The show previously teased that, in keeping with Trump regime priorities, South Park will be patriotically renamed “South America.”
In the Season 29 premiere, “South American Biker Gangs,” e-bikes arrive in South America, the boys (Cartman, Kenny, Stan and Kyle) take over the streets, and the bewildered parents of South America can hardly recognize South America! Check out a first look below.

South Park, which will be celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2027, debuted on Comedy Central on August 13, 1997. Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny were first seen in the animated short The Spirit of Christmas, and from there were launched into television history.
South Park is about four boys living in one screwed-up Colorado mountain town. Between local and global tragedies, as well as parental and celebrity interference, Kyle, Stan, Cartman, and Kenny manage to have themselves a time.
South Park continues to be celebrated three decades after its debut, winning its sixth Primetime Emmy for “Outstanding Animated Program” in 2026. The show was included in the 2026 Television Academy Honors as their first-ever animated honoree, as the Producers Guild Awards’ (PGA) first animated show to be included in Best Episodic Comedy, and has also received awards and accolades from the American Film Institute (AFI), the Peabody Awards and the Critics Choice Association.
In addition, South Park was the # 1 show on cable in 2025 among P18-49, including the return of S27 delivering the best average P18-49 share in 27 years and most watched season in six years.
Co-creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone are executive producers, along with Anne Garefino and Frank C. Agnone II. Eric Stough, Adrien Beard, Bruce Howell and Vernon Chatman are producers. Christopher Brion is the Creative Director of South Park Digital Studios.
