The Brown Noise

(One of my favorite episodes has one of the main characters confronting his father about the LACK of sexual abuse he suffered as a child, "Why? Wasn’t I good enough for you!?" Another character on the show explains that, having watched so many talk shows about people molesting there children, the other character has come to think of that as a normal way of showing affection.) The creators of South Park, and other satirical programs of this type, turn around the expectations of the watcher and attack difficult social issues.
