South Park Streaming Specials to Premiere on Paramount+; Martin Stars Return to Host Soul Train Awards
Paramount+, the streaming service from ViacomCBS, and MTV Entertainment Studios announced two new original South Park exclusive events for Paramount+. The first, titled South Park: Post COVID, premieres Thursday, Nov. 25 and will also roll out on the service in the Nordics, Latin America, Australia and Canada. The second exclusive event will stream in December, the date to be announced. With these exclusive events, Kyle, Stan, Kenny and Cartman make their highly anticipated debut on Paramount+, adding to the service's growing roster of adult animated series. MTV Entertainment Studios' expansive deal with Parker and Stone includes extending South Park on Comedy Central through 2027 and taking cable's longest-running scripted series – August 13, 2022 marks the franchise's 25th anniversary – through an unprecedented 30th season. In addition to the series extension, the new deal includes 14 South Park original made-for-streaming events exclusively for Paramount+.
