In some people's eyes, Eric Cartman is seen as appauling and shocking on American television. He is a very controvercial character. Some of the things that he says and does are completely inappropriate and looked down upon. Some people in America are very fascinated by this character. They think what he does is simply "funny" and "the best character ever". I think that people judge this character before watching the show. It is not fair to judge Eric until you watch South Park. People love him, or they hate him; there is no in between level of likeness. Eric is understood as the bad guy in South Park. He is very arrogant and up front about everything.
DORA THE EXPLORER
Dora is the female heroin of the 20th century. She is a cartoon character who is latina who speaks spanish. This is a fabulous idea for a cartoon character. I babysit a family who has three girls and all of them LOVE Dora. They read her books every night--and surprisingly, they are learning some spanish while doing it! I think it is great that a cartoon character can teach young people a new language. This was an excellent idea for a character. Dora is fascinating because she is the first popular cartoon character to speaks two languages. She is understood as a cute, fun, spanish-speaking latina!
JOHNNY DRAMA
Johnny Drama is from the hit TV show Entorage. He is an important character in our culture because he represents hard work and determination. Well, not quite, but he's getting there. Johnny is Vince's brother. Vince is a movie star and Johnny basically lives off of his little brother. Johnny starred in a TV show when he was younger, so he still thinks he can make it. Johnny has many qualities that make him intriguing. He is very funny and he's self concious about this body. He doesn't think that he has "manly" calves. He is very jealous when he sees other men with strong, masculine calves. I think it is good to have a character who is self concious about somthing because most characters are very confident and flawless. Johnny shows people that just because you were "cool" back in the day, it doesn't mean you will maintain the "coolness". Johnny Drama is a reality check for Americans everywhere in the US.

I like how you picked Dora the Explorer because my cousin loves that show and I have to watch it with her when I babysit and it seems that it is like the show to watch for preschool to kids. She is a good role and interesting because she does speak two languages and helps promote that to young children. I've never seen Entourage but reading about Johnny Drama makes me want to start!
I think that is a good idea to create a character who represents a different culture and also can teach little kids different languages. I have never seen engorage but i heard it is really good!
I think Dora is a cute, fun, spanish-speaking, latina too!
