Next 'South Park' Special Fattens Up In 'The End Of Obesity'; Watch Trailer

  Where in the world is season 27 of South Park ? The public certainly doesn’t know. If the trades do, they’re not saying. But somehow, the next Paramount+ special is coming anyway, specifically next week. The streamer has announced “The End of Obesity” will take South Park on an Ozempic tale when it premieres May 24 in the United States and Canada, and May 25 in Australia, Latin America, Brazil, France, Italy, Germany, Switzerland and Austria. It’s somewhat better advance notice than what the previous special “ (Not Suitable For Children) ” received, as while it had “print” ads on websites and its trailer ran on YouTube , it wasn’t officially released and properly uploaded until the day of its December 20 release. The description tells that new weight loss drugs have entered the culture of South Park, to massive impact. When Cartman is denied access to the life-changing medicine, Kyle, Stan, Butters and Kenny jump into action on his order. Cartman gazes at himself in the mirror, lam

Paramount+ Brings A Light Menu To New York Comic-Con

 

Paramount+ has announced their plans for New York Comic-Con, being held from October 12-15, bringing never-before-seen content, first-look reveals, an immersive themed booth experience, and advance screenings. However, whether due to studios not entertaining negotiations with their striking writers and actors or it just not being San Diego, it's a very light offering of programming this year.

In addition, Paramount+ will debut its first-ever “Peak Screaming” event at the Javits Center on Saturday, October 14, inviting goers to step into an immersive celebration of the Halloween season, inspired by the service’s popular horror offerings with refreshments, dancing and spooky enchantments. Paramount+ also will mark its return to the convention floor with an interactive booth space, Booth #1723, which will include exclusive photo opportunities and more. 

In honor of all things evil, Evil's panel will be held appropriately on Friday the 13th, celebrating the upcoming fourth season. Fans will get to see a sneak peek from it with a screening of a fan-favorite episode and a trivia contest entirely about the show, with winnable merch prizes. It will be from 4:30 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. ET in room 405.

This year, amongst the Star Trek universe, Lower Decks is coming alone. There will be an advance screening of one of the three episodes of the current fourth season that will remain by the time the convention happens, with exciting reveals and surprises promised for the panel, happening Saturday, October 14, 1:45 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. ET on the Empire Stage.

Much like we saw with SDCC, it's very likely that those on these panels will be directors and executive producers. It's why the only other discovered Nickelodeon presence thus far is "Water, Earth, Fire, Air: Continuing the Avatar Legacy". This is a panel also happening Saturday October 14 but in Room 406.1 from 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM, where the network brings Abrams Books, Dark Horse Comics, and Magpie Games's creators and writers of their Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra products, such as Mike Maihack, to explore the world because the actors can't.

"Hold the Sauce! Good Burger is Back!" is all about Good Burger 2, with never before seen footage and artwork from the upcoming film. It's happening Sunday, October 15, 12:30 p.m. - 1:30 p.m. ET on the Main Stage. However, in addition to the panel, a detailed recreation of the famed restaurant will be set up, outfitted with props and signage from the new movie's set, including the Good Shake machine, tables and tabletop elements, sauce bottles and more. Smash as many burgers as possible with other players before time runs out in the original game Good Burger Smash, approved by Ed himself. Fans can take pictures at the restaurant too, inside a virtual milkshake machine and in front of a giant burger. This panel was also held at SDCC, but had its panelists pared down once the strike began.
