Additional new episodes will roll out to the broadcast every other Wednesday: October 15, October 29, November 12, November 26 and December 10.
“Apparently when you do everything at the last minute sometimes you don’t get it done,” said series creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. “This one’s on us. We didn’t get it done in time. Thanks to Comedy Central and South Park fans for being so understanding. Tune in next week!”
Last week, it was reported that the season’s second episode, “Got a Nut,” had been pulled from Comedy Central’s re-run schedule due to its references to Charlie Kirk, the conservative advocate who was shot and killed while speaking at his “American Comeback Tour” kick-off event at Utah Valley University on September 10.
Unlike previous episode rollouts in this headline-grabbing season, which has aggressively taken on the Donald Trump presidency, Comedy Central had not announced the episode title or logline for the installment due to premiere this week.
All episodes of South Park are available to stream on Paramount+, with new eps. arriving the day after their broadcast debut on Comedy Central.
