Though most of the 48-minute special’s plot is under wraps, the logline reveals that “Cartman locks horns with his mom in a battle of wills while an epic conflict unfolds that threatens South Park’s very existence.” The event follows last year’s South Park: Post COVID and South Park: Post COVID: The Return of COVID specials. Comedy Central says the fourth exclusive event will arrive later this summer from MTV Entertainment Studios.
