South Park will not air the planned fifth episode of its current season Wednesday night, postponing it until next Wednesday, Sept. 24, Comedy Central has announced. It was going to be the first episode of the show since the assassination of Charlie Kirk, who was parodied in the season’s second episode last month.
“Apparently when you do everything at the last minute sometimes you don’t get it done,” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone said in a statement. “This one’s on us. We didn’t get it done in time. Thanks to Comedy Central and South Park fans for being so understanding. Tune in next week!”
This is a developing story.
