>Comedy Central announced Wednesday that it will extend its flagship series, South Park, by three seasons (in addition to the two years remaining on the show's existing contract). The deal will keep original episodes of the foul-mouthed sitcom coming through 2019 — and through the series' landmark 300th episode.

A former staff member of Comedy Central has reportedly leaked information that alleges that seasons 19 and 20 of the popular animated program “South Park” will shift to a live action format. The staffer declined to give their name but claimed to have “worked close to the South Park writing team for some time”.

Comedy Central and series creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone agreed in late 2011 to keep the show running through 2016. Starting with the 2013 season, Parker and Stone shifted to a non-stop ten episode season in contrast with previous seasons where anywhere from fourteen to eighteen episodes were filmed. It was speculated that Parker and Stone were getting weary of the show and the shorter seasons were a way to reduce their work load while keeping things fresh. Parker and Stone continued to switch things up in the most recent season by referencing earlier episodes for the first time in the show’s history. Previously, each episode was a stand alone story – hence how “Kenny” was able to killed multiple times, leading to one of the long-standing gags on the show.

The shift to live action was even teased during the recent season 18 episode “Grounded Vindaloop”. In “Grounded Vindaloop”, the plot circles around the main characters using a virtual reality device. Towards the end of the episode, the character Stan removes the virtual reality helmet and the viewers are treated to a live action shot of the characters standing around a computer. The final three episodes of the season revert back to the standard animated format.

The ex-staffer claims that, “They’re always teasing things in the episodes to see what the reaction from the audience will be. A lot of times things fly over their (the audience) heads and there is no pay off. However, in this case, I heard through the grapevine that the response to the live action scene was positive enough to get execs to sign off on letting them do the next two seasons as a live action show.”

Can you imagine if they actually pulled it off, though?

It would be an instant success, one of the top 10 programs on cable in ratings, guaranteed. All the oldfag fans would come back, at least in the beginning.
