South Park Trump Episode: Guide to Season 27 Parodies

South Park returned in July 2025 with a season that didn’t pull punches. Nearly 6 million viewers tuned in to the premiere, marking the show’s strongest opening in more than a decade.

Premiere Viewers: almost 6 million · Season Length: 10 episodes · Season Premiere: July 23, 2025 · Streaming: Paramount+

What episode of South Park is Trump in?

All of them. Season 27 features Trump as a recurring character from the July 23 premiere through the September 24 finale. According to Wikipedia, “Season 27 features a caricature of Trump as a major character throughout every episode.” That’s a notable shift from the creators’ September 2024 statement that they would delay the season until 2025 specifically to avoid parodying the 2024 presidential election.

Sermon on the ‘Mount (Season 27 Episode 1)

The season premiere introduced Trump’s ongoing storyline, which the show frames around a relationship with Satan. The episode marked the first traditional South Park episode released in more than two years, per Wikipedia. That return generated nearly 6 million viewers — a number that represented the show’s strongest performance in over a decade and broke its own viewership record that had stood for 26 years. The premiere also mocked CBS alongside the Trump material, establishing the satirical tone for the season.

The implication: Parker and Stone reversed course on their stated avoidance strategy almost immediately. After years of steering clear of Trump in post-2016 episodes, they committed fully to the parody format that built the show’s reputation.

Other Trump parodies

Beyond the premiere, episode 2 (“Got A Nut”) and episode 3 aired on consecutive weeks in August 2025. Episode 3 specifically targeted Trump’s second administration, with White House scenes featuring Tim Cook presenting Trump with a customized glass sculpture featuring a 24-karat gold base before Apple announced its $100 billion U.S. investment, per YouTube. The same episode showed the Trump administration accepting a Boeing jet valued at $400 million from Qatar to be used as Air Force One.

Episode 4 (“W is Dead”) aired September 4, followed by episode 5 (“Conflict Interest”) on September 25. Episode 6 aired October 16 on Comedy Central UK, one day after its U.S. debut. Episodes 7 through 10 remain largely undocumented in public sources.

What is season 27 episode 2 of South Park about?

“Got A Nut” aired August 7, 2025, and centers on Mr. Mackey losing his job. The episode also continues the season’s Trump-era parody elements, fitting into the broader satirical framework Parker and Stone established from the premiere onward. The episode is available for streaming on Paramount+ shortly after its television broadcast, per Radio Times.

Where to watch

Paramount+ holds the streaming rights to the full South Park library — all 316 episodes — following the new five-year deal with Parker and Stone. Episodes typically become available on the platform shortly after their Comedy Central broadcast. Paramount+ can also be accessed as an add-on channel through Amazon Prime Video. A brief licensing issue in July 2025 temporarily removed the entire catalog outside the U.S., but the issue was resolved and episodes were restored.

What this means: If you’re in the U.S., Paramount+ is your one-stop destination. International viewers should verify availability through their regional Paramount+ service, keeping in mind the brief July 2025 outage that affected non-U.S. subscribers.
