South Park Marginalization After watching the Big Gay Al South Park episode in our recent discussion group I realized that there is much more to South Park then I originally realized. Usually when I watch this hilarious show, I am not trying to interpret and analyze the show with a sociological lens. Now that I have taken this class, I have learned to look at everything in a new light especially television. The show's humor …showed first 75 words of 551 total…

…showed last 75 words of 551 total…of people that only care about themselves. This, I feel, demonstrates this stereotype. After taking this class, watching shows like South Park will never be the same. Once you get past all of the slapstick, fart jokes, and profanity, you can realize that there is actually a lot of symbolism. Even though some of the symbolism may be a little offensive to some people, it conveys some very insightful sociological messages about discrimination in America.
