot pie. No, Kitty, that's a bad kitty!") In the episode "Spookyfish", an evil Cartman from a parallel universe arrived and was friendly to Kitty. This caused the regular Cartman soon to become cross with them and scare Kitty off. Kitty's most prominent role was in the season three episode "Cat Orgy".
Since "Cat Orgy", Mr. Kitty has been seen infrequently, though she was mentioned in "The Death of Eric Cartman" as being part of the list of people Cartman needed to apologize to in order to reach Heaven when he believed he was dead.
As of season eleven Kitty is alive and well, since in "Cartman Sucks" Cartman used cat feces to make a mustache for Butters.
Mr. Wyland
Mr. Wyland replaced Mr. Garrison in two episodes as the 3rd grade teacher after Mr. Garrison was caught attempting to molest a child in "Cartman Joins NAMBLA". Wyland wears a blue top with a red bow tie. He was first shown in "Cherokee Hair Tampons" and made the class make a get well card for Kyle.
Santa
Santa (voiced by Trey Parker) is, quite simply, South Park's version of Santa Claus. He lives at the North Pole in his Fortress of Solitude, aided two months out of the year by the Underpants Gnomes.
Santa is often shown with South Park's other Christmas-related characters, Mr. Hankey and Jesus. His relationship with the latter has been rocky. In the animated short that started South Park, called "The Spirit of Christmas", Jesus and Santa had a fight to determine what the true meaning of Christmas was---giving or Jesus' birth. With some advice from Brian Boitano, the boys told Jesus that Santa keeps the spirit of Christmas alive, and then told Santa that if it wasn't for Jesus there would be no Christmas at all. The two reconciled, though they would later fight again in "Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics," when Santa felt gypped that there are more Jesus-related Christmas songs than ones about him. Nevertheless they made up again, and Jesus later lost his life to save Santa from Iraqis in "Red Sleigh Down."
Santa is known for not being afraid to get violent to protect the true meaning of Christmas. In "Red Sleigh Down" he was captured by Iraqis and had to shoot his way free, and in "Woodland Critter Christmas" his skill with a shotgun and sledgehammer saved Christmas from the Antichrist.
Another character trait of Santa is his tendency to speak in the third person; e.g., in "Woodland Critter Christmas" he says "Santa's gonna have to kill you!"
Scott the dick
Scott's first appearance was in "Terrance & Phillip in Not Without My Anus". He has also appeared in the "real world" of South Park in "It's Christmas in Canada." Scott lives in Canada and is known by most Canadians as being a dick. He is uptight and short-tempered, especially with Terrance and Phillip's toilet humour.
He has been made Saddam Hussein's adviser twice, first in "Terrance and Phillip in Not Without My Anus" and then to the new Prime Minister of Canada (who turned out to be Saddam Hussein in disguise) in "It's Christmas in Canada."
Skeeter
- Skeeter is a red-haired townsperson. He has a southern accent, and typically is portrayed as a redneck. He hangs out at the bar a great deal, where he greets newcomers by saying, "Hey! We don't take kindly to" whatever they are "around here." This is generally followed by the bartender replying, "Now, Skeeter, he/she/they ain't hurtin' nobody."
He is shown leading various mobs in different episodes, or otherwise appears as a background character or regular townee. His most notable appearances include leading the campaign to "Free Hat McCullough" in "Free Hat", and as a war supporter who sings in "I'm a Little Bit Country".
In "Good Times With Weapons", he is revealed to be the father of Bertha. He might also be the brother of Craig's father, Thomas.
Sparky the Dog
Sparky is Stan's dog. He first appeared in "Big Gay Al's Big Gay Boat Ride" in which it was revealed that he was gay. Stan was upset that Sparky was gay, so Sparky ran away. In this episode, George Clooney was his voice (despite only saying "woof" in various ways). He has been seen in "Proper Condom Use", in which Stan red rocketed him and "Good Times With Weapons" when his fur was used to disguise Butters. Sparky also makes an appearance in "Woodland Critter Christmas" and is included as a figure with the South Park series 2 Stan action figure by Mezco.
Skyler
Skyler is a member of the band "Lords of the Underworld" (briefly Timmy and the Lords of the Underworld) and has been seen on two occasions.
In his first appearance, "Cat Orgy," Skyler is seen as Shelley Marsh's boyfriend who she invites round while babysitting Eric Cartman. He invited his band along. Skyler only wanted Shelley for sex, and because of a huge age difference Shelley was reluctant (Shelley is 12 and he is in his 20s). After she refused to have sex he dumped her. Cartman helped her get revenge by trashing his guitar. When he angrily returned to Cartman's house while Shelley was still there, Cartman threw catnip at him, attracting Cartman's cat Mr. Kitty and other neighborhood felines. The cats pounced at Skyler.
Skyler was not seen again until "Timmy 2000," in which his band needed "something" to help them win battle of the bands. They then found Timmy, who turned out to be a great singer despite only being able to shout his name. Jealous of Timmy's popularity (thanks to a discussion started by Phil Collins), Skyler left the band to pursue a solo career titled "Reach for the Skyler". He later rejoined though, and they performed at the South Park Battle of the Bands.
Starvin' Marvin
Starvin' Marvin (voiced by Trey Parker) is a very thin Ethiopian boy who first appeared in Season One's Thanksgiving special, "Starvin' Marvin". He cannot speak English--though he later learns to say the phrases "sweet" and "yeah I want the Cheesy Poofs!", as well as his name—but the boys find his clicking ability interesting. (Incidentally, Marvin and his village speak a clicking language with features typical of Khoisan languages, which are in southern Africa and nowhere near Ethiopia.) Starvin' Marvin was once in the custody of the four boys, but Mr. Garrison reported them for it and had him sent back to Ethiopia, along with many dead rabid turkeys. He later appeared in "Starvin' Marvin in Space", in which he relocated his fellow Ethiopians to the planet Marklar.
Tom, the News Anchor
Tom the News Anchor (voiced by Trey Parker) has appeared in various episodes of South Park reporting on current events. Other news anchors are also referred to as Tom by the reporters. He often introduces field news anchors by describing their race, gender, age, what they are wearing, their size, and, sometimes, whether they look like someone famous (in a non-specific combination). This is used rather than their name, and the description also seen beneath the anchor's head on the screen. Examples include: a midget in a bikini, a Hispanic man with some gravy stains on his lapel, a quadriplegic Swiss man tied to a pony, and a normal looking guy with a funny name (Creamy Goodness). In the episode Two Days Before the Day After Tomorrow it is revealed that his last name is Pusslicker, but in Season 11 his name changes to Swollenballs.
In the German version he was voiced by comedian Wigald Boning in earlier seasons.
