Park: Critical Examinations of Animated Transgression is an edited
collection by Brian Cogan that looks at the long and controversial
run of one of the most subversive programs on television. South
Park, while denounced by many as simply scatological, is actually
one of the most nuanced and thoughtful programs on television. The
contributors to South Park reveal that, through the lens of four
foul-mouthed nine year olds, Trey Parker and Matt Stone have
created one of the most astute forms of social and political
commentary in television history.Deconstructing South Park, itself
the most ambitious deconstruction of popular culture to date,
analyzes how South Park is not only entertainment, but a commentary
on American culture that tackles controversial issues far beyond
the depth of most television. Specifically, the medium of animated
sitcom allows the show's creators to contribute to cultural
conversations regarding disability studies, religion, sexuality,
celebrity, and more. If South Park deconstructs American culture,
then Cogan and his contributors deconstruct the deconstructionists
and reveal South Park in all its hilarious and often contradictory
complexity.
