The boys are back in town — and by the boys, we mean Stan, Kyle, Kenny, and Cartman. South Park is set to return for Season 27, and it appears our favorite Colorado crew is tackling the current state of affairs, albeit in their uniquely nonchalant way.
The beloved animated series released a new trailer to announce the upcoming season, cleverly tricking the audience into thinking it was a sneak peek at a new drama. The trailer's intense editing and ominous music set the stage... until Randy, Stan's dad, and his sister Shelley appear on-screen. Randy asks Shelley if she's been taking drugs, suggesting, "Because I think it could really help you," as they sit on her bed with a Wicked movie poster in the background.
The trailer then shifts back to intense action, hinting at several significant and topical events for the season, including multiple plane crashes, the toppling of the Statue of Liberty, a P. Diddy appearance, and yet another war with Canada. Longtime fans, or those familiar with the 1999 film South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut, won't be surprised by the latter.
The teaser confirms that Season 27 will premiere on July 9, 2025, on Comedy Central, marking over two years since the conclusion of Season 26. In the interim, the series has released three specials: 2023's South Park: Joining the Panderverse and South Park (Not Suitable For Children), followed by 2024's South Park: The End of Obesity.
South Park celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2022, having debuted on Comedy Central to near-instant acclaim back in 1997.
