Something strange is going on at Comedy Central HQ.

South Park creators Trey Stone and Matt Parker issued a rare statement on Wednesday, just hours before the latest episode of their headline-making 27th season was supposed to air, saying the new episode wouldn’t make it to screens because they “didn’t get it done in time.”

“Apparently when you do everything at the last minute sometimes you don’t get it done. This one’s on us. Thanks to Comedy Central and South Park fans for being so understanding. Tune in next week,” the duo wrote.

It’s particularly questionable given the anticipation surrounding the upcoming fifth episode, which would’ve been the first to go to air since Charlie Kirk’s assassination in Utah last week.

The move also kicked off a turbulent day in US television, with veteran late night host Jimmy Kimmel having his show pulled “indefinitely” on the ABC network over recent comments he made about Kirk’s death.

In what’s been labelled an “attack on free speech”, Jimmy Kimmel Live! has been sensationally stalled after the host peddled a conspiracy that Kirk’s alleged assassin Tyler Robinson was a member of the “MAGA gang”.

“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterise this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” Kimmel said in his monologue Monday.

The latest season of South Park has spurred significant controversy, with the notoriously-unrestrained show going after US President Donald Trump and MAGA culture like it never has before, with Kirk himself mocked in an episode just weeks before he was killed at a university in the US state.

The surprise axing has sent shockwaves through Hollywood and has been slammed on social media as an “attack on free speech,” with actor Ben Stiller tweeting simply: “This isn’t right.”

The shock decision also comes two months after US President Donald Trump had publicly declared Kimmel would be the “next” talk show host to have their show cancelled.

Premiering on August 6, the episode titled “Got a Nut” showed main character Eric Cartman embody Kirk’s mannerisms, style and haircut, becoming a “master debater” who tours universities to challenge progressives.

The depiction mirrored Kirk’s polarising reputation as a viral influencer who frequently engages in heated disputes peddling his progressive values, which have over the years seen him condemn “woke” culture, speak out against critical race theory, gender identity and climate change.

While Kirk’s feature was actually quite a mild depiction by South Park’s ruthless standards, Mr Trump has copped a brutal portrayal in the new season, which showed the President involved in a romantic relationship with Satan. The latest episode saw Satan fall pregnant with Mr Trump’s baby.

South Park, which has been airing new episodes biweekly since its July 23 premiere, is expected to have a delayed return next Wednesday, September 24.

Further reports indicate South Park will take an extended break before airing its sixth episode on October 15, with the remaining four episodes dropping biweekly until December 10.

Stone and Parker are yet to comment on Kirk’s death, though the “Got A Nut” episode has been yanked from repeat viewing on Comedy Central. It remains available to stream on Paramount+.

Despite coming off as a joke in the long-running satire, Kirk laughed off his portrayal in one of his last media interviews with Fox News Digital, describing his characterisation in the show as a “badge of honour”.
>>
“I think it’s kind of funny and it kind of goes to show the cultural impact and the resonance that our movement has been able to achieve,” Kirk told Fox News Digital in July ahead of the episode airing.

“They’re professional comedians. They’re probably gonna roast me, and I think that’s fine, and that’s what it’s all about, being in public life and, you know, making a difference, and I’m gonna have a good spirit about it. I’ll watch it. I’m going to laugh at it.

“From a religious standpoint, we’re all sinners. We all fall short of the glory of God.

“Like from a more practical life standpoint, we’re all broken people. Stop taking yourself so seriously. That’s probably one of the problems that we’ve had in our politics is that people can’t take a joke.”

Utah local Tyler Robinson, 22, has since been arrested over Kirk’s shooting, charged with aggravated murder.

Parker & stone will simply not mention ol' Kacky getting it in the neck.
But Saddam Trump is still fair game. That nasty 1st Amendment just keeps on denying you cultists of the right to deny Trey & Matt of their right to satirize your orange lover of Satan.
>>
>>1438727
A nut is just not worth it if you are going to get assassinated by a member of your own cult.
>>
The joke is that Trump is fucking Satan and impregnated him with a butt baby.
>>
I think it was a good move to skip a week. You don’t want your show to get the Jimmy Kimmel treatment next just because of some poorly thought out nono joke that can get you charged for treason by the Court of Public Opinion and make you lose your day jobs. South Park has been extremely lucky so far especially now let’s not start losing this one over something so stupid in the dumb dumb era where people get fired left and right for somebody else’s actions.
>>
Trump & rightards hate Jimmy Kimmel because he spoke the Truth.
Can't have it both ways.

Remember when they were saying they liked the last several episodes for making fun of them? Dont tell me that was just a lie

Human beings who aren't you, >>1439191 . And >>1438962 & >>1439022 do impress others by proving that OP's & your opinions are wrong.
Facts & pointing out such do tend to have the effect of proving that the opinions of liars are always more than wrong.

...or you can admit that in reality the worse than sinner that is God doesn't exist. Choose wisely. *Tips Trilby*
The Gang Of Pedophiles? Donald 'Pedo' Trump? Rightards that commit thoughtcrime? Chuckie Kack committing thoughtcrime instead of being a hyper-tolerant atheist who would still be alive to this day if he hadn't been a judgemental - with the emphasis on mental - funda-mental-ist rightard? I can judge. (*Loads large iron ore-bearing rocks into railgun*)

Where does the article say MAGA censored south park?
>>
>>1438962
I think a lot post news posts on this board are intentionally titled like clickbait or misleading, like that one anon who always includes "petulant pedophile" or "retarded nepobaby" in the subject field. I don't understand why they do this.
>>
>>1439262
OP is spinning with his lies. He should have applied to be a writer for South Park, applying himself. But then, you cannot spell applied and applying without the words Lied and Lying, which is what the OP's good at. And >>1438727 & >>1439262 should get a room, lying together just as Saddam Trump does with Satan in South Park.

Right there.
>>1439285
I understand that South Park makes you seethe eternally now since they started suggesting Trump was fucking Satan, and the ratings went back to 1999 levels, but that's no reason to wish ill on the writers.
>>
>>1439281
petulant pedophile = Trump
retarded nepobaby = RFK Jr.
No I'm not him but he calls them that because it's true.

Their inability to put out the show in time is not censorship

I'm not even the Anon who made the thread. I just think it's hilarious how you people have become woke right thought police.

I'm sure Brendan Carr of Project 2025 being FCC chair and making regulatory threats to every media corporation if they don't put pressure on all their writers and hosts had nothing to do with it at all.

Combined with MAGA blaming South Park for Charlie Kirk's death:

I think Kimmel is one of the most unfunny and annoying late night talkshow hosts, possibly of all time, but ngl he did hit the nail on the head here. Credit where it's due.

Parker & Stone replacing Saddam Insane with the similar dictator Trump is extremely funny, and anything they can do to make that orange retard look bad can only be a good thing.
Do you agree with how Trump is portrayed in South Park? I do.

As satire and making fun of leaders is an alien concept to Russians, certainly with the retarded thing ruining... I mean 'running' Russia, compared to those who live in a country where satire - from National Lampoon & Mad magazines to Saturday Night Live & South Park - is not only ingrained in the culture of sane people who don't take themselves too seriously, and question & poke fun at leaders but is enshrined in the 1st Amendment of the US Constitution, when it comes to the likes of >>1439262 >>1439220 >>1439289 >>1439301 >>1439371 understanding satire, I can understand why this thing doesn't.

I don't need to guess that you don't like what Parker & Stone are doing to Trump using satire. I like how they're portraying Trump in South Park. Do you, yes or no?
>>
>>1439529
It's just a side plot. Trump hasn't been the point of any of the episodes he appears in. It's obvious you haven't watched any of the new episodes or you would know that.
>>
>>1439535
>Trump hasn't been the point of any of the episodes he appears in
...but he's still satirized or rightards wouldn't whine about how Trump's portrayed in that show. Certainly how Trump reacted to that
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1tcgjY6ZUk
GW Bush was satirized in South Park. But do you know what? He ignored what was done to him. He took it on the chin like a man.
Seems it's not just the orange snowflake that doesn't possess the armored skin GW Bush has

Maybe that's the point. Trump likes center stage and gets big butthurt if attention goes elsewhere. Except when he is hiding his pedophilia habit.

You have the free speech to support Trump and cheer him in his rallies. You do not have the free speech to say whatever you want about the president. You are not allowed to threat the president and making fun of him is a threat. Even if 1st Amendment protects that speech it applies to regular citizens and not entertainers like Kimmel or South Bark.
