There's still no trailer at the time of writing, but "South Park" season 27 episode 6 finally has a title ahead of its belated premiere this Wednesday, October 15: "Twisted Christian". The logline, reading "Cartman is possessed and may be the key to stopping the Antichrist", suggests the episode may have been inspired by Peter Thiel.
Here's how to watch "South Park" season 27 online from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for free.
"South Park" season 27 episode 6 premieres on Wednesday, October 15 at 10 p.m. ET/PT in the U.S..
• WATCH FREE — 10Play (Australia)
• U.S. — Comedy Central via Sling, Fubo or Hulu with Live TV
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk free
Thiel, who co-founded PayPal and Palantir, was a key early supporter of SpaceX and Facebook, and is now one of the Trump administration's wealthiest and most influential backers, has hosted several off-the-record lectures of late, in which he reportedly drew parallels between the Antichrist and critics of AI, and warned that the world will be plunged into Armageddon if AI is regulated.
Thiel also raised eyebrows in June, with his appearance on the "Interesting Times with Ross Douthat" podcast. Asked if he "would prefer the human race to endure" instead of being wiped out by AI, he hesitated at length, eventually, and only after Douthat had made his discomfort with Thiel's indecision abundantly clear, answering in the affirmative.
While its takedowns of the president have dominated the headlines, "South Park" has also taken a stand against AI and Trump's primary enablers — the billionaire class that counts Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and Tim Cook as some of its members. It saw Randy Marsh turn to the now-ubiquitous ChatGPT for (terrible) advice, and consequently lose everything.
With the new season on course to break viewership records, Trey Parker and Matt Stone have earned the license to take as much time as they need to transform current affairs into these masterpieces, so Paramount has confirmed that the fallow weeks will be standard.
