South Park usually stayed within "cartoon dark," like someone grinding up his enemy's parents and making them into chili. A kid picking up drinking just to be able to deal with the world? That's not "cartoon dark." That's genuinely quite dark.
"Dexter looked positively giddy while bagging those snakes. Do none of his coworkers find that odd?"
