Poor Butters! Comedy Central’s super short teaser trailer for South Park season 26 shows the kid’s in big trouble. But, really, isn’t that pretty much par for the course with Butters?
The teaser trailer was just the cherry on top of Comedy Central’s South Park news. The network confirmed fans of the adult animated series can mark February 8, 2023 on their calendars for the premiere of season 26. The announcement did not indicate the number of season 26 episodes, but we can hope it’s many more than the shortened season 25.

Series creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone recently celebrated the show’s 25th anniversary with the “South Park: The 25th Anniversary Concert.” The concert featured Parker, Stone, Primus, Ween, and members of the band Rush and included fan-favorite songs. The special aired on August 13, 2022, marking the anniversary of the day the animated series debuted on Comedy Central.
The concert was filmed at Red Rocks Park and Amphitheater and is currently available to stream on Paramount+.
Over the course of its 25-year run, the animated show has earned five Primetime Emmy Awards in the Outstanding Animated Program category. It’s also picked up an Annie Award, a Peabody, a CableACE Award, and an AFI Award for TV Program of the Year.
