Blog about how the sample you found uses humor to address its topic:
The show in general is a play on words almost every show, with guest appearances by famous people here and there. On the South Park episode about fishsticks, they are using a play on words throughout the show. Timmy and Eric create a joke that everyone seems to like, but its so dumb its funny. Sometimes this method works because it catches peoples attention because of the wording, but then they take it to the next level by makin a whole episode about fishsticks. Their method of consistently repeating the word, fishsticks, throughout the episode causes you to remember the subject matter pretty well (which is a good idea if your trying to tell a specific thing to an audience or keep them interested). I also notice this method elsewhere in magazines and commercials, and it seems to work pretty well for visual use as well. The pun/play on words and repeating it causes it to stick in your mind for quite a long time, useful like I said.
