Mxdwn has previously reported that due to the ongoing ‘streaming wars’, as South Park would call it, all episodes of the series have been removed from Paramount+ amid the ongoing Paramount-Skydance merger. Paramount+ released a statement to its subscribers informing them that the license they had for the show had come to an end. Although fans should be happy to know that all of the movies under the banner of the franchise are still available on the streaming platform. Mxdwn also reported that after a slight delay, the new season 27 of South Park is set to premiere on July 23, pending further delays.
