The White House may not be laughing, but South Park’s Donald Trump-mocking season opener just pulled off a historic ratings feat.
The long-running animated series is basking in its biggest premiere since the Clinton era, with the episode—featuring a depiction of Trump’s “teeny-tiny” manhood—drawing the largest share of cable viewers for a season opener since 1999, according to a Comedy Central press release. Viewership jumped 68 percent compared to last season’s premiere.
In the three days following its July 23 debut, the episode, titled “Sermon on the ‘Mount,’” drew nearly 6 million viewers across Comedy Central and the Paramount+ streaming service. It was the most-watched show on all cable channels on its debut day.
South Park, which first aired on August 13, 1997, didn’t just dominate cable, it also lit up social media. Comedy Central noted that #SouthPark trended on X for more than 12 hours.
So much for the the show not being relevant and hanging on by a thread.

Sorry bro. This isn't the win you think it is. Bunch of people tuned in to see Trump's penis. Genius.

Malignant narcissist sex offender on full display. In his own words.
Still a hero to some.
He's more upset that Epstein "stole" her from mar-a-lago then he is that she was sexually abused and committed suicide as a result. It's always all about him. Dude's priorities are all fvcked up.

Such utter POS you guys are.
Its disgusting
Uh oh…fake news is real and make Bobcatter mad!
The POS would be the the dude who employed 16 year old girls at his spa and got angry when his friend stole them. After all, they’re just property right?
Yeah because RS is the only one reporting on this and it didn’t come straight out of Trump’s mouth.
It would help if you were at least a little aware of current news topics before trying to lay smack.
Yawn.
SG is at it again with his logical fallacies - this time with a genetic fallacy - when an argument is dismissed (or accepted) based solely on the origin or source of the information, rather than its actual content or merit.
