Satire via South Park, satire via The Daily Show and satire via The Simpsons(to a lesser extent the past few years).
Satire has a way of cutting through the bullshit and spin to expose things how they really are in a funny, yet incredibly intelligent way. In addition to being superficially funny all the shows I listed have a lot of nuance below the surface.
