Comedy Central has pulled a controversial “South Park” episode that parodied Charlie Kirk after the conservative activist was gunned down at a Utah college on Wednesday.
The Paramount Skydance-owned network quietly removed the rerun of the episode “Got a Nut” from its cable lineup Wednesday night, just hours after Kirk, 31, was shot and killed while speaking at Utah Valley University.
Instead of airing Season 27, Episode 2 — in which Eric Cartman adopts Kirk’s mannerisms and appearance for a satirical college debate podcast — Comedy Central slotted in Episode 1 from the same season. 5
The network did not issue a public statement but confirmed to industry outlets that the episode was “temporarily pulled” from its cable rotation.
It remains available to stream on Paramount+ wi
