'South Park' Season 27: How to Watch the Premiere Without Cable

Kenny, Kyle, Stan and Cartman are about to return.
Comedy Central
South Park's season 27 rollout has been hectic. The hit animated series has had its premiere date pushed and lacked definitive streaming details caused by behind-the-scenes ongoings. As of today, July 23, the show is hours away from its Comedy Central debut, and the US streaming method is becoming clear.
According to a report from Deadline, a deal is being completed that would bring South Park to Paramount Plus in the US. The global licensing deal would reportedly be exclusive (sorry, current HBO Max viewers) and count five upcoming seasons and the show's back catalog. Not much else is known at this time for those interested in streaming it on Paramount Plus but we will update this article when there's more info.
As for what the new season will include, we have the above trailer for reference -- which starts sort of like a horror movie trailer before unleashing fires, dismantling the Statue of Liberty and disastrous plane collisions. If you want to watch the 27th season of the show co-created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, here's what to know.
South Park season 27 release date and streaming details
South Park season 27 will premiere on Comedy Central on Wednesday, July 23, at 10 p.m. ET/10 p.m. PT. That's the current date after it was delayed from July 9.
We'll share concrete Paramount Plus streaming details when they become available. Right now, a sure way to stream the series without cable is with a live TV streaming service like Philo, Sling or YouTube TV.
Philo Philo Carries Comedy Central
Philo is a live TV streaming service that provides more than 70 channels, including Comedy Central. A subscription costs $28 per month and also includes access to AMC Plus content. Rivals like YouTube TV come with more channels but Philo could be a good fit for you if you like its smaller selection for a lower price. See at Philo

10 best Hulu original movies to watch this summer

Hulu's status over the course of the past decade has changed several times. The streaming service, which is now owned by Disney, still has original movie releases, but it has never competed for Oscars in quite the way that a service like Netflix does. As a result, Hulu original movies can be a little bit of everything, although many of them are the kind of mid-budget movies that have been disappearing from theaters. While all of them are definitely not good, we've pulled together a list of 10 excellent ones that are worth watching this summer. Palm Springs (2020) One of the great pandemic watches of 2020 was Palm Springs, a Groundhog Day-style story that followed two people attending a wedding who find themselves trapped living the same day over and over again. Recommended Videos While time loop stories are nothing new, Palm Springs manages to inject some fresh life into the genre by trapping two people in this purgatory together as they slowly fall in love and deal with personal demons that predate the time they've shared together. Anchored by great performances from Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti, Palm Springs is still just as good today. You can watch Palm Springs on Hulu. Happiest Season (2020) A holiday romcom with some real bite, Happiest Season tells the story of two women in a committed relationship who visit one of their families for the holidays. When her partner learns that she is not out to her family, she's forced to pretend to be her friend through a deeply awkward weekend that leaves her questioning their entire relationship. Happiest Season is a fairly light comedy about bigotry, but it works because of Kristen Stewart and Mackenzie Davis's committed central performances and because it's got some festive holiday zest to it. You can watch Happiest Season on Hulu. Summer of Soul (2021) One of the great documentaries of the past decade, Summer of Soul tells the story of the Harlem Cultural Festival, a music festival that did not receive the attention of Woodstock but occurred during the same summer. Thanks to archival footage of many of the performers, as well as contemporary interviews with experts and some of the performers themselves, the film is deeply emotional and a reminder of the wealth of Black history that often goes unexplored in mainstream culture. You can watch Summer of Soul on Hulu. Fresh (2022) Fresh is silly, to be sure, but it knows what it is and is pretty effective at creating a tense, thrilling atmosphere. The movie follows a young woman who is struggling to find any datable men until she comes across a charming man who, it turns out, wants to slowly carve her up and eat her. Sebastian Stan and Daisy Edgar-Jones are both excellent and utterly committed here, and the movie also has some pretty heavy-handed things to say about misogyny and what men really value in the women around them. You can watch Fresh on Hulu. Prey (2022) This prequel to the original Predator executed what everyone had basically always wanted from this franchise. It tells the story of a Native American girl living in the 18th century who stumbles upon a predator and has to figure out how to defeat it. Amber Midthunder delivers a hugely compelling central performance. In director Dan Trachtenberg's hands, Prey becomes a movie much more about one woman's survival and self-actualization than it is about the larger mythology of this universe, and it's all the better for it. You can watch Prey on Hulu. Rye Lane (2023) A hugely colorful and charming romantic comedy, Rye Lane is told over the course of a single day and follows two single people who meet in London in the wake of bad breakups. As they slowly form a connection, they have to work through their baggage and figure out whether they're really interested in pursuing a serious relationship. Filled with actual jokes and riveting banter, Rye Lane would be nothing without the natural chemistry between its stars, David Jonsson and Vivian Oparah. You can watch Rye Lane on Hulu. No One Will Save You (2023) A sci-fi movie with a high-minded premise, No One Will Save You is an almost entirely wordless film that follows a young woman who lives alone as she begins to suspect that aliens are invading her home. As she works to battle them off, we learn more about how she came to be so isolated. Anchored by the remarkable Kaitlyn Dever, who conveys so much without saying a word, No One Will Save You is more than just its interesting premise. It's a genuinely exciting sci-fi movie that, thankfully, demands that you actually look at the screen while you watch it. You can watch No One Will Save You on Hulu. Predator: Killer of Killers (2025) A sort of pseudo-sequel to Prey, but animated this time, Predator: Killer of Killers is an anthology story that follows three different characters from Earth who all took on predators over the course of history. A Viking, a samurai, and a World War II fighter pilot all get their turns taking on the unkillable hunters. After they emerge victorious, the warriors are taken to the Predator homeworld, where they are forced to compete to see who is the ultimate killer of killers. Featuring stylish animation, innovative action sequences, and a breakneck pace, Predator: Killer of Killers is one of the best entries in the franchise. You can watch Predator: Killer of Killers on Hulu. Minding the Gap (2018) One of the best documentaries on Hulu, Minding the Gap follows the story of three friends who bond over skateboarding as they grow and change over the course of years. In that time, we come to appreciate the economic hardships facing each of them and the way skateboarding becomes less of an escape as the realities of their lives start to close in around them. Minding the Gap features some impressive skateboarding footage, but what really makes the movie stick are all the moments where you see someone trying to escape from the circumstances they were born into, with mixed results. You can watch Minding the Gap on Hulu. Fire Island (2022) A modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice, Fire Island offers a remarkable and humorous glimpse into the culture of gay travelers enjoying a summer vacation on the island. The film is vibrant and captures the complexity of gay culture. The romance at the movie's center is also deeply charming, anchored by writer and star Joel Kim Booster, who delivers a star-making turn at the center of this movie. Rarely has a retelling of Jane Austen felt as vibrant and modern as it does here. You can watch Fire Island on Hulu.

'Star Trek: Khan', an origin story for classic villain, returns George Takei as Sulu — watch the trailer

The first episode arrives this September, as announced during a San Diego Comic-Con panel. Star Trek: Khan, a new audio series chronicling the origin story for the classic villain, released its first trailer, confirming more returning Star Trek vets. The reveal came during Saturday's Star Trek Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2025, and the big casting confirmation was George Takei, who returns to the character of Sulu, which he originated on the original 1966 TV series. Tim Russ will also reprise his Star Trek: Voyager character, Ensign Tuvok. Releasing the first episode this Sept. 8 for Star Trek Day, Star Trek: Khan will explore "the untold events on Ceti Alpha V, chronicling Khan's descent from a superhuman visionary into the vengeful villain seen in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan," an official summary of the scripted podcast reads. New episodes will be available weekly every Monday through Nov. 3, wherever you get your podcasts. Naveen Andrews of Lost fame will voice Khan Noonien Singh himself. Wrenn Schmidt from For All Mankind was also previously announced as Lieutenant Marla McGivers. They are joined by Sonya Cassidy (Reacher) as Dr. Rosalind Lear, Olli Haaskivi (Oppenheimer) as Delmonda, Maury Sterling (Homeland) as Ivan, Mercy Malick (Mr. Mayor) as Ursula, and Zuri Washington (Life With Althaar) as Madot. Earlier in the Trek panel, Paramount+ released an early look at Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 4, which will feature a puppet-themed episode with the crew turning into Muppets. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan writer and director Nicholas Meyer wrote the story on which Star Trek: Khan is based. Kirsten Beyer and David Mack also serve as writers on the podcast.

Itch.io is the latest marketplace to crack down on adult games

Indie video game marketplace announced this week that it has 'deindexed' adult and not-safe-for-work games, removing them from its browse and search pages. The move, the company said, was in response to a campaign by Collective Shout (an advocacy group that has previously criticized video games, rap music, and lingerie commercials) targeting both and Steam for selling 'No Mercy,' a game that depicts rape and incest. In an open letter addressed to executives at PayPal, Mastercard, Visa, and other payment processors, Collective Shout said that games 'endorsing men's sexualised abuse and torture of women and girls fly in the face of efforts to address violence against women.' 'We do not see how facilitating payment transactions and deriving financial benefit from these violent and unethical games, is consistent with your corporate values and mission statements,' the organization added. The campaign appears to have worked, with Steam saying earlier this month that it would ban games that 'may violate the rules and standards set forth by Steam's payment processors and related card networks and banks, or internet network providers.' Similarly, said, 'To ensure that we can continue to operate and provide a marketplace for all developers, we must prioritize our relationship with our payment partners and take immediate steps towards compliance.' It also said that 'No Mercy' had been 'temporarily available on before being banned back in April,' and that 'the situation developed rapidly,' forcing the company to 'act urgently to protect the platform's core payment infrastructure,' without providing advanced notice to creators. The company said it's now conducting a 'comprehensive audit' to ensure that games available on the marketplace meet 'the requirements of our payment processors,' with adult content remaining deindexed until the audit is complete. After the audit, said NSFW game creators will be required to confirm that their content is allowed under the policies of their payment processors linked to their account. On social media, users criticizing decision noted that its current terms declare that adult content violations are 'permanent with no chance of appeal' and that any funds in an offending account 'will not be eligible for payout' — or as one developer put it, 'If you violate the rules, we take all your money. Not just the money from that work, ALL your money from EVERYTHING you've ever made.' This is far from the first time that payment companies appear to have pressured online platforms over adult content — for example, last year Gumroad pointed to restrictions from payment processors when it implemented stricter rules around NSFW art, and OnlyFans also blamed 'banking partners and payment providers' when it banned explicit content (a decision that it subsequently reversed). A petition with more than 137,000 verified signatures criticizes Mastercard and Visa for their role in these types of decisions. Among other things, the petition demands that the payment companies 'stop censoring legal fictional content that complies with the law and platform standards' and 'reject influence from activist groups that promote moral panic or misrepresent fiction as harm.'
