A Small Mountain Town

A small mountain town called South Park. This adult comedic cartoon has been airing for approximately 13 years and has never quenched its thirst in ridiculing the arrogant and daring to offend.

The cartoon started out on a very low budget and subsequently had to be created using cut-outs that looked like a child had cut out some digital printing. But this didn’t affect the programmes popularity, oh no, the use of vulgar language and the philosophy of everything gets slander or nothing does proves that the creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone are entirely committed to being fair and funny.

If you’re looking for bizarre television, something different and eternally original and amusing, this is undoubtedly the programme that will fulfil those requirements. Ever entertaining, the 14 season series offers a wide variety of humour and lovable characters.

Seemingly preaching the idea of a pro-active, intelligent younger generation. The programme features four main characters Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, Eric Cartman and Kenny McCormick who are all outrageously “grown-up” in their individual respects.

First there is the everyman, Stan, who has matured in terms of common sense, then Kyle who is morally developed. Eric Cartman, who is often seen by many as the “evil genius” is quite blatantly the most intelligent, and Kenny (poor Kenny) is the most sexually advanced of the group.

With other additional characters such as the gullible Leopold ’Butters'Scotch, and the constant supply of victim celebrities the town of South Park is indeed a bizarre and …unusual place.

TV Shows – Silliness Is Universal

TV Shows – Silliness Is Universal

There was a time when you had to search for silly television shows within your own country. Today, one can make use of the internet to check out television shows from all over the world. All it takes is the right software or membership to the right forums to find the oldest television shows possible.

One thing that I have understood from watching all these shows is that stupidity is a universal phenomenon. A female model in desperate need of hair loss treatments will prance around in front of the screen pretending as if she is the most beautiful person on the planet. What is more, this show will have many sponsors, indicating its popularity and appeal. One just has to wonder what sort of people would watch these shows.

The answer comes very quickly. Bored people. People who have no other form of entertainment. People who cannot afford anything better. People who know that this is a very bad show that they are watching but still do so because they don’t have a choice. Of course, the cultural aspect also enters the picture.

People watch it because they have become used to it. Just download a Soviet television program from the 80’s and you will be astounded by the sheer crudeness of work. One would have expected the communist state to have something better for its masses. However, people accepted this even though they may wish to forget today that they were watched such a show in the past.
