‘South Park’ to Return in 2025; Creators Are Skipping Election ‘on Purpose,’ Avoiding Trump Jokes and Also ‘Waiting for Paramount to Figure Their S— Out’
Trey Parker and Matt Stone are relieved not to air new "South Park" episodes during the 2024 presidential election because Trump jokes are tired.
“ South Park ” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone revealed in a new interview with Vanity Fair that their long-running animated series will not return until 2025, which means “South Park” will be skipping the 2024 presidential election between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. The duo said the delay is somewhat “on purpose” because they no longer have an interest in lampooning Trump on the show, but Parker added that they’re also “waiting for Paramount to figure all their shit out.” Neither creator specified on what Parker meant about Paramount, but the studio has been going through a proposed sale over the last several months.
