South Park the world-widely known American animated sitcom gained its success and reputation mainly due to its smart sarcasm, sharp social criticism, dark humor, and harsh profanity. The show itself debuted in 1997, gaining great popularity from the start. Every single episode evolve around the life of four boys (Cartman, Kyle, Kenny, and Stan) who live in South Park, Colorado. Although, all four boys tend to use inappropriate language; Eric Cartman is outstanding in this respect as well. His ignorant and obnoxious character also reinforces Jewish stereotypes, such as that they cannot play basketball and hockey, they do not have rhythm, and they cannot be pirates.
