Shock humour

This can be achieved through excessively foul toilet humour, overt sexual themes, mocking of serious themes (otherwise known as black comedy), or through tactlessness in the aftermath of a crisis.

Such risque broadcasting can cause controversy, such as Jim Quinn and Don Jefferson's "Stupid Human Tricks" segment of their late-1980s WBZZ-FM show.

[1] Practitioners of shock humour include Andrew Dice Clay,[2] Tom Green, Eric André, and Sam Hyde.

The television shows The Ren & Stimpy Show, Robot Chicken, South Park, Family Guy, Superjail!, Jackass, Drawn Together, Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt, Rick and Morty, Beavis and Butt-Head and Da Ali G Show have also been described as shock humour.
