Comedy CentralSouth Park's season 27 rollout has been hectic, with premiere-date delays and incomplete streaming information. As of today, July 24, the hit animated series has a new streaming home.
According to a report from Deadline, five upcoming seasons and the show's back catalog will be on Comedy Central and Paramount Plus with the signing of a new deal. Forthcoming episodes of South Park season 27 will stream on Paramount Plus in the US the day after airing on Comedy Central. South Park will return to Paramount Plus internationally and won't continue to stream on HBO Max.
The premiere episode is on Paramount Plus now. As for what else the new season will entail, we have the above trailer for reference -- which starts sort of like a horror movie trailer before fires are unleashed, the Statue of Liberty is dismantled and disastrous plane collisions occur. If you want to watch the 27th season of the show co-created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, here's what to know.
South Park season 27 release date and streaming details
South Park season 27 premiered on Comedy Central on Wednesday, July 23, at 10 p.m. ET/10 p.m. PT. The first episode is streaming now on Paramount Plus.
Season 27 episodes will hit Paramount Plus in the US the day after they air on Comedy Central, according to Deadline. If you don't want to wait that long to watch without cable, you might want to consider a live TV streaming service like Philo, Sling or YouTube TV. More on that below.
Paramount Plus has two plans: Paramount Plus Essential and Paramount Plus Premium, which used to be called Paramount Plus with Showtime. Essential costs $8 per month and includes ads and a sampling of Showtime programming. Premium removes ads and unlocks more Showtime titles, among other perks.
Philo is a live TV streaming service that provides more than 70 channels, including Comedy Central. A subscription costs $28 per month and also includes access to AMC Plus content. Rivals like YouTube TV come with more channels but Philo could be a good fit for you if you like its smaller selection for a lower price.
Sling is between Philo and YouTube TV in price. Sling's Orange plan costs $46 per month and its Blue plan costs between $46 and $51, depending on where you live. Sling Blue and Orange both include Comedy Central and you can compare the rest of their channel lineups here.
