The Structure
Firstly in South Park , it mostly starts off with the four main
characters standing at the bus stop and the camera is viewing
all of them. As the time passes someone always mentions
something which is most probably the main subject of the
story in the episode.
As it builds in , the story gets more serious , and connects more
with the main story. The boys try to solve it trying different
methods and also travelling alot. at the end, they manage to
solve the problem. Every South park episode is very confusing
and the episodes are very unusual and would be expected. It
then ends with the four main characters happy.
