"T.M.I." is the fourth episode of the fifteenth season of the American animated television series South Park, and the 213th episode of the series overall. "T.M.I." premiered in the United States on Comedy Central on May 18, 2011. The episode centers on Eric Cartman being sent to an anger management class after he protests what he mistakenly believes to be the school's publicizing the male students' penis sizes. "T.M.I." was written and directed by series co-creator Trey Parker, and was rated TV-MA L in the United States.
At South Park Elementary, Cartman has a meltdown in the cafeteria, swearing over the publicly posted results of the students' annual school physicals, which document how much each student has grown in height, mistakenly understanding them to be a list of all the boys' penis sizes. Embarrassed because his number is the smallest, and shorter than his real length, he organizes the measurement all of his male schoolmates' penises and posts his own findings in the hall. He is then called to Principal Victoria's office, who explains what the first list actually documented. To make matters worse, Cartman has found that his penis really is the smallest of all the boys in the school. The principal points out that Cartman's anger typically leads to this kind of overreaction and trouble ("And this time, you've done it to yourself!") and sends him to a consultation session with a psychiatrist after he curses her out. Cartman is tested to see how he deals with anger. While the psychiatrist tries to incite him into anger with insults about his obesity, Cartman, who would usually go ballistic over such jokes, seems to take it calmly, texting on the phone. The therapist is just about to conclude that Cartman is the most calm child he's ever met, when the secretary shows up with his wife on the phone, saying she just received a text (sent by Mitch Connor) implicating the psychiatrist in an affair with a 14-year-old girl on the Internet before committing suicide over the phone. Cartman then menacingly replies to the psychiatrist, "I'm not fat; I'm big-boned."
