After taking a year off in 2024 (partly to avoid the election cycle, as creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone have said), South Park has returned. The series is making its comeback just in time to skewer every ridiculous thing currently happening in the world.
Despite The White House’s claims that the show “hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years” (lol), Parker and Stone recently reached a new $1.5 billion streaming deal with Paramount. With the premiere of Season 27’s first episode mere days after the deal was inked, the animated comedy has already been making waves on social media.
If you’re hoping to get in on the fun through full episodes instead of clips on Twitter/X and Bluesky, here’s how you can watch new South Park episodes online.
How to Stream South Park Season 27 Online
South Park Season 27
1
The new season of South Park is airing live on Comedy Central at 10pm ET/PT every Wednesday. New episodes will stream exclusively on Paramount+ the day after they air.
Paramount+ recently rebranded its own streaming subscriptions, with the ad-supported Paramount+ Essential plan starting at $7.99 and Paramount+ Premium (which still includes Showtime) starting at $12.99, ad-free. Both plans offer a seven-day free trial, so I won’t blame you if you wait to binge the whole season.
If you want to watch the new season live, Comedy Central is available through live TV subscriptions like Hulu + Live TV. Assuming there won’t be any doubled-up episodes, here’s the full schedule for Season 27:
- Episode 1: “Sermon on the Mount” – July 23
- Episode 2 – July 30
- Episode 3 – August 6
- Episode 4 – August 13
- Episode 5 – August 20
- Episode 6 – August 27
- Episode 7 – September 3
- Episode 8 – September 10
- Episode 9 – September 17
- Episode 10 – September 24
The first episode of Season 27 premiered on July 23, after Paramount delayed it by two weeks from its original release date. Matt Stone and Trey Parker certainly had some complaints about the delay, which happened in part because of Paramount’s merger with Skydance.
The new deal with Paramount gives the streaming service the rights to South Park for the next five years, including 50 new episodes, meaning you won’t have to wait too long to see more from Cartman and the gang.
How to Catch Up on Previous Seasons
Aside from Paramount+, which will be the home for all future seasons, all 26 previous seasons of South Park are streaming on HBO Max. Individual episodes and seasons are also available to purchase through Prime Video, but if you’re that dedicated, I’d try and get your hands on one of the many DVDs and box sets you know for sure no one can ever take away from you.
