Why there is no new episode every Wednesday
The dates are easy to misread as a normal Wednesday schedule. They are not. After the premiere, the official list skips one Wednesday each time: September 30, October 14, October 28, November 11 and November 25.
Comedy Central and Paramount+ announced the pattern, but the official release reviewed for this guide does not explain why the episodes are spaced two weeks apart. It is accurate to call the run every other Wednesday; it would be speculation to attach a production reason.
New episode nights are Sep 30, Oct 14, Oct 28, Nov 11 and Nov 25.
Comedy Central is the Wednesday TV premiere. Paramount+ is the next-day option in the named markets.

Where to watch the next episode
Watch the TV premiere
The official season announcement gives 10 p.m. ET/PT. Comedy Central’s current homepage lists the September 30 episode as 10/9c. Your provider’s local guide is the final check for the channel and local feed.
Stream after broadcast
The official announcement promises next-day availability in the U.S., Canada and Australia. Paramount+ currently labels the next episode as streaming October 1, matching the September 30 TV date.
Do not plan around a guessed midnight release. The reviewed official pages state the day, not a universal hour. If the episode is not visible when Thursday begins, check the show page later rather than treating an unofficial countdown as a guarantee.
Why the official site says “South America”
If the name on the official season page looks wrong, you have not opened a different series. South Park Studios currently presents Season 29 under the on-site name South America, while the network’s formal announcement still identifies it as the 29th season of South Park.
For finding the schedule, use “South Park Season 29.” For checking clips or the season page, be prepared to see “South America” in the page heading. This guide keeps the familiar series name because that is the query viewers are most likely to type.
