Kenny McCormick is a main character from the animated series South Park, known for his poverty, orange parka that muffles his speech, and his frequent, comical deaths in the early seasons, which were followed by his resurrection and the catchphrase, "Oh my God, they killed Kenny!". He is one of the four main boys, friends with Stan, Kyle, and Cartman, and is voiced by co-creator Matt Stone. His character is based on a real-life childhood friend of Trey Parker, who wore a similar orange parka.
