‘South Park’ Has Been Removed From Streaming in the UK

INTERNATIONAL (OUTSIDE UNITED STATES), JUL 12 – Paramount+ lost international rights to South Park amid legal disputes and a merger, delaying Season 27's July 23 premiere and affecting all 26 seasons globally, sources said.

  • Paramount+ removed all 26 seasons of South Park from its platform internationally due to an expired streaming license amid ongoing rights negotiations.
  • This removal follows the recent expiration of South Park’s $500 million exclusive HBO Max streaming deal that ended in June 2025.
  • The show’s creators, Parker and Stone, publicly expressed frustration about the Paramount Global and Skydance merger, blaming it for disrupting negotiations and delaying Season 27’s premiere.
  • Paramount Global co-CEO Chris McCarthy pledged that South Park would return to Paramount+ in the U.S. starting July 2025, while Season 27’s premiere was postponed from July 9 to July 23.
  • Negotiations continue under legal pressure from Parker and Stone amid uncertainty if or when South Park will fully resume streaming on Paramount+ beyond select specials.
