Overview

• Paramount+ has removed all 26 seasons of South Park from its platform worldwide, leaving only nine specials available.
• Season 27 is set to debut on Comedy Central on July 23 after a two-week delay caused by stalled licensing negotiations tied to the merger.
• Trey Parker and Matt Stone have denounced corporate interference in the rights talks, labeling the merger a “shitshow” and threatening legal action against Jeff Shell and Skydance interests.
• Global fans have taken to social media to express outrage and many have vowed to cancel their Paramount+ subscriptions over the blackout.
• A Paramount+ representative said the series was pulled because its streaming rights window expired and the company is continuing negotiations to restore access.
