“South Park” blew its satirical payload when, after various delays, season 27 debuted with an excoriating takedown of Donald Trump, the episode attracting 5.9 million viewers across Paramount Plus and Comedy Central in just its first three days.

After a week off the air, the R-rated animated comedy is charging back into the fray to continue its merciless mockery of the incumbent president and his administration. Catch it now with our guide explaining how to watch “South Park” season 27 episode 2 online from anywhere with a VPN.

‘South Park’ season 27 episode 2: date, time, channel and streaming options

"South Park" season 27 episode 2 debuts Wednesday, August 6 at 10 p.m. ET / PT
FREE Streams - 10 Comedy (Australia)
U.S. - Comedy Central via Sling, Fubo or Hulu with Live TV
Canada - Comedy Central Canada
The Rest of the World - Paramount Plus

Despite bungled contract negotiations repeatedly curbing the season 27 premiere, “South Park” returned all guns blazing with their roast of Donald Trump.

In fact, he’s unequivocally ridiculed in “Sermon on the Mount”: depicted as a shrill, “tin pot dictator” in the 1999 “South Park” movie, and a literal bedfellow of Satan. The episode also addresses Trump’s lawsuit against Paramount Global (who currently own “South Park”) for $16 million, and show creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone don't shy away from criticising the media conglomerate itself.

Needless to say, the White House's response wasn’t complimentary. They released a statement declaring that the show was "uninspired" and “hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years.” Well, they might want to look away now. Because Parker and Stone are doubling-down on the ridicule in their sophomore assault, with Satan fending off advances from Trump at a black tie dinner and Mr Mackey going on a gun-toting ride along with ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) in the episode 2 preview.

Don’t miss the latest controversy-baiting installment: the following guide explains how to watch “South Park” season 27 episode 2 online from anywhere – and potentially for free!

Watch 'South Park' season 27 anywhere

Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching "South Park" season 27 on your usual subscription?

You can still watch the special thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are. Ideal when you're away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN – and you can find out why in our NordVPN review.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're visiting the U.K. and want to view a U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Fire up your website or streaming service of choice and tune in just as you would at home.

We're going on down to "South Park" again! U.S. fans with cable can watch "South Park" season 27 episode 2 via Comedy Central on Wednesday, August 6 at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

If you don't have cable, then cord-cutting services with Comedy Central include Sling TV (50% off), which is available through either the Sling Orange or Sling Blue package from $46 per month. You can even get 50% off your first month, before returning to the original fee.

Hulu with Live TV plans start from $82.99 per month, after a 3-day free trial.

Fubo.TV packs a lot more channels, although it costs a fair bit more. But it does offer a 7-day free trial before you pay anything, though.

Of these options, we recommend Sling TV (one of the best streaming services and best cable TV alternatives).

Just want to stream the show? Paramount Plus will upload brand-new "South Park" episodes every Thursday, the day after they've aired on Comedy Central.
