'South Park' Announces Second Coronavirus-Themed Special

South Park is once again addressing the pandemic.

Comedy Central announced a second coronavirus-themed South Park episode is coming, called South ParQ The Vaccination Special, which will debut on Comedy Central on March 10 at 8 p.m. ET/PT with a simulcast on MTV2.

The first-hour long special became the highest-rated episode of the series in seven years, and followed Stan, Cartman, Kyle and Kenny as they went back to school amid the “new normal.”

The upcoming special will “follow the chaos as the town clamors to get a coveted dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, and the boys face off against a militant group which is trying to prevent them getting a vaccine for their teacher,” via Hypebeast.

The teaser for the upcoming special was released at the same time as the announcement.

Comedy Central has ordered two seasons of the show, and the deal also includes potential spin-offs and specials.

Mike is set to write, produce and provide the voices for both iconic characters.

“It seemed like the time was right to get stupid again,” he said in a statement.

The original show launched in 1993 on MTV.

“We are thrilled to be working with Mike Judge and the great team at 3 Arts again as we double down on Adult Animation at Comedy Central. Beavis and Butt-Head were a defining voice of a generation, and we can’t wait to watch as they navigate the treacherous waters of a world light-years from their own,” said Viacom exec Chris McCarthy.

Speaking of reboots, this Hollywood blockbuster is also about to get a modern re-imagining.
