South Park Analyzation: Part 2

In this post I will talk about another scene from a different episode of South Park. This time, I will pull a scene from the episode "Cartoon Wars." This is the first episode of a two parter in which Trey Parker and Matt Stone are showing why the writers of "Family Guy" are really not that funny. In this scene, South Park uses its own animation to impersonate a "Family Guy" scene.

In this scene, the animation is not too different from what it actually is in Family Guy. There are some slight differences, as the characters' in this episode are made to make them look a little bit more ugly. The dog is also a different color here than what he is in "Family Guy." I'm not really sure why they made it this way, or like that for every other cartoon they portray, but I'm guessing the FCC or copyright has something to do with it.



These two pictures here are to allow you to look for yourself what the differences are from the real Family Guy (right) and from South Park's version (left). As you can see, there are slight, but noticeable differences in the pictures. Not only the differences with the carpet and rug, but almost everything about them is slightly different. From the clothing to the window everything is different, but if you're somebody who has watched both shows, you'd still recognize who they are portraying.
