Is 'South Park' Season 27, Episode 3 on Tonight?
Comedy Central Predicting what will happen in a South Park episode is hard, but anticipating when a new installment will air might be even tougher. The hit satirical series had its season 27 premiere date pushed by two weeks and then announced its second episode would debut two weeks after the first. South Park hasn't released a similar statement for the forthcoming third installment, but according to The Hollywood Reporter, the show will not unveil a new episode this week. Comedy Central is instead commemorating "South Park Day," a celebration of the show's fans with a marathon of past episodes, interviews from Comic-Con and more. South Park's first episode, Cartman Gets an Anal Probe, will air at the time a new episode usually would. While we'll have to wait for more details on the next South Park, another aspect of the show is more definitive: its new streaming home. With the signing of a deal in July, 50 new South Park episodes and the show's back catalog will be on Comedy Central and Paramount Plus. Forthcoming episodes of season 27 will stream on Paramount Plus in the US the day after airing on Comedy Central. The show is no longer available on HBO Max as of early August. If you want to watch the 27th season of the show co-created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, here's what to know. South Park season 27, episode 3 release date and streaming details The release date for episode 3 has not been announced. If it follows the current trend of skipping one week, it will air on Wednesday, Aug. 20, at 10 p.m. ET/10 p.m. PT/9 p.m. CT and stream on Paramount Plus the next day (the first two episodes are already on the streaming service). CNET has reached out to Comedy Central and will update this story if we learn anything new. Season 27 episodes will hit Paramount Plus in the US the day after they air on Comedy Central, according to Deadline. If you don't want to wait that long to watch without cable, you might want to consider a live TV streaming service like Philo, Sling or YouTube TV. More on that below. James Martin/CNET Paramount Plus Paramount Plus has two plans: Paramount Plus Essential and Paramount Plus Premium, which used to be called Paramount Plus with Showtime. Essential costs $8 per month and includes ads and a sampling of Showtime programming. Premium removes ads and unlocks more Showtime titles, among other perks. See at Paramount Plus Philo Philo Carries Comedy Central Philo is a live TV streaming service that provides more than 70 channels, including Comedy Central. A subscription costs $28 per month and also includes access to AMC Plus content. Rivals like YouTube TV come with more channels but Philo could be a good fit for you if you like its smaller selection for a lower price. See at Philo

Howard Stern Tries to Own the Rumor Mill of His SiriusXM Demise
Taking on the Fleet Street rumor mill isn't easy, but it appears SiriusXM and Howard Stern are giving it a shot. In the lead-up to Stern's next contract talks with the satellite radio giant — his five-year deal was estimated to be worth $100 million a year and is up at the end of 2025 — a familiar refrain of 'Is this it for Howard?' has echoed a bit louder given his age, 71, and this transitional media moment (podcasts are flooding the zone, and also becoming the new TV, too). More from The Hollywood Reporter SiriusXM Reports Drop to 33 Million Paid Subscribers, Strength in Podcasting 'Morbid' Podcast Moves to SiriusXM In Multiyear Deal (Exclusive) SiriusXM Launches Lower Cost Ad-Supported Plan in Bid to Take on Streaming Audio Giants This time it was The Sun, with its Aug. 5 air quote 'to be canceled' headline, that sent a reminder that it's once again negotiations mode between the 'King of All Media' and his home for the past two decades. The News Corp. paper, citing an insider that contradicted its own headline, said that Sirius would be offering Stern a new deal but the two parties are 'never going to meet on the money.' The line reads like a 'work the refs' blind quote — it puts both Stern and SiriusXM on notice that this could be a breaking point — while also being fed into the media ecosystem with plenty of time on the clock to reach a new deal before the host's contract is up. Now, unlike prior negotiation dramas, the wild card is which side may want to walk this time, at least that may be the tabloid's premise. It pages the lawyers and dealmakers for both sides to get serious, or not. While it seems unlikely that SiriusXM is looking to shed itself of its most recognizable asset in a tough moment for the radio giant — its consumer-facing app underperformed and its been stuck at around 33 million subscribers for a few years while navigating the rise of a podcast-driven era that has threatened its walled garden — it doesn't seem out of realm of possibility that the company is looking for Stern to take a home team discount. (Speaking of dealmakers, it's also worth noting that the super agent that had repped Stern in his last go-around for a SiriusXM contract, and for many decades, Don Buchwald, passed away last year.) In any case, on Wednesday, a promo began running on SiriusXM leaning in to the drama. 'The tabloids have spoken: Howard Stern fired, canceled, is it really 'Bye-Bye Booey'? Chaos is swirling at The Howard Stern Show,' intoned a movie trailer-ready narrator in the ad running on SiriusXM. 'Did staffers talk to the press? Are writers withholding their best jokes? Nobody knows what's going on or who to trust.' Naturally, the promo is a set up for Stern himself. 'Now we can reveal all the questions will be answered, all the truths will be told by the one man truly on the inside,' the trailer narrator said on SiriusXM's airwaves. 'Howard Stern will speak Tuesday September 2.' Well played. Publicly, SiriusXM executives, who are asked about Stern nearly every chance there's a media press availability, keep pointing to him as a unique talent while also ushering in new stars like Alex Cooper, Stephen A. Smith, Trevor Noah and the Smartless crew as well as recent adds like the Morbid true crime podcast. And SiriusXM is now managing its stars on multiple platforms. 'When a creator's reach suddenly expands, such as Mel Robbins show, which is up more than 500 percent year-over-year, or Conan O'Brien adding full-length podcast video on YouTube, we are able to quickly and effectively monetize that growth,' SiriusXM CEO Jennifer Witz said on a July 31 earnings call. The company is also in the midst of belt-tightening, dealing with reduced advertising revenue — down 2 percent year-over-year — and also cutting its tech and product workforce by 10 percent in order to 'operate more nimbly,' CFO Thomas Barry stated. But that doesn't mean keeping Howard Stern is a deal-breaker. 'He's been with me and the company going on two decades, and so he's pretty happy, but he's also able, like many great artists, to stop whenever he wants,' chief content officer Scott Greenstein told The Hollywood Reporter last year of Stern. 'Nobody will ever replace them. We would never try to replace them. It's not what is even appropriate, but even practical. What you always want to do in anything, whether it's a sports team or a media company, you want to have a great bench of talent that have their own identity.'

Beyoncé Wins First Emmy for N.F.L. Halftime Show
Nearly three decades into show business and 35 Grammys later, Beyoncé has won her first Emmy. The win brings her one step closer to EGOT status. Beyoncé won a Primetime Emmy Award for outstanding costumes for variety, nonfiction or reality programming alongside five collaborators for 'Beyoncé Bowl,' her N.F.L. halftime performance that streamed live on Netflix on Christmas Day during a game between the Houston Texans and the Baltimore Ravens. The award was one of several announced on Tuesday by the Television Academy in juried categories that recognized creative achievement in animation, costume, emerging media programming and motion design. For juried categories, entrants are screened and evaluated by a panel of professionals with the possibility of one, more than one or no one winning an award. 'As a result, there are no nominees but instead a one-step evaluation and voting procedure,' a news release from the Television Academy said. The honors will be presented next month at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles. Beyoncé's 13-minute western-themed performance — which took place in Houston, her hometown — showcased songs from her latest album, 'Cowboy Carter,' including '16 Carriages,' 'Blackbird' and 'Ya Ya,' and was a precursor to her world tour. Her performance, which was part of Netflix's first foray into live professional football streaming, drew an audience of 27 million, according to Nielsen. It also led to the hashtag #BeyonceBowl outranking #Christmas on X, according to Netflix. For her work on 'Beyoncé Bowl,' the pop superstar is also nominated for two additional Primetime Emmys for outstanding directing for a variety special and for outstanding variety special. Before this win, Beyoncé had received several other Emmy nominations: four for her 2019 'Homecoming' film, two for her 2016 'Lemonade' HBO special, one for her 'On the Run' HBO special with her husband, Jay-Z, in 2014, and one for her Super Bowl halftime show from 2013.
