‘South Park’ Will Target ‘Stupid Billionaires’ And Data Centers In New Episode
Butters takes on billionaires building data centers near home as Season 29 continues its South America rebrand and airs on Comedy Central at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
- The latest South Park episode, titled "Billionaire Weenietown," aired yesterday on Comedy Central, featuring character Butters battling billionaire-backed data centers invading his neighborhood.
- Creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone renamed Season 29 to South America earlier this month as a comedic jab at Trump's location-renaming policies, including Lake Ontario to Lake America and New Mexico to New America.
- Butters, struggling with constant power outages preventing him from watching Pimple Popper, decries the "billionaire weenies" consuming local resources and leaving residents with nothing.
- The episode satirizes the real-world proliferation of AI-related data centers, a pressing concern in Hollywood where unions and workers worry about job displacement and technology's impact on the industry.
- South Park follows an every-other-week schedule, with the next installment scheduled for Oct 14. Viewers can stream on demand via Paramount or watch live through Philo and DirecTV Stream.
