South Park Season 15B Press Release

From SPS:

NEW YORK, September 21, 2011 The last time we visited South Park we left with a lot of unanswered questions. Tune in to see what happened when the first of seven all-new episodes of "South Park" airs on Wednesday, October 5 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT on Comedy Central.

To celebrate the 15th season of "South Park," Comedy Central and South Park Digital Studios are honoring the fans that have turned the award-winning series into a cultural phenomenon with a year-long celebration, marking 2011 as "The Year of the Fan."

Premiering on Sunday, October 9 at 10:00 p.m. is Arthur Bradford's documentary, "Six Days to Air: The Making of 'South Park.'" It follows the series creators, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, as they craft a single episode of their iconic hit show.

In addition, Parker and Stone surprised a New York University Storytelling class as professors in an mtvU's "Stand-In" series. The event will air on mtvU and mtvU.com on Monday, October 3, 2011 at 12:00 p.m. EST/ 9:00 p.m PST.

Recently voted "The Greatest Animated TV Series" in a poll conducted by Entertainment Weekly, Comedy Central's "South Park" launched on August 13, 1997 and premiered its 15th season on April 27. The series airs Wednesday nights at 10:00 p.m. and repeats later that night at midnight (all times ET/PT).

Matt Stone and Trey Parker "crash" NYU

The average person would probably look at Matt Stone and Trey Parker as funny guys who don't take their jobs seriously and just slack off, but they'd be dead wrong.  Their job, while high paying, is quite stressful and not easy.  They actually work hard and have a process for making South Park, and more specifically writing the episodes.  Part of the process is outlined below.
