The Conglomerate of the Paramount Media announced Wednesday afternoon that the creators of “South Park” had agreed to produce 50 new episodes in the next five years in an agreement evaluated at $ 1.5 billion.
Ten hours later, the creators of “South Park” Matt Stone and Trey Parker exposed Paramount – and aggressively embarked on President Donald Trump – in the first episode of the 27th season of the Central Show comedy.
In the episode, Trump (expressed by Stone) continues the city of South Park for $ 5 billion after challenging the presence of Jesus Christ in their primary school. City dwellers are ready to retaliate, but Jesus Christ (also expressed by Stone) urges them to settle.
“You saw what happened to CBS? Yeah, well, guess who has CBS? Paramount,” said Jesus Christ during the apogee of the episode. “Do you want to find yourself like Colbert?”
Paramount is under a meticulous examination for having appeared in Kowtow to the Trump administration before a successful successful merger. Stone and Parker clearly laughed over the hectic summer of their business parents.
On July 2, Paramount agreed to pay $ 16 million to settle a legal action by Trump, which alleged that the “60 minutes” of CBS had slightly published an interview with former vice-president Kamala Harris. CBS denied this complaint.
On July 17, CBS announced that it was planning to cancel “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” in May, calling the move “purely a financial decision”. But many Colbert fans cried a fault, arguing that the actor was penalized during his years of anti-Trump humor.
The two developments came while Paramount is preparing to be sold in Skydance Media, an entertainment and funding production company led by David Ellison, the son of Oracle Mogul (and Trump Ally) Larry Ellison. The link between the company requires federal approval.
The first episode, entitled “Sermon on the” mountain “, targeted other satirical targets, including the supposed death of” awareness “, the rise of Chatgpt and the debate on Christian teachings in public schools. Trump and Paramount were the focal points, however.
In a scene, “60 minutes” reports to social disorders that turn South Park in the middle of Trump’s trial. The fictitious hosts of The News Show are visibly nervous because they present the segment, doing everything possible to rent the president as “a great man”.
“We know he is probably looking at,” said one of the hosts.
CBS is not the only network to achieve legal regulations with Trump. ABC agreed to pay $ 15 million as part of a regulation with Trump a month before taking office, ending a case concerning alleged defamation.
The Paramount with Trump rules, however, attracted the attention more. Colbert, three days before CBS announced the end of his program, denounced the arrangement as a “big bribe”. Jon Stewart, the host of the “The Daily Show” by Comedy Central, also assaulted the agreement.
Paramount has CBS, a venerable Hollywood cinema studio, a series of cable brands (including Comedy Central) and the Paramount +streaming platform.
“South Park” is widely known for politicians and social trends through the ideological spectrum. But Trump’s representation by the last episode is undoubtedly further than usual.
Stone and Parker describe Trump as a petuting child, recycling the style of animation they used for the Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein in the 1999 film “South Park: Bigger, Long & Uncut”. They also make profane references to the president’s anatomy.
“Sermon on the” Mont “ends with a video apparently generated by the AI of wandering Trump in a desert and removing his clothes.
Paramount spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comments on the episode.
