South Park: Post COVID: The Return of COVID is coming to Paramount+, continuing the saga of South Park: Post COVID. It's been two years, but creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone are back in business! Paramount+ had just released the new teaser and photos begging the question: "Can Stan, Kyle and Cartman just work together, go back in time and make sure COVID never happened?" There is only one way to find out!
Paramount+ took to Twitter to share the news of the special, captioning the news with: "The Exclusive Event Continues. SOUTH PARK: POST COVID: THE RETURN OF COVID premieres Dec 16, exclusively on #ParamountPlus https://bit.ly/SouthParkReturnOf… Use Promo Code SOUTHPARK for a 1 month free trial."
People can't wait for the next South Park installment from Paramount+! Edward says: "I am so excited for this new Covid special"
Donuteater took a break from nibbling those delectable confections to say: "Oh man, just over a week away. Loved the last one, so hopefully this will be at least as good as that."
Jack Gates has no words.
South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone signed a $900 million deal with ViacomCBS for 14 Paramount+ projects, and their signature series is set to run to at least season 30. "With Viacom, we realized we could make them as long or as short as we needed,” Parker says of the projects. “And they then went and called them movies. They are the ones who said we are giving them 14 movies in seven years. All I can say is for me, personally, I am 52 years old, I have made three movies in my life. So you do the math.”

Matt Stone goes further, saying, “We’re trying to make what’s on Paramount+ different from anywhere else, so hourlong made-for-TV movies is where our head is at. We’ll do two made-for-TV movies every year. They will be big, but they are not quite movie scale.”
“We have been waiting to get canceled for 30 years,” Stone says, speaking of their perennial controversy. “It changes who is involved with it. But we have been dealing with this sh-t the whole time we have been making the show. And we can’t complain. Things have been going fine for us. It gives us fodder and gives us something to talk about.”
When asked about future South Park storylines, Matt Stone explains: “We’re at where a lot of people are at, which is the future kind of sucks. We would like to get back to where each week we can do something totally different. We tried to experiment with serialization. That had mixed results. And the past five or six years have been dominated by Trump, being political and the tonal change of society. And then the pandemic. We don’t want everything to be about the pandemic, but that is what is going on.”
