South Park's Back to the Cold War predicts the present Russia Ukraine Situation (Image via Facebook)According to creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker's ability to develop fresh episodes at breakneck speed, the long-running animated series South Park will premiere the first written TV episode about the Russian-Ukraine war.South Park has a long history of focusing on current events with quick turnarounds, and the preview for this week's show appears to continue that trend.South Park's Back to the Cold War: Plotline, air time, and morePlotIn the trailer for the upcoming episode, Mr. Mackay argued for a seventh nuclear-emergency practice in two days, claiming that "we are going to be prepared." View this post on Instagram Instagram PostWhen the PC Principal pointed out that Mackay also sought budget space for "a bomb shelter and 20 VHS copies of Red Dawn," the guidance counselor responds, “VHS is still really the best format when you think about it.”The video does not mention Russia or Ukraine, but it does imply a lot of nostalgia for the 1980s when the Cold War was still in full swing. Mackey's piano tie, the boombox in the backdrop, and, of course, the Red Dawn videocassettes are all worth mentioning.When will it air?The episode premieres on Comedy Central on March 2 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT, and it will be available to watch after that on SouthPark.cc.com, CC.com, and the Comedy Central App.ʚ Waylon ♥ ɞ@popilleuFinally caught up with South Park & gosh the tears in my eyes.
