White House lashes out at 'South Park' over spoof of Donald Trump in bed seducing Satan: 'Desperate attempt'
A White House spokesperson has responded to the season 27 premiere in a statement to EW. One day after hitting back at The View over Joy Behar's claim that Donald Trump was jealous of Barack Obama's looks, the White House has again taken aim at a Hollywood institution in a statement to Entertainment Weekly criticizing South Park's satirical depiction of the president seducing Satan in bed. The show's delayed season 27 premiere — which was pushed back and ultimately moved from Comedy Central to Paramount+ amid parent company Paramount's pending merger with Skydance — included several scenes that showed a fictionalized version of Trump with a small penis. He later makes his way to a bedroom at the White House, where he undresses and gets into bed with Satan, who remarks on the size of the animated Trump's genitals. "The left's hypocrisy truly has no end — for years they have come after South Park for what they labeled as 'offense' content, but suddenly they are praising the show," White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers tells EW via email, adding that "just like the creators of South Park, the left has no authentic or original content" to premiere. "This show hasn't been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention," the statement continues. "President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country's history — and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump's hot streak." EW has reached out to representatives for Paramount for a response. The season 27 premiere of South Park started with Trump engaged in a meeting with a satirical depiction of the prime minister of Canada. Then, after the meeting, Trump passes by an artist painting his portrait, with the president stopping to yell at them for giving him a small penis in the image. "What the f--- is this?" the fictionalized version of Trump asks. "Why is my dick so small?" The artist replies, "That's the size it is in the photo," which prompts his removal from the White House. The cartoon iteration of Trump then enters his bedroom, where he undresses, revealing that his genitals are the same size as in the painting, and then attempts to seduce Satan in bed. South Park's season 27 premiere came after a delay that led co-creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone to release a statement criticizing the Skydance merge in which they alleged that "it's f---ing up South Park." Paramount announced Wednesday that the South Park production had reached a deal with Paramount+ to license the classic animated show, including putting all previous 26 seasons and forthcoming first-run episodes on the streaming service instead of Comedy Central. The announcement came shortly after CBS network announced that the Trump-critical The Late Show With Stephen Colbert would end in May 2026, which provoked many late-night hosts to rally around Colbert and offer their support amid observations that the Federal Communications Commission needs to approve the Paramount/Skydance merger. South Park is now streaming on Paramount+. Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly

‘South Park' creators reveal battle with network over wild Trump depiction, joke they're ‘terribly sorry'
'South Park' creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone discussed their controversial season 27 premiere at San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday, revealing a behind-the-scenes battle with network executives over airing a less-than-flattering depiction of President Donald Trump's penis during Wednesday's episode. The duo behind the long-running Comedy Central series spoke alongside a panel of other adult cartoon creators at the event, including 'Beavis and Butt-Head' creator, Mike Judge, and 'Digman!' co-creator, Andy Samberg. When asked if they had been following the reaction to their season 27 premiere by the panel's moderator, Josh Horowitz, Parker jokingly replied, 'We're terribly sorry.' As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, that's about as far as the creators went in responding to the controversy stirred by the episode, although Stone did address Trump more directly later in the discussion when the duo were asked about how they originally met. 'For me and Trey, we met over 'Monty Python,'' he said. 'In this day, when PBS is getting their funding cut, that's how I found 'Monty Python.'' Stone's comments on PBS come on the heels of a congressional vote last week to cut funding for public broadcasting. Trump signed the $9 billion spending cuts package into law on Thursday. 'South Park' creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone revealed they went toe-to-toe with network executives before airing their controversial season 27 premiere at San Diego Comic-Con. Getty Images According to Parker, the show's team finalized the season's premiere episode just shortly before it aired. 'Just three days ago, we were going, 'I don't know if people are going to like this,'' Parker said, adding that the duo were reading news headlines and said to each other, 'Let's put that in there.' Horowitz questioned the 'South Park' creators about whether there were any concerns about the season premiere from higher-ups at Comedy Central, with Parker detailing a discussion with the network about showing Trump's penis on the show. The creators of the long-running Comedy Central series detailed how the executives wanted Trump's penis blurred, as the duo told them, 'No, you're not gonna blur the penis.' REUTERS 'They were like, 'We're gonna blur the penis,' and we're like, 'No, you're not gonna blur the penis,'' Parker responded, adding that the show's team agreed to add eyes to the depiction of the president's penis to make it a character. The White House, however, did not seem thrilled about the season 27 premiere of 'South Park.' White House Assistant Press Secretary Taylor Rogers issued a statement regarding Wednesday's episode to Fox News Digital on Thursday. 'The Left's hypocrisy truly has no end — for years, they have come after South Park for what they labeled as 'offense' [sic] content, but suddenly they are praising the show,' Rogers stated. 'Just like the creators of South Park, the Left has no authentic or original content, which is why their popularity continues to hit record lows. This show hasn't been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention. President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country's history — and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump's hot streak.'
