About this many. More if they bring in others such as Bill Hader (For example) and then there’s the crews who send the show to Comedy Central snd Much at the satellite uplink. https://southpark.cc.com/about/cast-and-crew

I want the first episode to be an episode where Wendy drinks a monster potion.

I also want a second episode with the title "Headless Cartman" where Cartman's head is actually in his shirt.

Can't wait :c

is it possible that the new season is delayed because of the coronavirus? we know it has already happened to a lot of series, and in those cases it was to avoid gathering.

that's why i asked (see above) how many people are involved in the creation of an episode.

i imagine it should not be an issue for south park, just wanted to be sure.

They always start in the fall. September. If they wanted to do a season with people working remotely, I believe they have the technology to do so. That is one of the things they have going for them. A lot of current technology didn’t exist even so much as a decade ago. The writers room in theory could literally be set up as a Zoom meeting if they felt good about doing that. If not, it could be delayed.

Is the fact they are taking a bit longer than usual to announce Season 24 a sign they're daying it? Or is it really just them trying to figure out how they'll produce the season, before they make an announcement?

Just some speculation.

My thoughts exactly.

And it's true, as the other user said, that many things can be discussed and done remotely, but if there were no issues, by now they should have long announced the date of the premiere.
