South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone have spoken out about the streaming fate of the show’s 27th season, which has just been delayed yet again – though this time just by a couple of weeks.
“This merger is a sh*tshow and it’s f*cking up South Park,” Parker and Stone wrote on X via the official South Park account. “We are at the studio working on new episodes, and we hope the fans get to see them somehow.”
According to Deadline, the merger in question involves Skydance’s pending acquisition of Comedy Central parent Paramount Global. It’s a little confusing (to me, anyway) but South Park’s previous $500 million deal with HBO Max expired last week – and Paramount Plus is set to pick it up…but no official deal has been made. As of right now, the show will still premiere on Comedy Central, but season 27 doesn’t have a streaming home just yet.
