In South Park Season 11, Episode 1 (“With Apologies to Jesse Jackson”), Randy says the N-word during a live broadcast of Wheel of Fortune.
The scene is built around a puzzle where the correct answer is “naggers” (people who nag), but Randy blurts out the racial slur instead. The episode then focuses on the fallout, public outrage, and the difference between intent and impact.
The show uses the moment satirically to critique racism, public apologies, and the idea that ignorance excuses harm — but it’s intentionally uncomfortable and controversial.
