South Park is back for Season 27, and it kicked off with a bombshell premiere. The first episode saw Donald Trump depicted with a minuscule penis, in bed with Satan, effectively taking over Saddam Hussein’s role in the cartoon series. The Trump administration is angry (just as South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone likely hoped).

The new episode carried extra weight since it aired on Paramount+, which struck a reported $1.5 billion deal for exclusive rights to South Park just hours before the season premiere. Paramount has been facing backlash this week after it unexpectedly cancelled The Late Show, suspiciously soon after host Stephen Colbert criticized the company’s payout to the Trump administration.

After taking a week off, South Park Season 27 is back Aug. 6 with episode two.
