South Park

description

Describing "South Park" TV show as "an American animated sitcom" compares with characterizing baseball as "an American form of exercise" such flagrant under-statement it is just insulting and unlawful in thirty-seven states. Over the course of its more than two-hundred episodes, "South Park" has achieved the exalted status of cultural icon and ratings bonanza. "South Park" consistently tops the basic cable charts, and it has earned distinction as Comedy Central's highest rated and longest running show. From their South Park, Colorado, vantage, four foul-mouthed but frighteningly precocious elementary schoolers willingly satirize everything from politics to the prophet Mohammed. Everything is grist for Stan Marsh's, Kyle Broflovski's, Eric Cartman's, and Kenny McCormick's mills. "South Park's" distinctive cut-out animation, originally done by hand but now computer-generated, adds to its often surreal and always dark humor. Generally heralded as the internet's first "viral" video, since 1997, "South Park" has garnered four primetime Emmy Awards and a Peabody Award for Comedy Central.

Bob's Burgers

Animation & Cartoons
"Bob's Burgers" re-opened on Main Street in its imaginary town just in time to fill a gap and restore the life in Fox Network's Sunday-night "Animation Domination" line-up. For at least three seasons, the animation had remained, but the domination drained away. "Bob's Burgers" brought back the disaffected viewers, immediately scoring excellent ratings and even better reviews. Of course, local restaurateur Bob has a troubled family; who doesn't? Unlike the Simpsons, your favourite family guy, and the folks in Cleveland's neighbourhood, however, Bob's family doesn't even put-up a pretence to reconciliation and love. Why would they? They are far funnier when they fight. Each character is as flat as the simple drawings that bring the people to life: Bob's wife Tina idealizes marriage. Daughters Louise and Linda are a trouble-maker and a freak respectively; and son Gene is the avatar of all things loud and obnoxious. The simple stuff works because the writers and animators have talent and skill to play it to the max. "Bob's Burgers" has the right ingredients in the right proportions"”spectacular writing combines with simple-but-engaging animation as expert comedians deliver the lines even better than the writers intended. One critic, pointing out the characters' "lovability," noted, "Two minutes into the second episode, countless winning jokes already have hit the mark." Wow, an animated series that actually delivers what the viewers crave? What a concept!
