After South Park’s wildly unpredictable leap from season 27 to 28, we find ourselves hurtling toward the show’s annual holiday extravaganza — a tradition as inevitable as Mercury doing its cosmic dance in retrograde this December. Titled “The Crap Out,” this Antichrist-themed finale lands on Comedy Central the night of December 10 at 10 p.m. PT/ET. Perfect timing, right? Because if the stars have taught us anything, it’s that chaos and hilarity are written in the cosmic script this season. For those cutting the cord — because who hasn’t at this point? — there’s good news: you can stream the episode live on just about any service that carries Comedy Central, from DirecTV to Philo, Fubo, Sling, and Hulu + Live TV. Plus, if you’re keen to binge the entire collection of South Park episodes (all 28 seasons!), they’re now snugly nestled on Paramount+, replacing the old HBO Max hangout for U.S. viewers and beyond. Oh, and here’s a juicy little tidbit: with free trials and holiday deals abound, catching all the outrageous antics coming your way this season won’t even cost you a dime. So, will this fiery finale live up to the Capricorn season’s stubborn resolve or bring a little Sagittarius mischief to the screen? Only one way to find out.
