Right now is the time to watch South Park season 25, which is airing in the place we wish all South Park did: Comedy Central. Yes, unlike the Post-Covid special events, the next adventures of Stan, Kyle, Kenny and Cartman do not require a Paramount Plus subscription.
The South Park season 25 premiere episode "Pajama Day" debuts today (Wednesday, Feb. 2) on Comedy Central.
• Time — 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT / 1 a.m. GMT
• Free trials in the U.S. — Watch via Sling or Fubo.TV
• Watch anywhere — try ExpressVPN 100% risk free
And that means that, at least in some ways, South Park will no longer be dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic — at least not as it did in the boys' mission to end the pandemic with time travel and Stan's dad's weed.
South Park season 25 kicks off this evening with a familiar situation: the fourth graders at South Park elementary have gone too far with their disrespect for Mr. Garrison. Yes (if you forgot), Garrison is teaching the class again after returning in the South ParQ Vaccination Special.
And as a punishment? The entire fourth grade can't wear their pajamas to school on Pajama Day. This is likely to start a feud with the kids and PC Principal.

It's unclear where episodes will go after their initial airing, but we suspect HBO Max (which has the first 24 seasons) will be its eventual home.
Fubo.TV: A more-complete streaming service for getting Comedy Central and a range of other networks, Fubo has all of the right network channels and many more cable channels some don't want to go without. It's got a 7-day free trial so you don't need to pay up front.
Looking for more free content? We're tired of paying for new subscription services too. Our guide to the best free movies on YouTube has some top-shelf films, too.
In other TV news, wow the The Book of Boba Fett episode 6 ending was a doozy, the Bel-Air trailer is wild (Fresh Prince by way of The O.C. and Gossip Girl) and NCIS season 19 is bringing back an old cast member.
Looking for something else to watch? Since the Winter Olympics live streams are here, we thought you might want to watch Cool Runnings online. Trying to figure out who the next Wolverine is? Well, a beefcake photo of Taron Egerton is reminding folks of MCU Wolverine casting rumors (which he shot down).

The previous 23 seasons are on Prime Video UK, while Netflix UK's South Park library currently only has six seasons.
