How to watch South Park The Streaming Wars Part 2 for free online — release date and time
Manbearpig is back in South Park The Streaming Wars Part 2

Yes, as we hoped, we're getting a second South Park Paramount Plus special to follow up the chaotic energy of the first chapter. How on Earth anyone thought we'd be able to leave that episode without a follow up is beyond us.
South Park The Streaming Wars debuted today (Wednesday, June 1) at 3 a.m. ET.

Last we left the not-so-quiet mountain town, Randy was on his way to Karen status (more on that in the trailer below), as he was increasingly upset with Tolkien's family getting in on the legal marijuana business. This led to a "streaming wars" that's different than the battle of the best streaming services. Though that's exactly what the show was referring to when Kyle, Cartman and Butters argued over the poor quality of their little boats.
Meanwhile, Cartman got ... how do we put this ... obscenely oversized breast implants. Yes, the 10-year-old now has implants as big as his own head. Clearly, that's one of the issues that South Park The Streaming Wars Part 2 will find a way to un-do. We don't see this continuing.
The biggest problem, though, is that Manbearpig is murdering South Park residents, doing the work of waterpark owner Pi Pi. Yes, South Park has finally tacitly admitted that climate change is real and that it's also dangerous. In its own weird way.
Here's everything you need to watch South Park The Streaming Wars Part 2 online, plus the trailer!

New subscribers (aka those who were waiting for this chapter to watch the first) can take advantage of a free 7-day Paramount Plus trial and watch South Park The Streaming Wars without paying. It arrived at 3 a.m. ET / 12 a.m. PT today (Wednesday, June 1).
This is the fourth of 14 South Park specials made exclusively for Paramount Plus. The series will still debut new seasons on Comedy Central, where it's going to run to at least a 30th season. Seasons 25 and 26 will air on HBO Max 24 hours after airing on Comedy Central, because that's not confusing.
Paramount Plus combines what used to be CBS All Access with even more content from ViacomCBS partners. Includes Survivor and Big Brother episodes, as well as originals like Star Trek: Picard and The Good Fight.
Can you watch South Park The Streaming Wars Part 2 in the U.K., Canada and Australia?
Well, now that Paramount Plus is in the U.K. (it's long been in Canada and Australia), the answer should be "yes." But there's a hitch. The press release announcing the special states it will "will premiere Wednesday, July 13 in the U.S., and roll out internationally in all markets where the service is available." Which is a funny way of saying "We're not telling you when it's coming."
If you're abroad, though, you can use a service such as ExpressVPN, to make it seem like your device is back home.
