"South Park" will take on their version of TLC's hit "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" on Wednesday, Oct. 3.

In a preview clip for the episode, titled "Raising the Bar," Mama June tries to pick out a "hog with pizzazz" at a pig farm.

"We wanna pick a pig that has pizzazz and knows how to work it, girl," Mama June says in the clip.

"I want that one!" Honey Boo Boo replied. She then points out another. "That pig over there gave me the evil eye. I want that one! I want that one!"

"Here Comes Honey boo" premiered its first episode in August this year. The reality show follows 7-year-old beauty pageant queen Alana Thomspon, nicknamed "Honey Boo Boo." Since its debut, the show reportedly draws an average of 2.4 million viewers in the 1 to 49 year-old age segment.

The show's Aug. 29 episode attracted more viewers than Fox News' coverage of the Republican National Convention.  The Sept. 5 episode of "HCHBB" tied CNN's coverage of the Democratic National Convention, according to The New York Times.

Last month, The Hollywood Reporter claimed the Shannon-Thompson family was being paid a mere $2,000-$4,000 per episode. But Shannon told TMZ, they were paid "a good deal more."

According to TMZ sources, at first the family was getting paid $5,000-$7,000 an episode, but when the TLC executives saw it was a big hit, their salary skyrocketed along with ratings. Sources allege the Shannon-Thompson family is paid $15,000-$20,000 an episode.

The show has been such a TLC hit that the network has three HOLLAday specials (Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas) and additional episodes of "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" coming up.

"South Park" was created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone for Comedy Central. The cartoon focuses on the misadventures of four troublesome boys who use foul language in every episode in a a fictional town in Colorado.

Watch the short video clip of the episode, titled "Raising the Bar," featuring Honey Boo Boo and her mother, Mama June.
