Description

How come some shows get cancelled for a joke but South Park can say anything it wants? The answer comes down to understanding what the joke truly means for the story. I'll talk about three things South Park does right and where Lesbian Space Princess and Chimptopia fail at. That way you can still speak you're mind without the entire internet trying to kill you. #southpark #indieanimation #writer
