Not exactly.

Whilst I certainly like the idea of TJG being an alternate reality version of South Park, I felt that instead of having a character that dies in every episode, it would be better if Rob (who is a Cartman-like major character and the mascot of the show) would be written off in Season 5 (after he is exposed to a lethal dose of radiation and ascends to higher plane of existence in the second-to-last episode "Meridian") and have him absent throughout Season 6.

Of course, he comes back and re-joins the group in the Season 7 and remains in place as of right now.
