‘South Park’ Scraps Schedule for Politically Charged Halloween Special
In a move that has fans buzzing, “South Park” is breaking from its usual release pattern for a one-night-only Halloween special that takes direct aim at President Donald Trump. The episode, titled “The Woman In The Hat,” is set to premiere on Halloween night, Friday, Oct. 31, at 10 p.m. ET/PT, replacing the previously scheduled episode for Wednesday, Oct. 29.
What is “The Woman In The Hat” About?
The upcoming special dives headfirst into recent political headlines, focusing on the controversial demolition of the White House’s East Wing to make way for a new ballroom. According to the episode’s official log line, the story involves “The White House deals with a disruptive spirit from the east wing; Stan worries that South Park has become too political.” The announcement, teased across the show’s social media pages, signals that creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone are not shying away from controversial topics.
A History of Controversy
This episode is the latest in a series of pointed critiques aimed at Trump and his cabinet, including Vice President JD Vance and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. The show’s relentless parody has not gone unnoticed. After a previous episode in July mocked the president, the White House issued a sharp rebuke.
“This show hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention,” White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers stated. “[President Trump] has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country’s history — and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump’s hot streak.”
