South park critique.

South park is one of my favourite animated TV shows. I absolutely love it because it is hilarious and it never fail to make me laugh. Although, sometimes it does go over the top with the language. South park is an American animation show. It was created but Trey Parker and Matt Stone. The show is very popular and a famous show due to humour and language. The show revolves around four young boys called; Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, Eric Cartman and Kenny McCormick. South Park debuted in August 1997 with great success. The pilot episode was produced using cutout animation. All subsequent episodes are created with software  that emulates the cutout technique. Parker and Stone perform most of the voice acting. Since 2000, each episode is typically written and produced during the week preceding its broadcast, with Parker serving as the primary writer and director.

In June 1999, South park: bigger, longer and uncut was released. It became box office and critical success. The animation is inspired by the paper cut-out cartoons by Terry Gilliam and Monty Python's flying circus and Parker and Stone are life long fans. Their movements are animated in an intentionally jerky fashion, as they are purposely not offered the same free range of motion associated with hand-drawn characters. The animation is so much better with the software that is now being used. 






I think that people that have not yet seen South park, will like it for the humour and language, In my opinion i think it's really enjoyable and almost everyone i know loves it!
