‘South Park’ to Finally Deliver the Antichrist in New Episode

The Antichrist is coming — to South Park, that is — when the series returns for what may be its season 28 finale with a brand new episode Wednesday night.

The episode, titled “The Crap Out,” looks to blend the show’s signature irreverence with a dark holiday twist. If the latest season mirrors season 27, this will be the final episode of the five-episode 28th season.

This week’s visit to the Colorado mountain town may be brief, as the logline for the episode is very Stan-centric. Given that this is the season finale, the logic of everything we know about television suggests the episode will feature a birth. But what will happen as Trump has started a clandestine affair with his vice president, J.D. Vance, while Satan gets closer to the due date for their baby together — the Antichrist?

As of this update, President Trump has still not responded to his depiction on the show as a philandering, conniving, vice-president-bedding figure.

“Satan’s due, Stan’s praying, and only a Christmas miracle can deliver the Antichrist on time,” the episode logline provided by Comedy Central reads, signaling another boundary-pushing installment from creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone.

South Park’s Wednesday night episode continues the ratings-smashing 28th season. The show originally debuted on Comedy Central in 1997. Additional new episodes of the latest season aired on Oct. 29, Nov. 12, Nov. 26 and Dec. 10, according to Comedy Central.

Following its linear debut, the episode will be available to stream on Paramount+ and On Demand through participating TV providers.

South Park Returns to Roast Peter Thiel, Set Up Cartman vs. Antichrist

South Park returned Wednesday after a three-week hiatus and left us with the terrifying prospect of Eric Cartman being the only human to save us from the Antichrist.

For reasons unexplained, the episode is listed as season 28, episode one — not the sixth episode of the 27th season. Perhaps it’s a contract issue with Paramount and South Park Studios, but it doesn’t seem to have much to do with the plot, which carries on where it left off.

This week at South Park Elementary, the “6-7” meme is in full force and driving the parents and teachers mad. For the uninitiated, under-14s have been saying “6-7” when they don’t know the answer, as a fill-in phrase, or for reasons they and we will never know. The genesis of the meme comes from the song “Doot Doot,” by rapper Skrilla in December 2024, and for some reason, it just took off. Eventually, obsession over the joke drives Cartman to puke incessantly. Or is he possessed?

Meanwhile, tech guru Peter Thiel enters the story, plotting with J.D. Vance to thwart the birth of the Antichrist, i.e., Donald Trump and Satan’s baby. Thiel gets Trump to head to Planned Parenthood to try to sneakily ask a doctor to perform an abortion on Satan, but it is rebuffed by the doctor, who tells him that he’ll need someone with expertise on the Antichrist. Enter Thiel, who marches into South Park Elementary and lays down the law with the faculty about the possible cult the kids are obsessed over.

Back at the A-story, Cartman is at the doctor’s office, too, undergoing a full-body scan to determine the cause of his health crisis. But the puke keeps coming and it appears they will need to seek outside help.

Thiel, having commandeered the school’s security system, downloads all student data and begins to observe and report. Cameras across the school are watching the kids, as the staff is seeking to find more leads on what is going on with this “6-7” business.

Also added into the jam-packed episode is a plotline with Jesus trying to reconcile with modern Christianity and going on a double date with PC Principal; his date is a piece of work named Peggy Rockbottom. It doesn’t go well. Back at school, Thiel dubs Jesus a “Nosey Nancy” when he protests the surveillance and is quickly removed by PC Principal; in the gym, he laments the state of affairs with the sporty school leader, who asks him, point-blank, if he is gay.

Trump gags continue throughout the episode: if his sphincter isn’t on full display at Planned Parenthood, he is in bed with Satan, but rebuffed and masturbating… with chopsticks.

The plot thickens as Vance and Thiel’s partnership is revealed as a scheme to obtain all of the world’s data. But he must sort out this Antichrist business, so Thiel heads to the Cartman residence in a sharp homage to The Exorcist. Oh, and he got there in an Uber. It took him around six or seven minutes. After he spends time with Cartman, Thiel concludes that he may be the only hope we have to stop the Antichrist.

“We have to unlock the secrets he holds, no matter what it takes,” he declares. Uh-oh.

Back at the Cheesecake Factory, Jesus is back on a double date with Peggy Rockbottom and PC Principal, but just can’t take it, and the warped sense of Christianity that seems to have taken hold across America.

“You need to bully people and you’re using the Bible to do it, ” he tells PC Principal, as he tries to kick his ass. Jesus then heads out into the suburban sprawl and contemplates life on earth in 2025. He then turns around, walks into “the Factory,” stares down PC Principal and pulls Ms. Rockbottom out of her chair and back to his place. He’s going full bro.

The two-parter should conclude in two weeks.

Wednesday night’s episode is the sixth of the ratings-smashing 27th season of South Park, which debuted on Comedy Central in 1997. Additional new episodes of the latest season will air on Oct. 29, Nov. 12, Nov. 26 and Dec. 10, according to Comedy Central.

On South Park, Donald Trump Is Desperate to Exorcise the Antichrist

*Warning: This article contains spoilers*

Donald Trump is a father-to-be, and no one is happy about it. Not the president himself, not his vice president, JD Vance, and certainly not billionaire tech mogul and conservative activist, Peter Thiel. On the week’s episode of South Park, three of the most powerful men in America are dead set on finding a way to get rid of the Antichrist growing inside of Satan.

After PC Principal mistakes the children’s obsession with the “6 7” meme for satanic numerology, he invites Thiel to speak at the school. Thiel, who touts himself as the ultimate authority on biblical prophecy and the coming of the Antichrist, makes a few of his own innocuous references to “6 7,” only to be met with laughter from the students. Convinced that South Park Elementary has embraced the forces of darkness, he seizes all of the school’s private data to monitor the children’s behavior. (Thiel co-founded the government intelligence and software company Palantir.)

Of all the students, Cartman is most tickled by the meme, quite literally vomiting every time someone mentions it. Thiel, however, believes Cartman is possessed and stages an exorcism. When that fails, Thiel decides to take Cartman with him back to Washington, DC, telling Ms. Cartman, “Your son is the key to saving our country. Everything we hold dear could end. We have to unlock the secrets he holds, no matter what it takes.”

Along the way, Thiel stays in contact with Vance, who has a vested interest in the situation since Satan’s baby threatens his own path to the White House. (In turn, Vance promises Thiel “full access to everyone’s data” if he can put a stop to the demonic child.) Meanwhile, knowing that Trump himself no longer wants the baby — albeit for reasons mostly related to his tee times — Vance convinces him to visit an abortion clinic, where Trump promptly drops his trousers, only to be informed that’s not how the procedure works.

There is also a B-storyline involving Jesus going on a blind date at the Cheesecake Factory and eventually coming to blows with PC Principal after simmering tension over their clashing religious styles. But for the most part, this week’s South Park seemed to be setting the stage for episodes to coming later on in Season 27.

Following its premiere on Comedy Central, Season 27, Episode 6 of South Park — “”Twisted Christian” — will be available to stream on Hulu beginning Thursday, October 16th.

‘South Park’ Takes On Peter Thiel’s Antichrist Obsession

South Park returned from another two-week break on Wednesday with some fresh jabs at Donald Trump and Peter Thiel.

During the Season 27 episode ‘Twisted Christian‘, Theil visits the children of South Park to preach against the “satanic numerology shit” going on at the school, as the kids share inside jokes about the numbers six and seven (an actual phenomena taking over schools recently).

“I’m Peter Thiel and I know about the anti-Christ,” he declares in the assembly after his own theme song states the same intro, a nod to the tech billionaire’s recent lectures on armageddon and the possible identity of the antichrist.

According to Thiel’s South Park lecture, the end of the world will happen in six to seven days, as predicted by Revelation 6:7. His obsession with the numbers results in Thiel turning South Park into a surveillance state and commandeering all the students’ data to compile a list of cultists.

“Wait why is there a camera in the girls bathroom?” asks Jesus, to which Thiel declares: “To stop the anti-Christ!”

Meanwhile, Cartman has the most aggressive reaction to the numbers, going full Linda Blair with projectile vomit. This draws Thiel to his door for an Exorcist homage as he is determined to get to the bottom of the numbers’ meaning and how Cartman is supposed to stop the antichrist.

Thiel remains in contact with JD Vance, who is determined to stop Satan from birthing Trump’s demonic spawn, as the POTUS visits Planned Parenthood to try and take matters into his own hands.

Unfortunately, the doctor is unable to help give Satan an abortion, so they instead recommend Trump reach out to Thiel, expert on the antichrist.

Turning its premiere-delayed 10 episode Season 27 into a mega season, South Park airs on Comedy Central at 10 pm ET Wednesdays, and the next day on Paramount+. Unless Parker and Stone hit the wall again this year and run out of time to get an episode on the air, South Park‘s remaining Season 27 shows will land on Oct. 29, Nov. 12, 26 and Dec. 10 respectively.
