Critique has evolved from Evelyn Waugh's 'The Loved One' to biting social commentary through reality TV show parodies and social media skits.

The evolution here is marked by the shift from solemn discussions in literature and philosophy to the irreverent humor in platforms like 'South Park' and stand-up comedy.

What started as direct commentary in texts like 'Catch-22' has evolved into subtle, situational humor found in shows like 'Parks and Recreation'.

Once addressed through allegorical criticisms such as 'Heart of Darkness', modern satire employs historical revisionism and speculative fiction to critique past and current imperialistic tendencies.

Satire has matured from Wilde's 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' to contemporary lampooning in television like 'Nip/Tuck', with a strong emphasis on cosmetic surgery and societal pressures.

Older, more subtle literary allusions have made way for visual parodies and mockumentaries that directly lampoon artist tropes and music culture, such as 'Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping'.

Earlier satires, such as in 'The Devil Wears Prada', have given way to more explicit critiques in social media, blogs, and 'fast fashion' commentary.

Initial cautionary approaches in literature have evolved into a blend of dark humor and stark reality in documentaries and films like 'Don't Look Up'.

Past satires like 'M*A*S*H' intermixed humor and drama, whereas contemporary examples, seen in film and digital shorts, offer biting critiques of militarism and foreign policy.

The subject has evolved from the nuanced sarcasm in 'Pride and Prejudice' to more overt comedic takes in modern sitcoms like 'Modern Family'.

Early 20th-century novels like 'The Great Gatsby' gave way to more direct and cynical treatments in shows like 'Breaking Bad', which present the American Dream as elusive or corrupted.

Direct criticisms in literature like 'Bleak House' have shifted to humorous portrayals in television series such as 'Boston Legal' and 'Better Call Saul'.

From the stark satire in 'The Jungle' to the dark comedic take in 'Office Space', the topic has been addressed with varying levels of severity and humor.

What began as sardonic novels like 'Lucky Jim' has changed into playful yet critical takes in web series and films such as 'Community' and 'Dear White People'.

Early, more subdued critiques in novels have shifted to overt and scathing commentary in series such as 'Nurse Jackie' and satirical sites like 'The Onion'.
