Like the original Fat Albert show, the Fat Abbott show is about a group of lower-to-middle-class African American inner city kids and their horribly obese leader (the eponymous Fat Abbot), who hang out in the local junkyard and who spend their time dealing with the numerous problems that arise in their lives. In the episode "Rainforest Shmainforest", Cartman mentions the show while ranting on about the things he'd be doing at home if he wasn't lost in the rainforest with a hippie activist; watching Fat Abbot cartoons with Mr. Kitty.
