Show begins 27th season covering Trump’s lawsuit against Paramount and cancellation of Stephen Colbert’s show, depicting Trump in bed with Satan

South Park has kicked off its 27th season with a blistering episode taking aim at Donald Trump and its newly minted parent company, Paramount, just one day after signing a $1.5bn deal with the network.

The premiere episode, “Sermon on the Mount,” sees Trump in bed with series regular Satan and covers topics including Trump’s lawsuit against Paramount, the cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, wokeness, Trump’s attacks on Canada and more.

Unlike other characters, Trump is depicted as an actual photo of the US president on an animated body. There is also an extended scene featuring a hyper-realistic, deepfake video of Trump, completely naked, walking in a desert. There are repeated suggestions that Trump’s genitalia are small.

So this was absolutely incredible. Anyone else seen it?

This is the power of being on the air for 28 years, expecting to get cancelled since the start, and not caring if they do anymore. They can embrace risky content.

Given CBS cancelled their top show, and is owned by Paramount, maybe this is the last show season that will finally set them free 😂

I think they're begging them to get canceled. As if to prove to everyone still in disbelief that freedom of speech is dead under Trump. Which they'll probably succed in, should they get canceled.

At this point they may be the first liberals disappeared to the gulags.

They just got renewed for 5 years for $1.5 Billion, so I am thinking that either paramount can kiss the sale of their business good bye or kiss a lot of money good bye after settling with Trump then again with the creators of South Park.

Edit fixed some spelling.
