its kinda funny because I think they did not like them so made this outrageous offer and paramount accepted and they made sure no caveats so they could do all sorts of things that would make paramount want to drop them but they are in too deep.
well that’s the thing. It’s a catch 22. All the stuff that would make paramount want to drop them? People will get subscriptions to stream it just to see the episodes. So Paramount then wants to keep them from a money standpoint.
Just about a year ago, ‘South Park’ creators reach $1.5-billion streaming deal with Paramount.
So yeah, that’s fuck you levels of money.

Not just subscriptions, Paramount will also get revenue from youtube for clips, and people share south park clips a lot.
I’m just surprised South Park generates that much money to be worth it. It’s Microsoft buying Minecraft kinds of money.
That’s even crazier, Minecraft was just one problematic programmer.
Notch wasn’t even in the team anymore after he sold out to Microsoft so it wasn’t really that much of a big deal
Nobody needs to subscribe to paramount
Paramount is gonna bring about their own reckoning, I swear
They’re playing both sides and making money from everyone.
It’s like Elvis’s manager selling both I love Elvis and I hate Elvis buttons.
