What is South Park’s post-Covid episode?

According to its plot synopsis, South Park: Post COVID explores the future of Kyle, Cartman, Kenny, and Stan in a time after the pandemic officially ends.

The special is one hour in length and hops forty years into the future, showing the adult versions of South Park’s beloved characters.

In the future version of South Park, meat no longer gets consumed. Driverless cars are the norm, and Amazon’s Alexa is a realistic robot.

“It’s the boys dealing with a post-COVID world,” said Trey Parker, a co-creator of the show.

“They’re just trying to get back to normal. So it’s like our show. We’re just trying to get back to normal.”

South Park: Post COVID is the follow-up to South Park: The Pandemic Special (2020) and South ParQ: Vaccination Special (2021).

How can I watch South Park’s post-Covid episode?

South Park: Post COVID premiered on Paramount+ at 3am ET on Thanksgiving Day.

The film is only available over the streaming service, which recently signed a deal with South Park Studios.

Viacom CBS, the owner of Paramount+, is working with South Park Studios to create 14 new South Park original features released on Paramount+, as well as multiple new seasons of the main South Park series.

Paramount+ does offer a one-month free trial, so fans of the show can test the waters of the service before purchasing a full subscription.

For $5.99 per month or $59.99 per year, Paramount+ is available with limited commercials.

For $9.99 per month or $99.99 annually, Paramount+ is available with no commercials.

“We’re trying to make what’s on Paramount+ different from anywhere else, so hourlong made-for-TV movies is where our head is at,” said Matt Stone, fellow co-creator of South Park.

“We’ll do two made-for-TV movies every year. They will be big, but they are not quite movie scale.”

What is South Park?

South Park premiered its first episode on August 13, 1997. The animated show was originally created for Comedy Central, and focuses on a group of four boys and their antics.

Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, Eric Cartman, and Kenny McCormick are the main characters.

The show is known for its take on current events, politics, and pop culture.

With crude humor and massive amounts of satire, South Park isn’t for everyone and has earned itself a bit of a reputation over the years.

South Park has earned five Primetime Emmy Awards and a Peabody Award, and is often featured as one of the greatest shows of all time.

The show takes place in Colorado, in a fictional town of the same name, located within the South Park basin in the Rocky Mountains.

A disclaimer appears at the beginning of each episode, stating: “All characters and events in this show—even those based on real people—are entirely fictional.

“All celebrity voices are impersonated…..poorly. The following program contains coarse language and due to its content it should not be viewed by anyone.”

There are over 20 seasons of the show, with many more planned for the future.
