South Park creators have confirmed there will be no new episode tonight after failing to get it done on time.

Trey Parker and Matt Stone have been releasing episodes of season 27 twice a month, with the last one, Wok is Dead, coming out on September 3, in which Satan revealed he was pregnant with Donald Trump’s baby.

The pair famously create the new content as they go, and in a new statement the showrunners admitted that in a rare turn of events they had failed to get the new episode over the line in time, forcing them to postpone it.

Normally, the episode is released at 10pm ET, so this delay was announced just hours ahead of the planned broadcast.

‘Apparently, when you do everything at the last minute, sometimes you don’t get it done. This one’s on us. We didn’t get it done in time.
