Verbal and Nonverbal Communication

The show is the “Simpsons”. The main characters are Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie. I like the Simpson because they are funny. It is worse than slapstick funny. Every part of the show has something funny, Marge’s blue hair, Bart and Lisa obvious differences in personality, Homer’s fatness, etc. I believe that the Simpsons T.V. show was developed mostly for families.

The cartoon’s characters are an excellent show of our society. In my opinion the Simpsons could be possibly be one of the best television show running in the present day.

Chronemics – one of the non-verbal types that I observe with this sitcom is that the children, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie, have been the same age since the show began over 10 years ago. In real life sitcoms children grow up and change. It is hard to come with new show idea when you are keeping the same... [continues]
