Cartman is an elementary school student who lives with his mother in the fictional town of South Park, Colorado, where he routinely has extraordinary experiences atypical of a small town. Cartman has been portrayed as aggressive, prejudiced, arrogant, and narcissistic since his character'
s inception;
Stone and Parker describe the character as "a
little Archie Bunker". These traits are significantly augmented in later seasons as his character evolves, and he begins to exhibit extremely psychopathic, sociopathic and manipulative behavior, and also be depicted as highly intelligent, able to execute morally appalling plans and business ideas with success.
Cartman is considered to be the most
popular character on South Park.234 Parker and
Stone state that he is their favorite character, and the one with whom they most identify. South Park has received both praise and criticism for Cartman'
s politically incorrect behavior. Prominent publications and television channels have included Cartman on their lists as one of the most
iconic television and cartoon characters of all
time.
