South Park Closes Season 28 With Christmas Finale to Its Two-Season Political Arc

A Christmas-themed capstone wraps the show's two-season political arc.

Overview

  • The finale, titled “The Crap Out,” aired Dec. 10 on Comedy Central and is now streaming on Paramount+.
  • It is the show’s final new episode of 2025 and its first Christmas special in six years.
  • The episode caps a through-line that satirized the Trump administration via a Trump–Satan relationship and an anticipated Antichrist storyline.
  • Promos and scenes depict Trump as Santa with JD Vance as an elf, and the episode brings back fan favorites like Towelie and the Woodland Creatures.
  • Comedy Central confirms Seasons 27 and 28 were designed as five-episode runs, and the White House criticized the series earlier this year without issuing a new comment on the finale.
