"South Park" removed from Paramount+ internationally

Lots of sources have reported the removal of South Park from Paramount+ outside the U.S. due to the international licence expiring. The seven short-form movies and The 25th Anniversary Concert are still available to stream, however.

They were already planning on removing some episodes from the service, although I believe they backed out before removing the entire show.

Here's an article from the LA Times that talks about Paramount+'s deal with South Park that's from June this year: ‘South Park’ dispute escalates as creators accuse Paramount’s buyers of meddling.

It seems by the time the new season releases most of the episodes will be outdated in a way.

It seems South Park's creators and Paramount+ have reached a deal. LA Times Article: 'South Park' creators reach $1.5-billion streaming deal with Paramount.
