Season Premiere of “South Park” To Simulcast On MTV/MTV2 Proving This Will Be An Event For The Ages
Comedy Central today announced that MTV and MTV2 will simulcast a one-hour pandemic special event of the Emmy® and Peabody® Award-winning series South Park, which marks the first time ever South Park has been simulcast across ViacomCBS brands. The one hour-long supersized episode titled “The Pandemic Special” premieres tonight, Wednesday, September 30 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT. Comedy Central will have two encore airings at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT and 10:00 p.m. ET/PT.
In the hour-long South Park special, Randy comes to terms with his role in the COVID-19 outbreak as the ongoing pandemic presents continued challenges to the citizens of South Park. The kids happily head back to school but nothing resembles the normal that they once knew; not their teachers, not their homeroom, not even Eric Cartman.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
