Parody shows are comedic programs that imitate and exaggerate the style, characters, or themes of other media, such as movies, television series, or music. They often use humor to critique or comment on the original work, making them entertaining for audiences familiar with the source material. Popular examples include Saturday Night Live and The Simpsons. These shows typically feature sketches, songs, or segments that highlight the absurdities of the original content. By using satire and humor, parody shows can provide social commentary while engaging viewers. They often appeal to a wide audience, as they rely on shared cultural references for their comedic effect.
