Life becomes more beautiful when accompanied by laughter, and comedy reminds us that we all share the same follies and failures. It allows us to de-dramatize and see the extraordinary in the everyday, where even our flaws and downfalls become anecdotes that at the end of the day unite and humanize us.

¡Ahí está el detalle!

When was the last time you laughed out loud?

South Park #

South Park is undoubtedly my favorite comedy show, far above others like Rick and Morty or even The Simpsons. What I value most about South Park is its sharp satire and social critique. In a single episode, the series has the ability to offer multiple perspectives while being brutally incisive about the contradictions that permeate our society. It does not merely question the behaviors or customs of individuals, groups, or institutions; rather, it exposes the flaws and absurdities that we often overlook.

Many episodes of South Park are simply entertaining, but others invite reflection on one or several topics, thus generating change or, at the very least, raising necessary awareness.

My collection is in Spanish because I love the Latin dubbed version.

Rudy Ray Moore: [Speaking with the Bihari Brothers about them helping finance the production of “Dolemite” by giving up future royalties to his records] I’m going to bet on myself. Ain’t nobody going to put me on the screen except for me, and everybody I talk to say they want to see a “Dolemite” movie.

Julius Bihari: Well, we understand. You’re not supposed to make a movie for the five square blocks of people you know.

Rudy Ray Moore: [takes pause] Well… that’s fine with me. ‘Cause every city in America got those same five blocks. And those folks is going to love it!
