South Park Fans Threaten to Cancel Paramount+ After The Show Was Removed

Fans of the popular show South Park are considering cancelling their subscriptions to Paramount+ after the platform removed all episodes from its library, a move that follows a significant licensing dispute between Paramount and creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Previously, it was expected that South Park’s streaming library would transfer from HBO Max to Paramount+ due to an impending expiration of their deal with Warner Bros., but recent weeks have brought unexpected challenges in this transition, especially as Paramount prepares to merge with Skydance.

As an observer, I’ve noticed a buzzing commotion among South Park fans when the series shifted to Paramount+, with whispers that certain episodes might be off-limits despite being available elsewhere. However, the narrative took an unexpected turn when Paramount+ decided to pull all South Park episodes from its platform. Now, as fans grapple with this decision, they’re seriously considering cancelling their Paramount+ subscription and seeking out the episodes elsewhere.

South Park Fans Are Angry at Paramount+

Following the removal of “South Park” from Paramount+, only its exclusive specials remain on the platform. Unfortunately, individual episodes of the TV series are not available. This decision has sparked strong reactions among fans online, with one Reddit user, Acceptable-Bid-1019, expressing frustration by saying, “How does one go about setting paramount on fire?” Another user, emale27, stated, “This is 100% wtf. I’m canceling my subscription now…” User jaywinner also shared similar sentiments, stating, “The only reason I had Paramount+ was to watch South Park. I just canceled.

User Commercial-Paper-355 has confirmed that the South Park episodes have been taken off the air in Australia, stating, “AUS here. We’ve been watching South Park on Paramount for years now, but yes, it’s been removed for us too. I’m really upset because we don’t have HBO over here, so I guess I’ll be buying some DVD sets!” Users such as BlueMew92 have expressed their disappointment with this change more forcefully, stating, “Well, looks like my subscription to Paramount is now useless. Great job.” However, at present, the streaming library for South Park remains accessible on HBO Max, depending on your location. If it’s not available in your region, then you may want to explore purchasing official home media releases instead.

South Park Season 27 Has Been Delayed

Originally slated to debut on Comedy Central this month, Season 27 of South Park has encountered an unexpected last-minute delay, now set to premiere on July 23rd instead. The creators of the series, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, have expressed their frustration over the hold-up, attributing it to the turbulent merger between Paramount and Skydance, stating, “This merger is a mess and it’s causing problems for South Park. We are hard at work on new episodes, and we hope the fans get to see them somehow.” The availability of these new episodes on streaming platforms remains uncertain.

In response to the concerns of South Park fans over the issues they’ve been encountering on Paramount+, Paramount themselves have clarified the reason for the episode removals. They explained that the series has reached the end of the period in which they hold the rights to stream it on Paramount+, causing it to be taken down from the platform. If fans wish to terminate their Paramount+ subscription and forgo any promotional benefits tied to their account, they are asked to confirm the email address associated with the account they intend to close. Upon receiving this information, Paramount will respond with confirmation that the subscription has been cancelled.
