Crude, Offensive, Show or Intelligent Comic Relief?
No one is safe. Not in South Park, Colorado. Not Third-Graders, Stan, Kyle, or Cartman, who himself confronts alien visitors, brain-eating zombies, and death. Not their friend Kenny - he gets killed in every episode. His carcass carted off by scurrying rats. Not even the towns people, who are attacked by vicious, genetically engineered turkeys, narrowly escape molten lava, and even host a boxing match between Jesus Christ and Satan.
Amazingly, for all its self-conscious offensiveness, the show has generated little negative attention. Ethnic , religious, sexual, and political subjects are all fair game for the showâ
