Return of 'South Park' Season 27, Episode 2: Scheduled After Show's Break?
South Park Season 27 Episode 2 Airs Next Week Amidst Controversy and Hiatus
After an unexpected hiatus, South Park is set to return with its highly anticipated second episode of Season 27 on August 6, 2025. The episode will air on cable's Comedy Central at 10:00 PM Pacific/Eastern, followed by streaming availability on Paramount+ the next day, August 7, 2025.
The delay in the episode's release came after the controversial premiere, which sparked discussion and response from political figures due to its provocative portrayal of President Donald Trump. Trey Parker, one of the show's creators, assured fans at San Diego Comic Con that the shows will remain topical and no episodes will be canned presentations.
The promotional video for the upcoming episode teases President Trump rubbing Satan's leg under a dinner table, and features Mr. Garrison riding in an ICE vehicle with masked ICE officers, holding a weapon and covering his face. Additionally, a debate about abortion at South Park Elementary is shown, with PC "Power Christian" Principal present.
It's worth noting that no information has been provided about the clips featuring Trump, Cartman, and Mr. Garrison in the August 6 episode.
In other news, the deal between South Park's creators, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, and Paramount Global, moved Seasons 1-26 of South Park to Paramount+ and requires the duo to produce 50 new episodes over the next five years. The premiere episode of South Park Season 27 was first aired on cable's Comedy Central and then on Paramount+.
Comedy Central will re-air the premiere episode on July 30, following the delay of the second episode. The internet reacted strongly to Parker and Stone's comedic mockery of Trump in the premiere episode, making headlines and trending on social media platforms.
As of now, the exact time that new episodes will premiere on Paramount+ has not been announced. Fans eagerly await further details about the upcoming episodes and the continuation of the series' satirical take on current events.
