Tonight's South Park (Nov 5th, One Day After The Election) featured an animated version of yesterday's acceptance speech by Obama and many other current issues. How did they manage to make an episode in less than 24 hours.

I would bet they had 2 versions ready to go, and knew where they would throw in their voice overs and just waited for the material.

I am assuming they cut two versions of the episode, or they were just very hopeful.

It normally takes 6 days, so they just condensed it down, and they probably made most of it well before election day. If you notice, a lot of it is not dependent on the winner.
