The current and upcoming seasons (27 and 28) of South Park will each have five episodes. While creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker recently signed a deal with Paramount for 50 new episodes over five years, it now appears these will be spread across ten shorter seasons instead of the originally anticipated five longer ones.

The show’s recent storyline – involving a romance between Trump and Satan, their offspring, and an affair with Vice-President J.D. Vance – has led to its highest ratings in 25 years. You can watch the season finale on Comedy Central at 10 p.m., or starting December 11th on Paramount+.
