Show says things are “bad” now because of politics

‘South Park’ got meta on the October 31 Halloween episode, when Stan addressed some fans’ dissent by saying, ‘South Park’ sucks right now because of all this political shit,” referencing recent White House storylines. Of course, since this is “South Park,” his solution was to create South Park Sucks crypto and send Kyle’s cousin Kyle Schwartz to ask Trump for protection for this memecoin scheme.

This led to an intersecting plot in which Trump holds a séance, led by Attorney General Pam Bondi, to help himself get rid of a warded entity pursuing him in the White House – also known as his wife Melania. Also spotted walking the halls of the White House is FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, who appeared as a mummy after “losing his freedom of speech,” according to Stephen Miller, referring to an intentional injury Carr suffered in an earlier episode.

“South Park” arrived two days late this week to deliver a special Halloween edition. Friday night’s episode was called “The Woman in the Hat.”

The 2025 slate of “South Park” episodes has experienced several delays, date changes and even a sudden season 28 premiere. However, future episodes are expected to resume the bi-weekly release schedule, with dates set for November 12, November 26, and December 10.

Last week’s episode continued the story of Trump’s failing relationship with his pregnant partner, Satan. It also tackled the viral “6-7” TikTok trend, which enveloped South Park Elementary and sent Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel on a quest to find the Antichrist.
