Here's release date, time, what to expect, cast, where to watch on TV and stream online Live Events South Park Season 27 Episode 3 Delay Reason The main reason for the delay was the anniversary of the South Park premiere. On August 13, Comedy Central celebrated 28 years since the first broadcast. The week also allowed Trey Parker and Matt Stone more time to work on the episode. South Park is created under a very short production cycle. Episodes are written, voiced, and animated in just days. This quick schedule allows real-time responses to current events, but delays are common. Season 27 Episode 2 also released a week later than expected. Backlash against the show is not new. Kristi Noem criticized her depiction in a recent episode. She claimed mocking appearances was lazy but avoided the reference to her admission about shooting a dog. The White House also objected to a South Park Trump PSA. At Comic-Con 2025, Trey Parker responded with humor and explained how the team avoided censorship of explicit content.

Nora Fatehi opens up on making her Tamil debut with Kanchana 4: 'Every industry has its own flavor'
Nora Fatehi is all set for her Tamil debut as the female lead in Kanchana 4. One of the most anticipated movies, Kanchana 4 marks a special milestone for Nora, and she is thrilled to be part of it, especially since this is her first appearance in Tamil cinema. She is enthusiastically embracing this new phase of her career. In an interview with Hindustan Times, Nora said, 'When Kanchana 4 was offered to me, I immediately felt it was the right project to step into Tamil cinema. The franchise already has such a strong legacy, and the script was so unique that I wanted to be part of it. I was also looking to do another comedy after the success of Madgaon Express.' Although Nora isn't afraid to experiment, language has been a challenge. 'Of course, language is always a challenge, but I love challenges. This has definitely been the hardest so far, but I spend extra hours rehearsing,' she shared. Having previously worked in both the Telugu and Malayalam industries, Nora reflected on the differences she has observed. 'Every industry has its own flavor.
