South Park Season 27 returned with Episode 6 on Comedy Central after a three-week hiatus. The latest season of this beloved Matt Stone and Trey Parker-created sitcom might be taking more weeks than usual between episodes, but the wait is certainly worthwhile.
There is a fine line between absurd and brain-rot humour and the creators might be crossing that fine line with South Park Season 27. After Gen Z's craze with labubus, Episode 6 titled 'Twisted Christian' will delve into the mystery of 6-7, a real meme growing strong among Generation Alpha.
The official synopsis of the episode reads as follows:
As a new craze sweeps through South Park Elementary, the students are forced to attend a presentation on Satanic Numerology and the coming of the Antichrist.
After Cartman's obsession with 6-7 is mistaken for Satanic numerology, he is announced as the antichrist. Is Cartman really possessed?

The '6-7' fever in South Park Season 27 Episode 6
South Park Season 27 might be making its fans wait for new episodes, but they are certainly keeping that wait worthwhile with fresh political jabs and absurd comedy. It looks like Episode 6 titled Twisted Christian has taken things too far and entered the brain-rot category, as the children at South Park Elementary seem to have a mysterious obsession with the numbers 6 and 7 (a phenomenon taking over TikTok and American schools for real).
While the school's staff and parents have no idea what 6-7 is, Cartman and the other children cannot stop themselves from shouting the numbers with delight, accompanied by a ridiculous hand gesture (which is rooted in reality, again!)
Concerned school staff call their parents and inform them that 'Satan numerology' has taken over the kids in South Park Season 27 Episode 6:
“Your students appear to be in some kind of cult involving the number six and seven.”
This statement is followed by Cartman and the other children shouting 6-7 in the school halls.
For anyone above the age of 14 here, the '6-7' phenomenon took over the Internet in early 2025 and became a popular Internet meme on TikTok after Skrilla's song Doot Doot (6 7). The phrase gained further popularity after it was featured on video edits of professional basketball player LaMelo Ball, who is 6 ft 7 in tall.
South Park Season 27 returns with new jabs at Peter Thiel in Episode 6
Trust Parker and Stone to mix brain-rot absurd comedy with political humour, which is exactly what Twisted Christian feels like. The children's weird obsession with 6-7 forces the school to invite Peter Thiel to give a special lecture about the “satanic numerology shit” going on. The teaser features Thiel as he arrives in the school auditorium and begins his lecture with:
“I’m Peter Thiel and I know about the anti-Christ.''
Cartman and the students don't care for his lecture and pay attention only when he says the end of the world will happen in 'six to seven days', as predicted by Revelation '6:7'. The whole sequence is obviously a huge jab at the real tech billionaire who came into the spotlight after his recent lectures on the identity of the antichrist.
South Park Season 27 Episode 6 takes things up a notch when Cartman's absurd obsession with 6-7 has him mistaken for the Antichrist. The sitcom neatly ties this plot thread to Trump's attempts to get his demonic offspring aborted, after he got Satan pregnant in the previous episodes. Could this lead to a team-up between Trump and Theil?
