The film repeatedly parodies Broadway and Disney-style songs while foregrounding explicit language and taboo jokes.
Parents, government officials, and the V-chip become targets in the conflict over the children's exposure to Terrance and Phillip.
A parental panic over a vulgar movie expands into war with Canada and a threat from Satan and Saddam Hussein.
