"South Park" creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone are, to put it mildly, not happy about the proposed merger between Comedy Central parent Paramount Global and Skydance Media.

In a blistering statement in response to the show’s Season 27 premiere date change announced earlier today, Parker and Stone wrote on X, “This merger is a sh**show and is f***ing up South Park. We are at the studio working on new episodes and we hope the fans get to see them somehow.”

The Season 27 premiere on Comedy Central, originally slated for July 9, is being moved to July 23.
