An eight-day, 254-episode South Park marathon will air on Comedy Central beginning September 6.

With the exception of The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, which will continue to air weekdays at 11 p.m. ET/10 p.m. CT, the 127-hour marathon will run uninterrupted leading up to the series' Season 21 premiere on September 13, according to Comedy Central's announcement.

The new season of South Park premieres Wednesday, September 13, at 10 p.m. ET/PT. While you wait, check out IGN's South Park: Season 20 review, or read how the long-running series changed the way one IGN editor thought about cartoons.

New South Park emojis will also begin appearing on Twitter as part of the 21st season's launch — using the hashtags #SouthPark, #NewSouthPark, #SouthParkPremiere, #SouthPark21, #Memberberries, and #Cartman will all, starting September 13, Twitter users can launch emojis that will be available throughout the season.

A new South Park video game will also be released later this year on October 17. Check out IGN's hands-on South Park: The Fractured But Whole preview for more. Ubisoft also announced the mobile game South Park: Phone Destroyer at E3 2017.
