“South Park” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone had a simple response to the furor the often-controversial show stoked this week with an episode showing President Trump in bed with Satan and making fun of what they depicted as the president’s small genitals.
“We’re terribly sorry,” Parker said Thursday, holding a deadpan stare as the crowd laughed during a panel at Comedy Central’s Comic-Con.
The “South Park” season premiere drew a response from the White House, which said in a statement to The Guardian that the show “hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention.”
“President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country’s history — and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump’s hot streak,” spokesperson Taylor Rogers told the paper.
The premiere of the show’s 27th season also skewered Paramount over its recent decision to settle a lawsuit brought by Trump for $16 million. Paramount received approval Thursday from Trump’s Federal Communications Commission for an $8 billion merger agreement with Skydance.
The “South Park” episode that provoked the White House’s ire aired just days after Parker and Stone reached their own deal with Paramount for the rights to “South Park,” reported by Variety as valued more than $1 billion.

I stopped watching it years ago when they decided to substitute gross for funny.
‘ I stopped watching it years ago when they decided to substitute gross for funny.’
The very first episode had a satellite dish coming out of cartman’s ass to summon the aliens.
Yeah, but that was funny.
Does Kenny get killed?
I remember watching that and not believing what I was seeing.
I laughed so hard.
The Jesus vs Santa Claus video Christmas Card did that for me when it came out before the actual series.
I watched the entire episode on twitter. I dont recall kenny getting killed.
However, if one likes the Mr Hankey stuff there is a talking..ahem...something in the Trump PSA. You can also find that clip on twitter.
Free speech is allowed. And so is south park being dead to me. It wasca good run.
It’s a ham fisted attempt to say “see, we skewer everyone”. But that’s the thing, they don’t. They never did anything like this with Biden, Harris or Obongo. And Biden was non stop easy pickings.
“There goes John F Kennedy, caroling with his son” (in Hell)
They skewer everyone. Especially Babs.
the good thing is they make fun of EVERYONE!!!

The irony is that a major theme of this episode was avoiding Trump’s lawsuits. Let’s see what happens lmao. South Park is going for the meta art. Kind of brilliant performance art to see if he proves their point LMAO 😂

But they didn't mock Biden/Obama (maybe they were afraid).
they didn’t need to- biden made a mockery of himself...
Same here, same with Gutfeld. Sorry pals not funny just disgusts me.

also Mr. Garrison’s plan to rally is a reference to former United States president Donald Trump who is currently running for president again in 2024 and began holding rallies in March 2023. Several other political references are made throughout the episode include:
The line “Joe and the Hoe have got to go” is a meme aimed at Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, alluding to accusations of Harris using sexual favors to advance her career in politics and formerly working as an escort, based on her relationship with former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown.[4][5][6][7]
Well,I cut the cord a few years ago so at least I’m not helping to subsidize this.
Yes,in the early years there were some very entertaining episodes. But I lost interest about 20 years ago.
