Overview

  • Season 27 of 'South Park' will premiere on Comedy Central on July 9, 2025, marking the show's return after a two-year break.
  • The deliberate hiatus avoided covering the 2024 U.S. presidential election, as creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone expressed creative fatigue with political satire, particularly around Donald Trump.
  • The teaser trailer highlights the show's signature irreverent humor, featuring references to wildfires, plane crashes, and Diddy flying through space in an orange jumpsuit resembling prison attire.
  • Fan-favorite Randy Marsh is seen advocating ketamine use and planning to 'mess around with the government,' while the trailer also nods to cultural moments like the Statue of Liberty being toppled.
  • The creators have committed to continuing the series through 2027, with a deal ensuring its longevity as a cultural touchstone in satire.
