On Tuesday night, South Park Studios lost power. From animation to rendering to editing and sound, all of their computers were down for hours and they were unable to finish episode 1704 “Goth Kids 3: Dawn of the Posers” in time for air tonight.
Trey Parker said, “It sucks to miss an air date but after all these years of tempting fate by delivering the show last minute, I guess it was bound to happen.”
“Goth Kids 3: Dawn of the Posers” will air next Wednesday, October 23rd.
In place tonight Comedy Central will air a Live-Tweeted presentation of “Scott Tenorman Must Die” at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT

Wait, are they serious? Are they delivering the show's episodes at the last minute, or was that some joke?
ReplyDeleteYeah, it takes them something like a week to make each episode I think, and they literally do it the week it's airing. And now they're only doing 10 episodes a year too - not bad going to be that successful and only working 10 weeks a year! (although obviously they have lots of other stuff going on in between, but still)
ReplyDeleteThey have done the show that way for quite a few years now. They even made a documentary about it: 6 Days To Air
ReplyDeleteJust one of the many reasons that they shouldn't make it that way.
ReplyDeleteNo, that's how they have always done it.
ReplyDeleteThat's surprising considering the show's success. But thanks for the reply!
