Intertextuality

My example of intertextuality is from a South Park episode where Cartman is behaving really badly so his mom gets him on Nanny 911 and Super Nanny in hopes that the nannies will help improve Cartman’s behavior.  With no success from the nannies, a doctor recommends that Cartman’s mom call the Dog Whisperer.  So obviously already we have a lot of examples of intertextuality from South Park referencing other TV shows (Nanny 911, Super Nanny, and Dog Whisperer).  I have watched the shows Nanny 911 and the Dog Whisperer so I could easily see the parallels between those shows and how they were portrayed on South Park.  Cesar Millan form the Dog Whisperer treats Cartman as if he were a dog and uses the same techniques that he would use on dogs with behavioral problems.
