OMG NOT THIS AGAIN. Just when we were about to get new South Park chaos injected into our veins, BOOM — it’s been delayed. Like your crush replying “lol” 3 days later. Rude.
So here’s the drama: Season 27 was supposed to premiere July 9th and now it’s been pushed to July 23rd. TWO WHOLE WEEKS. That’s like 17 TikTok trends and 4 minor existential crises.
And the reason? Buckle up babes — it’s a full-on corporate cage match between Paramount and Skydance. Basically a bunch of rich guys are merging their media empires like it’s The Avengers but messier and with more lawsuits.
Enter Trey Parker and Matt Stone aka the chaotic uncles of Gen Z’s brain chemistry. These two are NOT having it. They dropped a statement that basically read like a verbal grenade:
“This merger is a sh*t show and it’s f*cking up South Park. We’re literally in the studio making new episodes and we have NO IDEA what’s going on.”
Screamed, cried, threw a taco at the wall. 🍟😭
ICYMI, this is the first real season in like TWO YEARS (aka a whole pandemic + several Kardashians later). The teaser promised episodes about Diddy’s courtroom circus, planes falling out of the sky (casual), and whatever other madness the FAA is doing these days. So yeah… we were READY.
But between FCC approval, Donald Trump lawsuits (???), and a whole side drama with streaming rights (Max and Netflix fighting like divorced parents), this season is trapped in the Matrix.
TL;DR: South Park Season 27 is coming. Eventually. Maybe. Unless someone buys the FCC on eBay or Trey and Matt start posting the episodes on BeReal.
