As the United States elects a new President today, Comedy Central is already set to air a new episode of its hit animated show in which the citizens of South Park are celebrating the result. Titled, ‘About Last Night…,’ the latest South Park installment premieres on Wednesday, Nov. 5 at 10 p.m. (ET/PT).
While the country celebrates, the President-elect catches everyone off guard when he arrives at the White House prematurely. From the Oval Office, the new Commander-In-Chief assembles his team and prepares for the job ahead. Series producers aren’t saying which candidate they predict will win, but fans will find out if they got it right on Wednesday, assuming the election will be decided by then. The episode repeats Wednesday at 12 a.m., Thursday at 10 p.m. and 12 a.m., and Sunday at 11 p.m. and 2 a.m.
If the installment is a hit with viewers, we may see the new President become a recurring character on the show. South Park launched in 1997 and should be around long enough to see yet another politician appointed to the highest elected office. Now in its 12th season, the show remains the highest-rated series on Comedy Central. The official website, www.southparkstudios.com, this week added new features for its ‘Avatar Creator,’ allowing visitors to make South Park alter-egos for themselves, their friends and their families.
