The twenty-fourth season of the American animated sitcom South Park is the shortest season of the series, consisting of two extended-length episodes: "The Pandemic Special" and "South ParQ Vaccination Special". The production of the season and the topics of both episodes were shaped by the COVID-19 pandemic.
While broadcast rights have remained with Comedy Central, this is the first season where the exclusive streaming rights have been held by HBO Max.[1]
