South Park Returns Tonight With ‘Conflict of Interest’ After Last-Second Delay

Matt Stone says the one-week slip was a production miss rather than censorship.

Overview

  • Episode 5, titled “Conflict of Interest,” is scheduled for 10 p.m. ET on Comedy Central, with next‑day streaming on Paramount+.
  • The logline says Kyle and Cartman clash when a prediction‑markets app spreads at school, and newly released teaser images feature President Donald Trump and Satan.
  • Stone told The Denver Post that “no one pulled the episode” and that the postponement happened because they “didn’t get it done on time.”
  • Comedy Central previously pulled the season’s Charlie Kirk parody from cable reruns after his Sept. 10 killing, though it remains available on Paramount+ and CC On Demand.
  • It has not been publicly confirmed whether tonight’s broadcast is the same episode delayed on Sept. 17, and the season continues its bi‑weekly rollout with dates set through Dec. 10.
