Sorry, New Episode to be a half hour long.

[parafinalia]

Just got a reply e-mail back from Comedy Network (Comedy central for canadians), and apparently the new episode is an hour long. Hope this isn't old news, didn't see anything regarding it.

Here is the email response.

"We will begin broadcasting October 17 and the premiere episode will be 1
(one) hour.

Thank you for your interest in The Comedy Network

October 17 is a Friday but SP always premieres the new episodes on Wednesdays...

Not sure how accurate that is but an hour show would be fun. Just like a two-parter without the extra credits!

Yea i was going to mention it's always a friday in Canada, we're a couple weeks behind. It will air October 8th in the States.

hour long episode would be sweet ^_^

The episode may end up as an hour long episode (like Cartoon Wars, Go God Go, or Do The Handicapped Go To Hell/Probably), but they will cut it into two 30 minute episodes where all shows use "To Be Continued..." phrase to seperate both.

I can't wait!
All of the long episodes have been excellent (on my opinion)... the anxiety!!

Another two parter....my god!!!

Sounds like Cartman did something that will 'blow our minds'

it has a clipping aboot it.

So it airs on the 17th in Canada? Wow, thats not too long a wait! Thanks CC! although I'll have to torrent it before then lol

But it makes it sound like its an hour premiere, not a two parter... so a longer season?

I love it when they really take the reins of their show like this!
Maybe its their way of making up for the rough patches in the first seven.

Awesome news. Huge South Park fan, the more the better. Something I've seen previews of and enjoyed is the new Spaceballs: The Animated Series.

It's the same flavor as the movie and has a lot of the original actors voices for the characters, also.

Let me know if you dig it,

Maybe TCN is going to have some sort of half-hour South Park special before they show the premiere episode.
