Part 6/10:
Theories abound regarding the delay:
Premise 1: The episode was initially crafted to revisit Cartman’s parody of Charlie Kirk, capitalizing on current events for maximum relevance. When a significant real-world event—specifically, the assassination of Charlie Kirk—occurred last week, the creators might have evaluated the content’s sensitivities.
Premise 2: They could have decided that releasing an episode potentially seen as trivializing or exploiting recent violence would be in poor taste. Consequently, production might have halted to retool or alter the episode’s content.
Premise 3: Alternatively, it’s entirely possible that the episode had nothing to do with Charlie Kirk or recent events, and the delay is purely logistical or due to other production factors.
