OE
The most important word here is the adjective “similar.” If both South Park and College Humor created a similar spoof, then one of them must have stolen the sketch from the other.
Amalgamated and combined are an incorrect pair. Indulged (allowed oneself to enjoy) and assumed (supposed without proof) have no relationship. Assumed can mean “took or began to have (power or responsibility)” or even “took on or adopted (an appearance, manner, or identity),” but you wouldn’t use assume to mean the taking of any other kind of item, such as a comedy spoof.
