South Park Lands $1.5 Billion Streaming Deal With Paramount+ - IGN Daily Fix

Description :

The messy legal saga between South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker, and South Park rights holders at Paramount may be coming to an end. The show had been stuck in a sort of streaming limbo when rights to the show expired at HBO Max, but have not yet been picked up anywhere else. Paramount+ was the most logical place, but the impending merger between Paramount and Skydance put a hold on a lot of new dealmaking. With only a handful of episodes and on-off specials airing over the past two years, fans have been clamoring for a full new season, and now that Stone and Parker have signed a $1.5 billion deal, the fans will be getting what they want. In other news, the Pokémon Company held a Pokémon Direct, showing off new details on upcoming games like Pokémon Legends: Z-A, and the first peek at the new PokéPark KANTO opening in Tokyo next year.
