A new episode of *South Park* is coming out soon after a last-minute delay last week. We’re getting a first look now ahead of the premiere. This season has been challenging for the show; the initial release of Season 27 was pushed back due to a disagreement between Paramount and the show’s creators regarding streaming rights, and episodes have been airing every other week. Just when a new episode was scheduled to air last week, it was delayed again.
The latest episode of *South Park*, Season 27 Episode 5, was originally meant to air on September 17th, but it’s now premiering tonight, September 24th. It will air on Comedy Central at 10 PM Eastern Time and will be available to stream on Paramount+ tomorrow. A preview of the episode reveals a new rivalry between Kyle and Cartman, sparked by a popular new app spreading through their school. See a sneak peek at the episode with the images below.
How to Watch South Park Season 27 Episode 5

The next episode of *South Park*, titled “Conflict of Interest,” will air on Comedy Central Wednesday, September 24th at 10 PM Eastern Time. The episode focuses on a disagreement between Kyle and Cartman, sparked by a popular new prediction markets app at their school. This marks a change of pace for the season, as it’s the first episode to feature both characters in the same storyline after they’ve been mostly separated in previous episodes. Fans will likely welcome this return to a classic dynamic and hope it continues in future episodes.
When the latest *South Park* episode was delayed, creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker explained to Paramount that they simply ran out of time. They took responsibility, saying they work very close to the deadline and sometimes things don’t get finished. They thanked Comedy Central and fans for their patience and promised the episode would air the following week. In an interview with The Denver Post, Stone clarified that the delay wasn’t due to censorship or anyone pulling the episode; they just hadn’t completed it in time, which sometimes happens when you procrastinate.
South Park Season 27’s New Episode Schedule Revealed
Assuming there aren’t any unexpected setbacks, Comedy Central has announced the remaining release dates for episodes of *South Park* Season 27. Here’s the schedule:
- Episode 5 – September 24th
- Episode 6 – October 15th
- Episode 7 – October 29th
- Episode 8 – November 12th
- Episode 9 – November 26th
- Episode 10 – December 10th
The new season will have ten episodes, which is great news for fans – recent seasons have been shorter due to simultaneous releases with Paramount+ specials. Episode 5 is already on track according to the schedule, and we’re hoping the rest of the episodes arrive as planned in the coming weeks.
