The creators of `South Park ” Trey Parker and Matt Stone, Sidestep Trump and Paramount at the Panel Comic-Con
The creators of “South Park”, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, absolutely roasted their employer’s settlement with Donald Trump as well as the president himself during the first in season 27 of the show on Wednesday evening. But the appearance of the duo in San Diego Comic-Con Thursday, their first in almost a decade, was largely free from controversy or political discourse.
Parker and Stone appeared as part of the adult animation panel of Comedy Central, alongside the creator of “Beavis and Butthead”, Mike Judge and actor-comedian Andy Samberg. The panel took place the next day not only of the preparing season 27, but also the signature by the pair of a $ 1.5 billion streaming agreement with the owner of Comedy Central Paramount Global.
The panel launched with a joke referring to Trump’s anger reaction to the first of the season. “We are terribly sorry,” joked Parker when asked by the moderator of the Josh Horowitz panel on this subject shortly after Parker and Stone went on stage.
Later in the panel, Horowitz joked: “I have an assignment for you”, which prompted “I am ready” by Parker and light laughter in the public. And even later, when he was asked what fans could expect from the rest of season 27 of “South Park”, Matt Stone joked, “no politics”.
But if not, anyone who expects the creative team to be dismantled Paramount or Trump – or simply comments on the news on Thursday after a series of concessions (or what the criticisms maintain that the blatant attempts at favor), the Trump administration finally approved the paramount -sunset melting – probably left somewhat disappointed.
Despite this, in a relative rarity for a Thursday evening, Hall H was filled with fans in a normally seen in the major events of Saturday events like Marvel and Warner Bros. Although the fact that the two large superhero factories are seated this SDCC year could play as much a role as the continuous cultural relevance of Parker and Stone.
Most of the time, the panel was generally a hall room on the functioning of creators and what is to come from their projects. At one point, Parker gave an overview of Raw-Dog Way’s “South Park” episodes is produced, explaining: “We were at” South Park “this morning trying to understand what the show next week will be. ‘Snl.’ “”
“I mean, it seems that it is very stressful, the way, I don’t know what the episode is next week. It’s super stressful,” added Parker shortly after.
Meanwhile, if you have never seen it, the first in season 27 roasted not only paramount, but also the myriad of other institutions of other companies that have chosen to settle with Donald Trump rather than fighting his harassment and institutional abuses.
“Sermon on the Mount” literally represented Trump in bed with Satan, involved Trump pursuing the city of South Park and presented a parody of the biblical sermon of the title in which the version of Jesus Christ urged everyone to fear and obey Trump.
At the end, as a character explains, the city of South Park settles with Trump and agrees within the framework of the colony produced by pro -Trump pro bono content – that the show makes via the false PSA praising Trump’s greatness as a false version of the current president struggled through a desert, removing his clothes until it is naked. When the false penis of Fake Trump turns out to be able to speak. “Trump: his penis is tiny, but his love for America is great,” concluded the false announcement.
The White House denounced the episode on Thursday in a statement in a statement which called “South Park” a “fourth rate” which “has not been relevant for more than 20 years and which clings to a thread with ideas without inspiration in a desperate attempt at attention.”
Earlier this week, Parker and Stone resolved their monthly conflict with a global streaming duties with a new global agreement with $ 1.5 billion over 5 years. This agreement includes 50 new episodes of “South Park” and finally brings both the current season as well as the 26 previous seasons in Comedy Central and Paramount + for the first time.
