Homework Vocab








South Park: South Park is a great example for black humor. South Park may be the best at using black humor to create comedy. It gets most of its humor by pushing the limits and boundaries of comedy. As you can see on the left Michael Jackson is playing with Eric Cartman, because Michael was accused of child molestation it is pushing the boundaries making black humor.












Steven Wright: Steven Wright is a prime example of deadpan humor. Throughout his events he acts as if what he is saying is real does not change facial expression. He tells his storys and jokes with little to no emotion making it really funny.














Kenny vs Spenny : Kenny vs Spenny uses slapstick in every episode. Every episode the loser of a competition must do a humiliation. As you can see the competions they go through usually have to do with inflicting pain or embarrassment.






Family Guy: Many times you will see Family Guy using satire. They often try to change peoples political views. As you can see on the left Peter is holding a Pig in the car with Bill Clinton.
