Predicting what will happen in a South Park episode is hard, but anticipating when a new installment will stream might be even tougher.
The hit satirical series had its season 27 premiere date pushed by two weeks and then announced its second installment would drop two weeks after the first. Since then, it's become customary for new episodes to air every other week.
While we don't have additional details on what the next South Park will entail, another aspect of the show is more definitive: its new streaming home. With the signing of a deal in July, 50 new South Park episodes and the show's back catalog will be on Comedy Central and Paramount Plus. Forthcoming episodes of season 27 will stream on Paramount Plus in the US the day after airing on Comedy Central. The show is no longer available on HBO Max as of early August.
If you want to watch the 27th season of the show co-created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, here's what to know.
