Paramount+ keeps the chapter

An episode of the popular animated series South Park was pulled from Comedy Central’s programming following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a right-wing activist and close ally of President Donald Trump.

The episode in question, titled Got a Nut, premiered on August 6 as part of the show’s most recent season and had remained in rotation until news of the crime broke.

The plot follows Clyde Donovan, who launches a podcast filled with rants aimed at so-called “woke students.”

In a satirical twist, Donovan sets up a table at South Park Elementary to challenge his classmates and “destroy liberals” who dare to debate him in front of the microphone.

The dynamic directly mirrored the confrontational style of Charlie Kirk, who had adopted a similar strategy in real life through his organization Turning Point USA.

Comedy Central decided to remove the episode after the news of Kirk’s assassination, although Paramount+ continues to offer it on-demand through its streaming platform.

The Assassination of Charlie Kirk

South Park Pulls Episode Mocking Charlie Kirk –

Charlie Kirk, 31, was attacked while participating in a university event in Utah as part of his American Comeback Tour, organized by the group he co-founded, Turning Point USA.

Authorities confirmed that it was a targeted attack, and the FBI released images of the suspect fleeing across rooftops from the location where the shot was fired.

The news shocked the conservative movement, where Kirk was an influential figure thanks to his ability to connect with young people and his close relationship with President Trump.

In previous interviews, Kirk had admitted he felt honored to have been parodied on South Park, according to UNO TV.

He argued that the satire demonstrated the cultural relevance of his movement and highlighted that the series was an “equal-opportunity offender.”

Social media even circulated an image of Eric Cartman dressed as Charlie Kirk, shared by accounts linked to The Charlie Kirk Show.

South Park and Political Satire

South Park has long maintained a tradition of tackling American politics with biting humor and sharp mockery aimed at all kinds of public figures.

In July, Trey Parker, one of the show’s creators, appeared at Comic-Con and delivered an ironic “apology” to Trump for the jokes featured in the premiere of season 27.

The White House responded harshly at the time, calling the program a “third-rate show desperate for attention.”

The removal of the Got a Nut episode highlights the delicate balance between satire and political sensitivity—especially when real-world events collide with television fiction.
