South Park is skipping a week. The hit satirical show has unveiled its first episode, but fans will have to wait a bit longer for the next season 27 installment, according to a trailer teasing the second episode.
After a hectic rollout, South Park’s new season is underway and its new streaming home is now clear. Per a report from Deadline, five upcoming seasons and the show’s back catalog will be on Comedy Central and Paramount Plus with the signing of a new deal. Forthcoming episodes of South Park season 27 will stream on Paramount Plus in the US the day after airing on Comedy Central. South Park will return to Paramount Plus internationally and won’t continue to stream on HBO Max past early August.
As for what the new season will entail, we have the new episode 2 teaser and above video for reference — which starts sort of like a horror movie trailer before fires are unleashed, the Statue of Liberty is dismantled and disastrous plane collisions occur. If you want to watch the 27th season of the show co-created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, here’s what to know.
South Park season 27, episode 2 release date and streaming details
South Park season 27, episode 2 will premiere on Comedy Central on Wednesday, Aug. 6, at 10 p.m. ET/10 p.m. PT/9 p.m. CT and stream on Paramount Plus the next day (the first episode is already on the streaming service).
Season 27 episodes will hit Paramount Plus in the US the day after they air on Comedy Central, according to Deadline. If you don’t want to wait that long to watch without cable, you might want to consider a live TV streaming service like Philo, Sling or YouTube TV. More on that below.
