Why did South Park leave HULU? How to watch it now?

If you are wondering why you cannot find South Park on Hulu the last time you searched, it’s because the classic animated series is no longer available on the streaming service. Here’s everything you need to know regarding this.

Why South Park left Hulu

Hulu’s deal to stream South Park expired last month in June 2020. It seems the streaming service has simply been outbid by HBO Max, which seems like a fast-growing member of the streaming service world.

Where is South Park now?

South Park is now on the latest HBO streaming platform HBO Max. Ever since June 24, all 23 seasons of South Park have landed on and are available to stream on HBO Max.

What’s more, brand new episodes from the upcoming three seasons will also be added to HBO Max, 24 hours after their premiere on Comedy Central.

How to watch South Park outside US?

If you’re stuck in the UK in this COVID lockdown or any other part of the world outside of US, you can stream the series on the streaming giant Netflix.

Outside the boundaries, all streaming wars seem to have been won over by Netflix, the largest global streaming service at the moment.

Recently, the classic 90s NBC sitcom Friends jumped from Netflix and exclusively to HBO Max in the US. But in the rest of the world, the show is available to stream only on Netflix.

Where to purchase episodes of South Park?

If you do not subscribe to a streaming service, you can always purchase the latest South Park episodes via the likes of Amazon Prime Video or Google Play.

South Park is now officially yet another Comedy Central show which becomes difficult to stream. If you want to watch Detroiters or Review, for example, your best bet is the Comedy Central website (for which you will also need a cable login). 

What is South Park?

As per the official overview, the show follows four young, schoolgoing boys, Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, Eric Cartman and Kenny McCormick, who are residents of a quiet dysfunctional town of South Park and frequently set out on their glorious foul-mouthed adventures.

The show is known to have expanded the definition of children’s animation for decades now. It is also considered to have singlehandedly fueled the growth of the animation industry in the US and many parts of the world.

It was created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone.
