Digman! fans will have to wait an extra two weeks for the show’s return, as Comedy Central has shifted its Season 2 premiere to July 23, mirroring the rescheduled launch of South Park Season 27.
Initially planned for July 9, the delay is part of a broader network decision to synchronize the premieres of its flagship animated series. The move follows internal disruptions attributed to the Skydance-Paramount merger, which has reportedly caused friction behind the scenes.
While Andy Samberg and Neil Campbell—co-creators of Digman!—have not addressed the change publicly, South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone expressed open frustration. In a candid statement, they criticized the merger for delaying their show’s rollout and voiced concern about the broader impact on production.
Meanwhile, Digman! Season 2 is still shaping up to be a high-energy follow-up. Alongside Samberg, returning cast members include Mitra Jouhari, Melissa Fumero, and Tim Meadows. The season also showcases an impressive guest voice roster, featuring Beck Bennett, Tatiana Maslany, Artemis Pebdani, and John Waters.
The extended voice lineup includes fan favorites such as Mark Hamill, Kate Winslet, Seth Meyers, and Rachel Kaly, promising a diverse range of cameos and characters across the season.
Despite the delay, Comedy Central has continued its promotional efforts, signaling confidence in the show’s second season. Viewers can expect Digman! to return with its signature blend of irreverent humor, eccentric adventures, and top-tier voice talent—just two weeks later than expected.
