(CNN) – The creators of “South Park” announced Tuesday that the show will go by the name “South America” for its 29th season.
Trey Parker and Matt Stone have long poked fun at President Donald Trump through the show.
“Inspired by the bravery and patriotism of Apple and Google, we are changing the name of South Park to SOUTH AMERICA,” the creators announced. “We especially want to thank our parent company Paramount — a Skydance Capitulation.”
This move is a tongue-in-cheek reference to the president’s second term actions to rename geographic bodies.
Trump has signed executive orders to change Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America and most recently, Lake Ontario to Lake America.
The Emmy Award-winning “South Park” debuts its new season Sept. 16 on Comedy Central with next day streaming on Paramount+.
