==About==
==About==
Once described as a "little freckled kid that looks like a football", Sir Ike Broflovski is [[Kyle Broflovski|Kyle]]'s beloved little brother and the apple of his parents' eye. Ike has had no shortage of adventure and mischief in his life, and while he may be far more intelligent than he appears, he can always count on his big brother Kyle being there to protect him... even when Ike might not want him to be. While the two of them may play the increasingly sparse game of 'Kick the Baby', it's clear that Ike and Kyle will always have each other's back.
A longtime friend of the boys who has rarely ever spoken, most will easily recognize Jason for the fourth grader's inexplicably receding hairline and balding haircut. Often lending a hand when the boys and their extended friendship circles are screwing around, whether it's participating in sports or getting lost in a fantasy role-playing game, Jason has always been a playful and supportive friend, especially to [[Craig and Those Guys]]. Known for his love of sports, he plays basketball and football for the school's the South Park Cows. Though friendly and outgoing, he is noticeably quiet, especially in the presence of his father, [[Bob White]], who has frequently protested his family's treatment in the town.


Although he doesn't always show it, Ike is a certified genius - despite being three years old, he now attends [[South Park Elementary]] alongside the Kindergarten class, many of them two years his senior. With a little help from classmate [[Sally Bands]], he was narrowly elected Class President over the expected victor, [[Filmore Anderson]], who has remained Ike's chief rival and bully in class to this day. Ike also had a passionate, romantic sexual affair with their teacher, [[Ms. Stephenson]], that resulted in her arrest and subsequent death.
===DNA Overview===
You're friendly but mysterious. No one knows much about your personal life, and you're just fine with that. At the same time, people with Jason White DNA also secretly wish they'd be given the spotlight every so often. Even just once. Please.


Though the Broflovski family all love him as their own, Ike was actually born in Canada as '''Peter Gintz''', to [[Harry Gintz|Harry]] and [[Elsie Gintz|Elsie Gintz]]. In the wake of the disastrous Cola Wars, he was placed up for adoption, and the Broflovski family welcomed him into their home, floppy head and all. Kyle discovered this truth [[Ike's Wee-Wee|as a third grader]]. Due to being raised away from his people, Ike isn't fully in touch with their traditions, such as singing Chuck Mangione every day, but he tries to stand with his people, whether it's to protest or rescue the [[Princess of Canada]].
"This playground is for metrosexuals, macho man!"


It's also worth noting Ike, like his brother and to a lesser extent his father, has always embraced technology. Ike has his own computer, which he uses to stream anime on CrunchyRoll (see "TrollTrace History", below) as well as to play video games like ''MineCraft'', and watch [[Pewdepie]]'s video game streaming series. He's even as a capable hacker like his brother, assisting [[Barack Obama]] and [[John McCain]] to assist in their diamond heist by listing them as deceased in a coroner's computer. He and his brother also worked together to troll the entire world online and hack TrollTrace, triggering a 'reset' for the entire internet.
===Death===
While [[Randy Marsh]] was being held in County Jail on charges of terrorism for setting off bombs in the backyards of several marijuana home growers in town, the other boys, including Jason, [[Eric Cartman|Cartman]], [[Kyle Broflovski|Kyle]], [[Kenny McCormick|Kenny]], [[Butters Stotch|Butters]], [[Craig Tucker|Craig]], [[Clyde Donovan|Clyde]], [[Tolkien Black|Tolkien]], [[Tweek Tweak|Tweek]], [[Dogpoo Petuski|Dogpoo]], [[Kevin Stoley|Kevin]] and [[Curly]] were playing a football game at the [[Neighborhood Park]], with Cartman having the ball. After Jason repeatedly insisted he was 'open' to recieve it despite Cartman asserting he couldn't catch, he chased the football into the street and was hit and ran over by a [[Park County Police|police vehicle]].


For a period, Ike was terrified by supernatural visions of dead celebrities, such as [[Billy Mays]] and [[David Carradine]], but after [[Michael Jackson|"Ike"]] won the Grand Little Miss pageant, they all finally moved on. Ike's not really been too impressed with other celebrities, but he and his classmates love [[Pewdepie]], and Ike's favorite TV shows include ''Yo Gabba Gabba!'', ''Dora the Explorer'' and the ''McNeil-[[Jim Lehrer|Lehrer]] Report''. (It's best not to interfere when he's watching the last one, or else there might be... consequences.)
His funeral was held the next day, where he was euologized by [[Father Maxi]] and his father, [[Bob White]], and was also attended by [[Mrs. White]], [[Crystal White]], and [[Roger Donovan]]. They would find the time to move on though, soon adopting a young child named [[Alejandro]].
 
==Personality and Traits==
===Playfulness===
Jason was known for his playful nature among the townspeople, and well-liked among his classmates. He was a member of both the South Park Cows' [[South Park Cows Basketball Players|basketball team]] as well as the [[South Park Cows Sarcastaball Players|football team]], and had a reputation for enjoying playing sports in his free time as well, often meeting classmates at the park to play football. He also played in many of their role-playing games, dedicating himself to the role of the eleven shopkeep as well as playing along under even Cartman's authority in the Texans vs. Mexicans game. At his funeral, [[Father Maxi]] observed it was his playful nature with sports that lead to his untimely death.
 
==Notable Skills==
===Athleticism===
As mentioned above, he was a member of both the South Park Cows' [[South Park Cows Basketball Players|basketball team]] as well as the [[South Park Cows Sarcastaball Players|football team]] and often seen playing football with other students, suggesting that Jason was highly athletic, as only [[Kevin Stoley|two]] [[Tolkien Black|other]] students played for both teams. He also expressed [[Marjorine|once]] that a football game would be less fun to watch if knowing the outcome in advance. He was singled out by Father Maxi for his interest in sports as well. [[Eric Cartman|Cartman]] observed that in his opinion Jason "couldn't catch", but seemed to be avoiding blame for Jason's death.


==Memorable Quotes==

===Catchphrases===
==Design and Outfits==
Ike has a number of short catchphrases that are used sparingly.
Jason was a mostly average fourth grader, with long dark brown hair, sideburns over his small but noticeable ears, and a receding hairline that exposed most of his forehead. He wore a bright purple jacket with a darker collar, and fairly typical blue pants. According to [[Wendy Testaburger]], he had noticeable freckles.


*"Don't kick the baby." (debuted in "[[Cartman Gets an Anal Probe]]")
===Costumes===
*"Cookie monster!" (debuted in "[[Do the Handicapped Go to Hell?]]")
While participating in the kids' role-playing games, Jason played a Border Patrol agent under Sheriff [[Eric Cartman]], as well as one of [[Kyle Broflovski|the High Elf King]]'s most loyal elven warriors and the proprietor of their main shop, where he frequently boasted of the elves' fine works.
*"I pooped my pants." (debuted in "[[Trapper Keeper]]")
 
*"Suck my balls." (debuted in "[[Cancelled]])

===Life Lessons===
==Family==
*"You don't know what's like to be a baby going through puberty! I don't know whether to watch Yo Gabba Gabba or go out and tame some strange!"
Little is known about Jason's relationship with his family as it was never explored while he was alive in either of the family's appearances. When [[Bob White]] speaks for the family in favor of [[Herbert Garrison|the President]]'s policies, his children both follow him around but do not address anything he says, appearing quiet and withdrawn. Jason's strict parents seemed to see him as a well-behaved child, as his crying mother remarked that he never used his phone after their cut-off time, nor tried to call long-distance. His relationship with his sister was never so much as hinted at.


==Alter Egos==
Bob's euology for his son focused upon the challenges he felt the family faced, as well as the lack of attention and marijuana access the family faced in the wake of his death, while his mother cried extensively. They both appeared genuinely unsettled at first by his passing, but his father seemed largely over it after adopting again. After Jason's passing, Bob was seen hitting his new adoptive son, [[Alejandro White]], suggesting Jason may have been the victim of similar abuse, explaining his quiet and withdrawn nature.
Ike's most treasured alter-ego seems to be that of the '''Maplebeard, the Pirate King''', which originated as part of his work with Cartman's pirate crew, but has since taken a life of its own as one of the [[Fighters of Zaron]]. He's had a number of other costumes since, including one from his stint at Clown School.

==Love Interest==
When the girls decided to break up with the boys en masse after weeks of trolling by [[Gerald Broflovski|an anonymous individual on the school message board]], blonde classmate [[Emily Anderson|Emily]] was seen breaking up with a boy who strongly resembled Jason, although he appeared to be wearing a hairpiece.

}}
 
==Close Friends==
Jason's closest friend was likely [[Tweek Tweak]], whom he was seen with on multiple occasions, most notably when they were invited together to a party at [[Bebe Stevens]]' home. They often appeared alongside [[Craig and Those Guys]] together, although Jason appeared less often without him. Tweek was noticeably more upset with Jason's death than their other classmates. He also may have been friendly with Tolkien outside the group, as they were both on the same Cows basketball team together.
 
He seemed to have an odd friendship with [[Eric Cartman]], who referred to them as "pretty" close after Jason's death, with Jason among the boys who helped him during the Jersey invasion effort to trap [[Kyle Broflovski|Kyle]] at the nearby [[Sizzler]], alongside [[Dogpoo Petuski]], both of which were later invited to the sleepover party Cartman's House, where he and Dogpoo played Border Patrol agents for Cartman in Texas vs. Mexicans. Both were also present when he died.
 
Though he very occasionally sat with Craig's friends and the main boys, he was usually seen sitting elsewhere with [[Scott Malkinson]], [[Daniel Tanner]], [[Louis]] and some unknown boys. In addition to the previously mentioned characters, he was also sometimes seen in the background with [[Kevin Stoley]], such as in the episode "[[Marjorine]]" and his final appearance.

==Family==
===Classmates===
Ike has a loving relationship with his family, who have always considered him one of their own. When he was briefly returned to his biological parents in Canada, they were devastated at the loss, leading Kyle and the boys to visit Canada to get him back. Though his mother terrifies him to no end, and he doesn't fully approve of his father's trolling, they all love each other no matter what happens.
The below children were friendly with Jason as a classmate but were not known to have interacted with him personally outside larger social gatherings.
 
His relationship with his extended family hasn't really been explored.

===Biological Parents===
Ike has only ever met his biological parents on one occasion, when they came to take him home to [[Canada]] on orders of the Prime Minister. (He wanted to stay with the Broflovski family, but Harry had chocolate.) Kyle journeyed bravely to be reunited with his brother, and when they saw how far he'd come, the Gintzes allowed Ike to go back to his family in South Park.

==Ex-Fiancee==
Ike had a crush on his second kindergarten teacher, [[Ms. Stephenson]], for a long time, and when they had a discussion about his feelings, she realized she shared them as well. Kyle brought their affair to light out of fear of Ike rushing into a serious relationship too young, and she committed suicide, assuming that Ike would follow her.
He's been single ever since.

}}
==Associate==
After Kyle took him to see ''Yo Gabba Gabba!'' Live while Ike was undergoing puberty, Ike chose to 'tame Foofa's Strange' for his 'cool cool trick'. Though the other Yo Gabba Gabba members instructed Ike that this was sexual assault, Foofa was more interested in the possibility of working in adult entertainment, Foofa enlisted Ike as her manager, and she began a successful career with his assistance. He eventually resigned his position.
<char name="Foofa" image="http://southparkstudios.mtvnimages.com/shared/characters/celebrities/foofa.png"/>
==Close Friends==
Ike seems to be friendly with a number of his kindergarten classmates, who elected him Class President in a narrow majority, with help from [[Sally Bands]], who managed his campaign. Many of his classmates hang out at his house to watch Pewdepie videos with him as well, including [[Quaid]], who is also best friends with Ike's rival, Filmore.
He also came to forge a friendship with [[Ugly Bob]] when they worked together to save the [[Princess of Canada]] from [[Tooth Decay]], though he still seemed to find that [[Scott the Dick|Scott was a dick]], even when they banded together. He's also been employed by [[John McCain]] to help him and his team fake their deaths.
He's recently been noticed sending e-mails to [[Firkle Smith]], as well as [[Daniel Smith]] and [[David Harrison]] but the extent of these friendships is unknown.

==Rivals==
Ike has a fierce rivalry with [[Filmore Anderson]], who challenged him to be the Class President when he was new, and has always been the first to lead to bullying Ike, including when his crush on his teacher was exposed. The rivalry has always been stronger from Filmore's side than Ike's, however, and they do spend time together as friends sometimes.
He also helped defeat the evil [[Tooth Decay]], who had taken many from all races, including the Canadians.

<char name="Tooth Decay" image="http://southparkstudios.mtvnimages.com/shared/characters/non-human/tooth-decay.png"/>
==Role Models==
While Ike isn't known to have any true role models, there are a few famous figures he seems to be fond of. He's a regular viewer of the McNeil-Lehrer Report (now ''PBS NewsHour'') starring [[Jim Lehrer]] and nobody dares interrupt his viewing. He's also a huge fan of [[Pewdepie]]'s videos and

<char name="Pewdepie" image="http://southparkstudios.mtvnimages.com/shared/characters/celebrities/pewdiepie.png"/>


==Affiliations==
==Affiliations==
Ike has less often been a member of a larger organization as other characters, but he was convinced to enlist as a member of [[Eric Cartman]]'s Pirate Crew by the promise of travel and riches on the high seas, and proved to be one of Cartman's favorite team members. It may be worth noting despite proclaiming Jews can't be Pirates, Cartman allowed Ike on to the team.
As mentioned above, Jason was for some time an active member of [[Craig and Those Guys]], most notably during the metrosexual fad when he was one of their more vocal members, and still hung around with them until roughly the thirteenth season. He was also part of the fantasy role-playing group for [[The Fellowship of the Lord of the Rings]].


[[Stan Marsh]] recruited Ike for his Pee-Wee Hockey Team as a potential star player, and he proved well fit for the role, until they ended up going against the [[Detroit Red Wings]], who beat the shit out of him.
He was also a key member of the [[Cows Basketball Players]] team, reflecting his love of sports, and a secondary member of the [[Cows Sarcastaball Players|football and sarcastaball]] team as well.

==Permanent Residence==
==Former Residence==
Ike has always lived with his family at the [[Broflovski Residence]], aside a brief stay in Canada, and is lucky enough to have his own bedroom upstairs with a crib, and a computer.
Though the Whites have been here since the beginning, their residence was only seen once before Jason's passing and he was never seen there with his family.

===[[South Park: The Stick of Truth]]===
Maplebeard the Pirate King can be found at the [[Neighborhood Park]] playing with his some other pirate kindergarteners. When the player confronts [The Lord of Darkness]], Ike plays a role in setting off fireworks, and can be befriended, and later plays an even more valuable role in helping his big brother and the New Kid save the town, with the ultimate 'Kick the Baby'.
When visiting the Elven Kingdom in the land of Larnion during the game, Jason has been appointed to act as the official shopkeeper for the elves, proudly proclaiming that they craft "the finest shit" in all the land and allowing the player access to elven weapons. Upon making any purchase, he will add the player as a friend on Facebook.

===[[South Park: The Fractured But Whole]]===
Ike is one of the key characters in the mobile game, with multiple themed Ike cards available to the player, such as Gizmo Ike and Smuggler Ike.
During the game's storyline, Jason can be located at any time inside the [[Raisins]] restaurant, where he proclaims he will only take a selfie with the player if they are a brutalist, or have at least one attack from this class. He will then follow the player on Coonstagram when a selfie is attained and talk about how he believes one of the Raisins Girls is his girlfriend.


==Behind the Scenes==
==Behind the Scenes==
Trey Parker and Matt Stone both had no older sisters, but they thought it would be repetitive for both Stan and Kyle to have an older sister. [[Shelly Marsh]] was therefore based on Trey's sister, while Kyle was given a little brother instead, named Ike, who debuted way back in the original pilot for "[[Cartman Gets an Anal Probe]]", one of the few original characters outside the four boys still active in the show.
An early design for Jason appeared in the original, unaired version of "[[Cartman Gets an Anal Probe]]", and was drawn based on Matt and Trey's friend Jason McHugh, who appeared in and produced ''Cannibal! The Musical'' and ''Orgazmo''. His receding hairline, unusual for a child character, is borrowed from McHugh's actual appearance.
 
Ike was the original character with a 'flappy head', a design choice which wasn't intended to confer significance, but it soon became a fixture of all Canadian characters on the show, so "[[Ike's Wee-Wee]]" revealed that he was an adopted child from Canada.
 
Since the tenth season or so, Ike is usually shown wearing a green shirt and shorts outfit during the daytime or when outside the house, but at night, his classic blue pajamas still appear.


===Voice Actors===
The character did not reappear fully until season 6's "[[Professor Chaos]]", where he is seen and mentioned as one of the candidates to replace [[Kenny McCormick]] as the boys' fourth friend, beating out half of the other candidates to make it to the second round, and began appearing in the background, but did not make a speaking appearance until season 7's "[[South Park is Gay!]]".
Ike's voice actor or actress has changed frequently, as to assure he always sounds like a young child. This voice was usually been provided by the child of a crew member of the show, but there are challenges to using a child voice. Some parents don't allow their child to swear, even for South Park, so placeholder words are used, and then censored to sound like swear words, such as using "shoe" to sound like "shit" once 'bleeped'. As a result, some sequences where Ike or other young children swear remain censored even in 'uncensored' audio tracks.


During the production of "[[Taming Strange]]", Ike was given a more 'mature' voice in order to sound like a teenager, supplied by Matt Stone, and he and Trey considered keeping it, but decided the baby voice always got the best laughs.
In season 21's "[[Splatty Tomato]]", the White family was introduced and revealed to be Jason's parents, proclaiming they had been around 'since the beginning' and ignored, just as he was. Jason appeared alongside them but received no dialogue, but Trey expressed excitement in the commentary at having finally found something to do with him by putting him there, referencing the character's longevity. He was killed off in his next appearance.


As of [[Season Twenty]], Ike's voice is being provided by Betty Boogie Parker, Trey's real-life daughter, who has no problem swearing for her daddy.
Jason's voice was provided in six episodes total by series co-creator Trey Parker.

===Fan Reactions===
====Character Art: Ike====
Jason's lack of defined personal characteristics despite his more frequent references and distinctive appearance, and general lack of focus even compared to other secondary children, made him a joking target among fans, suggesting that he was eager to recieve attention and craves the spotlight. This was reflected in his official 'DNA overview' which included reference to Jason's desire for a chance to shine, even if only once.
Ike got a special "bro" pose for this scene in the show…

Prior to production, the writers toyed w/ the idea of making Ike look bigger, like a pubescent teenager.
His moment may have come too late as he was killed off just a few episodes later in "[[Season Finale]]", a decision which recieved a mixed to negative reaction among ''South Park'' fans, with many expressing disappointment on social media to see the character killed off and some for his limited role in the storyline. Social media chatter among fans focused heavily on his passing, and multiple posts on Tumblr received hundreds of notes referencing his death, including [http://alex-monte.tumblr.com/post/188871705667/once-part-of-craigs-group-for-one-episode memorials reflecting on his role in the show] and an astute observation that [http://strictlykyman.tumblr.com/post/188872444345/jason-dying-reminds-me-that-any-ancillary "any ancillary character could be killed off at any point and that’s kind of unsettling"].

*Jason made an unusual number of prominent appearances without receiving dialogue, clocking in with at least five episodes where he was referred to or part of the plot without speaking; thus why he is often described as quiet.
*Ike has conservative political views, as confirmed in "[[Obama Wins!]]" when he cries upon [[Barack Obama]]'s re-election victory over Republican [[Mitt Romney]].
** Out of his six speaking appearances, in both "[[Mr. Garrison's Fancy New Vagina]]" and "[[Imaginationland]]", his only line is to utter "Wow" in reaction to something important the main boys have done.

About

A longtime friend of the boys who has rarely ever spoken, most will easily recognize Jason for the fourth grader's inexplicably receding hairline and balding haircut. Often lending a hand when the boys and their extended friendship circles are screwing around, whether it's participating in sports or getting lost in a fantasy role-playing game, Jason has always been a playful and supportive friend, especially to Craig and Those Guys. Known for his love of sports, he plays basketball and football for the school's the South Park Cows. Though friendly and outgoing, he is noticeably quiet, especially in the presence of his father, Bob White, who has frequently protested his family's treatment in the town.

DNA Overview

You're friendly but mysterious. No one knows much about your personal life, and you're just fine with that. At the same time, people with Jason White DNA also secretly wish they'd be given the spotlight every so often. Even just once. Please.

"This playground is for metrosexuals, macho man!"

Death

While Randy Marsh was being held in County Jail on charges of terrorism for setting off bombs in the backyards of several marijuana home growers in town, the other boys, including Jason, Cartman, Kyle, Kenny, Butters, Craig, Clyde, Tolkien, Tweek, Dogpoo, Kevin and Curly were playing a football game at the Neighborhood Park, with Cartman having the ball. After Jason repeatedly insisted he was 'open' to recieve it despite Cartman asserting he couldn't catch, he chased the football into the street and was hit and ran over by a police vehicle.

His funeral was held the next day, where he was euologized by Father Maxi and his father, Bob White, and was also attended by Mrs. White, Crystal White, and Roger Donovan. They would find the time to move on though, soon adopting a young child named Alejandro.

Personality and Traits

Playfulness

Jason was known for his playful nature among the townspeople, and well-liked among his classmates. He was a member of both the South Park Cows' basketball team as well as the football team, and had a reputation for enjoying playing sports in his free time as well, often meeting classmates at the park to play football. He also played in many of their role-playing games, dedicating himself to the role of the eleven shopkeep as well as playing along under even Cartman's authority in the Texans vs. Mexicans game. At his funeral, Father Maxi observed it was his playful nature with sports that lead to his untimely death.

Notable Skills

Athleticism

As mentioned above, he was a member of both the South Park Cows' basketball team as well as the football team and often seen playing football with other students, suggesting that Jason was highly athletic, as only two other students played for both teams. He also expressed once that a football game would be less fun to watch if knowing the outcome in advance. He was singled out by Father Maxi for his interest in sports as well. Cartman observed that in his opinion Jason "couldn't catch", but seemed to be avoiding blame for Jason's death.

Memorable Quotes

Design and Outfits

Jason was a mostly average fourth grader, with long dark brown hair, sideburns over his small but noticeable ears, and a receding hairline that exposed most of his forehead. He wore a bright purple jacket with a darker collar, and fairly typical blue pants. According to Wendy Testaburger, he had noticeable freckles.

Costumes

While participating in the kids' role-playing games, Jason played a Border Patrol agent under Sheriff Eric Cartman, as well as one of the High Elf King's most loyal elven warriors and the proprietor of their main shop, where he frequently boasted of the elves' fine works.

Family

Little is known about Jason's relationship with his family as it was never explored while he was alive in either of the family's appearances. When Bob White speaks for the family in favor of the President's policies, his children both follow him around but do not address anything he says, appearing quiet and withdrawn. Jason's strict parents seemed to see him as a well-behaved child, as his crying mother remarked that he never used his phone after their cut-off time, nor tried to call long-distance. His relationship with his sister was never so much as hinted at.

Bob's euology for his son focused upon the challenges he felt the family faced, as well as the lack of attention and marijuana access the family faced in the wake of his death, while his mother cried extensively. They both appeared genuinely unsettled at first by his passing, but his father seemed largely over it after adopting again. After Jason's passing, Bob was seen hitting his new adoptive son, Alejandro White, suggesting Jason may have been the victim of similar abuse, explaining his quiet and withdrawn nature.

Love Interest

When the girls decided to break up with the boys en masse after weeks of trolling by an anonymous individual on the school message board, blonde classmate Emily was seen breaking up with a boy who strongly resembled Jason, although he appeared to be wearing a hairpiece.

Close Friends

Jason's closest friend was likely Tweek Tweak, whom he was seen with on multiple occasions, most notably when they were invited together to a party at Bebe Stevens' home. They often appeared alongside Craig and Those Guys together, although Jason appeared less often without him. Tweek was noticeably more upset with Jason's death than their other classmates. He also may have been friendly with Tolkien outside the group, as they were both on the same Cows basketball team together.

He seemed to have an odd friendship with Eric Cartman, who referred to them as "pretty" close after Jason's death, with Jason among the boys who helped him during the Jersey invasion effort to trap Kyle at the nearby Sizzler, alongside Dogpoo Petuski, both of which were later invited to the sleepover party Cartman's House, where he and Dogpoo played Border Patrol agents for Cartman in Texas vs. Mexicans. Both were also present when he died.

Though he very occasionally sat with Craig's friends and the main boys, he was usually seen sitting elsewhere with Scott Malkinson, Daniel Tanner, Louis and some unknown boys. In addition to the previously mentioned characters, he was also sometimes seen in the background with Kevin Stoley, such as in the episode "Marjorine" and his final appearance.

Classmates

The below children were friendly with Jason as a classmate but were not known to have interacted with him personally outside larger social gatherings.

Affiliations

As mentioned above, Jason was for some time an active member of Craig and Those Guys, most notably during the metrosexual fad when he was one of their more vocal members, and still hung around with them until roughly the thirteenth season. He was also part of the fantasy role-playing group for The Fellowship of the Lord of the Rings.

He was also a key member of the Cows Basketball Players team, reflecting his love of sports, and a secondary member of the football and sarcastaball team as well.

Former Residence

Though the Whites have been here since the beginning, their residence was only seen once before Jason's passing and he was never seen there with his family.

Appearances and Sightings

Featured Episodes

Notable Cameos

Video Games

South Park: The Stick of Truth

When visiting the Elven Kingdom in the land of Larnion during the game, Jason has been appointed to act as the official shopkeeper for the elves, proudly proclaiming that they craft "the finest shit" in all the land and allowing the player access to elven weapons. Upon making any purchase, he will add the player as a friend on Facebook.

South Park: The Fractured But Whole

During the game's storyline, Jason can be located at any time inside the Raisins restaurant, where he proclaims he will only take a selfie with the player if they are a brutalist, or have at least one attack from this class. He will then follow the player on Coonstagram when a selfie is attained and talk about how he believes one of the Raisins Girls is his girlfriend.

Behind the Scenes

An early design for Jason appeared in the original, unaired version of "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe", and was drawn based on Matt and Trey's friend Jason McHugh, who appeared in and produced Cannibal! The Musical and Orgazmo. His receding hairline, unusual for a child character, is borrowed from McHugh's actual appearance.

The character did not reappear fully until season 6's "Professor Chaos", where he is seen and mentioned as one of the candidates to replace Kenny McCormick as the boys' fourth friend, beating out half of the other candidates to make it to the second round, and began appearing in the background, but did not make a speaking appearance until season 7's "South Park is Gay!".

In season 21's "Splatty Tomato", the White family was introduced and revealed to be Jason's parents, proclaiming they had been around 'since the beginning' and ignored, just as he was. Jason appeared alongside them but received no dialogue, but Trey expressed excitement in the commentary at having finally found something to do with him by putting him there, referencing the character's longevity. He was killed off in his next appearance.

Jason's voice was provided in six episodes total by series co-creator Trey Parker.

Fan Reactions

Jason's lack of defined personal characteristics despite his more frequent references and distinctive appearance, and general lack of focus even compared to other secondary children, made him a joking target among fans, suggesting that he was eager to recieve attention and craves the spotlight. This was reflected in his official 'DNA overview' which included reference to Jason's desire for a chance to shine, even if only once.

His moment may have come too late as he was killed off just a few episodes later in "Season Finale", a decision which recieved a mixed to negative reaction among South Park fans, with many expressing disappointment on social media to see the character killed off and some for his limited role in the storyline. Social media chatter among fans focused heavily on his passing, and multiple posts on Tumblr received hundreds of notes referencing his death, including memorials reflecting on his role in the show and an astute observation that "any ancillary character could be killed off at any point and that’s kind of unsettling".

Bonus Factoids

  • Jason made an unusual number of prominent appearances without receiving dialogue, clocking in with at least five episodes where he was referred to or part of the plot without speaking; thus why he is often described as quiet.
  • In all of the show's seasons, Jason only once appeared in the main characters' classroom, in season 7's "South Park is Gay!"; he has otherwise appeared to be in a separate, unseen fourth grade classroom.
