South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone have dropped their highly anticipated final episode of the season, taking a stand against the Trump administration and signaling a "reset" for the franchise.
The South Park season 28 finale featured Stan seeking a miracle and a major showdown between pregnant Satan encountering President Donald Trump as Santa and Vice President JD Vance as an elf — all dressed up for the holidays — while they arrive to free Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and MAGA billionaire and "antichrist expert" Peter Thiel. But when Jesus shows up, per Trump's request, Satan's water breaks and the gang heads to the hospital, "where doctors pronounce the child has died in the womb, the result of a suicide suspiciously similar to Jeffrey Epstein’s (the foetus supposedly hung itself, although there is a minute of ultrasound footage mysteriously missing)," according to The Guardian.
The episode revealed even more about what the creative duo has considered about Trump — and the expected battle ahead.
"Most viewers were probably anticipating a giant, apocalyptic climax to the various long-running storylines – chief among them Donald Trump’s attempts to kill his and his lover Satan’s soon-to-be-born spawn. Instead, Stone and Parker swerved expectations, delivering an introspective and ultimately melancholy climax, one that managed to balance hope and despair in equal measure, alongside the outrageous shock humour for which they’re famous," The Guardian reported.
While South Park has pressed on the Trump administration in the past, this was different.
"At the same time, Parker and Stone are clearly looking to the future, including their continuing fight on behalf of freedom of speech (when, late in the episode, Jesus declares: 'Go ahead and sue me, I’m not going to be afraid any more,' it’s clearly Stone and Parker making a stand)," The Guardian reported.
"And while it’s a fool’s errand to try to guess what next season has in store, we can probably assume the duo are not finished with Trump and his cronies. The destruction those in office have wreaked on the US has clearly inflamed the duo more than anything else in years, while, somewhat ironically, bringing those same characters into the show has also breathed new life into it," according to The Guardian.
