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

Posted by on

 


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, lamenting his girth while his friends run lab experiments fully dressed in the wear, preparing him to take the drugs. Check out the poster below.

With this being the seventh Paramount+ special, it’s somewhat clear that they have no set landing points, though this one happens to be the equivalent week before part 1 of “The Streaming Wars” was released in 2022. The first pair was released late in the year, though tighter than last year’s were, as “Joining the Panderverse” was a late October release as opposed to the late November “Post-COVID” release. What’s different this year is the regular season is relatively overdue. Both seasons ran from February to March on Comedy Central, which season 27 has obviously missed. Some believe they’re just running out the clock until the backlog comes home to Paramount+ from Max, who knows what state Paramount as a whole will be in. The show is streaming on Paramount+ in many countries but the domestic contract with Max is set to expire within the year. Watch the trailer below.
