NEW YORK : The rights to stream"South Park," the popular animated comedy featuring foul-mouthed children, is the subject of a new lawsuit where Warner Bros Discovery Inc is seeking hundreds of millions of dollars in damages from Paramount Global.

Warner said that after being told in 2020 it would not receive 10 new episodes, representing season 24, because the COVID-19 pandemic had halted production, the"South Park" creators began producing other content, while Paramount prepared to launch its own Paramount+ streaming service. Warner said it now expects to receive only 14 of the 30 new"South Park" episodes it had been promised, including two"Pandemic Specials" that Paramount claims constitute season 24.
