South Park's Unpredictable Season Jump: What Just Happened?

If you felt like Season 27 of South Park flew by, you're not alone! After a three-week break, fans were ready for the next installment of Season 27, but instead, Comedy Central dropped a bombshell: we've officially moved into Season 28! A spokesperson for the network confirmed that the short-lived Season 27 ended after just five episodes, rather than the anticipated ten. The reasons behind this abrupt change haven't been shared, but co-creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker are known for their "fast and loose" approach to episode structures and release schedules.

Good news, though: even with the season switch, insiders say we'll still get a total of ten new episodes this year, split across the two seasons. So, while the season numbering is a bit of a head-scratcher, the laughs keep coming!

The "Twisted Christian" Premiere: An Episode for the Ages

The first episode of Season 28, titled "Twisted Christian," premiered on Wednesday, October 15, and it wasted no time jumping into the show's signature brand of cutting-edge satire. It’s got everything: viral internet trends, political figures, religious commentary, and, of course, some truly shocking moments involving Donald Trump.

Decoding the "6-7" TikTok Trend: An Internet Inside Joke Unleashed

At the heart of the new episode is the "6-7" TikTok trend, and if you're over the age of, say, 14, you might be scratching your head. This seemingly nonsensical phrase, pronounced "six seven," comes from the rap single "Doot Doot (6 7)" by artist Skrilla. It blew up on TikTok, especially with Gen Alpha users, often accompanied by a specific hand gesture popularized by a user known as "The 67 Kid."

The real "meaning" of "6-7"? There isn't one! It's an internet inside joke, a viral phenomenon primarily used by younger generations to amuse each other and, hilariously, to frustrate and "troll" older generations and authority figures who don't understand it. South Park perfectly captures this generational divide, with the elementary school kids gleefully chanting "6-7" to the utter bewilderment of the adults.

Peter Thiel's Antichrist Hunt: Tech, Religion, and Surveillance

Enter Peter Thiel. Yes, that Peter Thiel, the Palantir co-founder and venture capitalist. In "Twisted Christian," he's brought in by PC Principal (now "Power Christian" Principal after his politically motivated conversion) as an "absolute expert on the end of days and the coming of the Antichrist." Thiel is convinced the "6-7" craze is tied to "satanic numerology" and the impending arrival of the Antichrist.

Thiel's theory is... well, it's peak South Park. He explains that Satan couldn't have a child until Donald Trump came along, whose "teeny-teeny-tiny" penis (estimated at "six and seven centimeters") is the perfect size to fit in Satan's "pinhole" sized rectum, thus creating the Antichrist "butt baby." And, naturally, all of this is foretold in Revelation 6:7.

Desperate to uncover the Antichrist, Thiel takes his surveillance efforts to an extreme, setting up an AI face detection program linked to school security cameras, watching students' every move – even in the girls' bathroom (a detail Jesus Christ, the new school counselor, rightly questions).

Peter Thiel (in "Twisted Christian"): "Hello, kids, I'm Peter Thiel, and I'm here to talk to you about the Antichrist. OK, so first, what is the Antichrist? The Antichrist is a newer, more human form of Satan that will soon walk the Earth. We don't know how soon it will walk the Earth, but it could be within the next six to seven weeks."

This storyline draws from Thiel's real-world persona; he recently made headlines for private lectures where he reportedly called Greta Thunberg and AI critics "legionnaires of the Antichrist." The show's caricature of him is as "vicious" as you'd expect, depicting him with a "sunken skeletal visage with bulging bug eyes."

Donald Trump's Offensive Shenanigans and JD Vance's Secret Plot

Donald Trump remains central to the season's overarching narrative. While Satan is pregnant with his "butt baby" Antichrist, Trump is seen engaging in some truly gratuitous acts, including attempting to masturbate with tweezers in the Oval Office, only to be interrupted by a scheming JD Vance. Vance, depicted as a tiny, baby-faced figure, is secretly trying to stop the Antichrist's birth so he can replace Trump. He even convinces Trump to seek an abortion for Satan's baby, leading to a "zero censorship" scene at a Planned Parenthood clinic.

The episode also brings back Towelie, held captive in the Oval Office bathroom, as Trump's "c--rag," further pushing the boundaries of the show's "explicit and outrageous" humor.

Cartman's Demonic Possession: The Key to Stopping the Apocalypse?

Meanwhile, back in South Park, Eric Cartman's obsession with the "6-7" meme escalates into a full-blown case of demonic possession, complete with projectile vomiting à la "The Exorcist." Thiel believes Cartman might be the "key to stopping the apocalypse" and whisks him away to D.C. for an exorcism, setting up a likely confrontation with Trump.

Even Jesus Christ, the school's new guidance counselor, has a role, experiencing a crisis of faith after witnessing the "MAGA Christians'" warped sense of Christianity. He confronts PC Principal and Thiel, stating, "You and a lot of other people seem to have a very warped sense of what Christianity is... I think the most important thing still has to be loving and respecting each other."

South Park's Production Quirks and Upcoming Episodes

The show is famous for its tight, last-minute production schedule, which sometimes leads to delays. Co-creator Matt Stone previously explained that episodes are sometimes pushed back simply because "we just didn't get it done," not due to censorship. This explains the unusual cadence of Season 27, which had bi-weekly installments and a three-week gap before its "abrupt finale."

The total of ten new episodes for the year will be split between the five for Season 27 and the five planned for Season 28. Here’s when you can catch the remaining new episodes:

• Episode 2 (S28): October 29
• Episode 3 (S28): November 12
• Episode 4 (S28): November 26
• Episode 5 (S28): December 10

New episodes will premiere on Comedy Central and then be available to stream on Paramount+ the following day. For those on the West Coast, Philo often offers streaming three hours earlier on premiere nights.

Despite the unusual season change-up, South Park continues its legacy of biting satire, tackling current events, political figures, and internet culture with its signature explicit and outrageous humor. Fans can look forward to a wild conclusion to this "legitimately epic story" unfolding over Season 28.
