South Park Creators Ink Big Deal with Comedy Central

It was announced in a press release from Comedy Central that South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone have agreed to a three-season extension for their show and entered into a momentous joint venture with Comedy Central to create South Park Digital Studios. The strategic alliance includes the formation of a digital animation studio at South Park headquarters in Los Angeles that will serve as the new home for all digital extensions of the South Park franchise as well as an incubator for new animated projects. In the press release, South Park co-creator Matt Stone said, "Three more years of South Park will give us the opportunity to offend that many more people. And since Trey and I are in charge of the digital side of South Park, we can offend people on their cell phones, game consoles and computers, too. It's all very exciting for us." What does this mean for fans? Possibly video games for every platform and an expanded and even better online home, currently SouthParkStudios.com. The re-launch is set for the beginning of 2008.
