While President Trump was holding a press conference at the White House this morning and extolling the AI-related work of Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, Anthropic’s Dario Amodei and SpaceX’s Elon Musk, a promo for tomorrow night’s South Park episode dropped. It was less salutary.

Here’s the logline for Episode 6 of Season 29: “Butters is unhappy with the data centers that the billionaires are building in our backyards.”

The clip opens with an X-Pest exterminator guy ringing the doorbell at Butters’ home.

“I understand you’ve got some billionaires in your back yard,” he says.

“Yeah, there’s more of these stupid billionaires every day!” replies Butters.

The first image from the episode (see it above) shows Butters in what appears to be his back yard with the X-Pest exterminator guy, who has strapped on his tank of poison and has his sprayer wand at the ready.

The topic of data centers is a hot one across the country and especially in Hollywood, where unions and workers worry about job displacement and writers and directors express concern over what it might do to their art.

Among the biggest players in the data center land rush is, of course, Oracle CEO and Paramount-WBD deal financier Larry Ellison. South Park airs on Comedy Central, which is owned by Paramount. As in the past, the show’s creators are seemingly not afraid to bite the hand that feeds them.

Mark Ruffalo and others have decried the introduction of “really profoundly scary technology” into Hollywood and how AI might impact media outlets soon to be owned by Ellison and his son David.

“Larry is a classic Oligarch,” wrote Ruffalo. “They are crushing workers and consolidating the wealth of the world for their own power and concentrated dominance.”

Paramount, for its part, responded by accusing Ruffalo of using “antisemitic tropes” in his argument, especially when linking the Ellisons’ studio acquisition to Oracle’s work with the Israeli military.

Lisa Vanderpump is taking Bravo viewers behind the scenes of the opening of her hotel in Sin City with Vanderpump Rules: Lisa Las Vegas, set to premiere Tuesday, October 20, at 9 p.m. ET.

The three-part event, set to air over two nights, will feature fan favorites joining the celebration, with cameos from Lala Kent, Tom Schwartz, and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Garcelle Beauvais.

Vanderpump teamed up with Caesars Entertainment and is betting big on her most ambitious Vegas venture yet: a namesake hotel. This isn’t just another grand opening; it’s Lisa’s biggest gamble to date and a chance to cement her legacy. With a to-do list longer than the Strip itself, LVP and her A-Team pull back the curtain on what it really takes to get a boutique resort ready for its lavish opening – and VIP check in – Vanderpump style.

Lisa is joined by her husband Ken Todd, daughter Pandora Vanderpump Sabo, longtime business partner Nick Alain and a trusted team of collaborators. Longtime friend Kevin Lee is also back in Lisa’s orbit after a stint working with one of her rivals.

The down-to-the-wire drama wouldn’t be complete without some SURvers lending a helping hand. Natalie Maguire, Venus Binkley, Chris Hahn, Angelica Jensen, Marcus Johnson, and Audrey Lingle take a road trip in support of Lisa.

Vanderpump Rules: Lisa Las Vegas is produced by 32 Flavors, a part of Sony Pictures Television and Evolution Media, an MGM Company. Alex Baskin, Michael Beck, Natalie Neurauter, Brian McCarthy, Brittany Nabors, Barry Poznick, Lisa Vanderpump and Ken Todd executive produce.

Episode Release Guide Schedule

“Part 1: Vegas? That’s Epic, Baby!”
Tuesday, Oct. 20 at 9 p.m. ET/PT
Lisa Vanderpump gets the chance to open up her very own hotel on the Las Vegas Strip, but she and her team feel the pressure as they attempt to check everything off their never-ending to-do list. Walking into the space, everything feels like a construction site and Lisa fears those around her have a lack of urgency. Also on the agenda? Making up with a former friend and reminding her SURvers that photoshoots are work, not play.

“Part 2: If It Was Easy, Everyone Would Do It”
Tuesday, Oct. 20 at 10 p.m. ET/PT
With time running out, Lisa and her team rush to put the finishing touches on the hotel. Guests begin to check in before all the rooms are ready and late deliveries, holes in the ceiling, and complaining guests threaten to derail the opening. At home, Lisa opens up about how her childhood affected her drive to succeed.

“Part 3: Misbehave Accordingly”
Wednesday, Oct. 21 at 9 p.m. ET/PT
Lisa Vanderpump has opened 39 restaurants and now finally, her very own hotel. With celebrity guests arriving in droves to celebrate the grand opening party, excitement is at an all-time high, but so are the expectations. Lisa only gets one chance to make a lasting first impression and the pressure is on for The Vanderpump Hotel to keep the momentum going long after the party ends.

September brought a rash of film festivals (well, maybe “rash” is the wrong word; that sounds like a skin condition. How about a “slew” instead?). In any case, it was one film festival after another this month, beginning with Venice, continuing with Telluride, then Toronto, and for documentary lovers, the Camden International Film Festival in Maine.

Deadline’s Doc Talk podcast team packed up the recording equipment and headed into the field to report from the North American fests. On the latest edition of the show, we bring you a selection of our interviews, including with two-time Oscar-winning filmmaker Barbara Kopple, director of Union Town. She premiered that film in Venice, then hopped the pond for Toronto before heading to Camden for her U.S. premiere. Kopple tells us why stories about working-class Americans have fascinated her going back to the landmark Harlan County U.S.A. 50 years ago.

Director James Marcus Haney tells us about his film Black Sunflowers, executive produced by Sean Penn, which premiered at TIFF. We also speak with two of his protagonists, young Ukrainian women whose lives have been dramatically impacted by Russia’s war of aggression on their country. The documentary explores how many young Ukrainians feel compelled, in the absence of a secure future, to seek out adrenaline-fueled experiences like street racing and wild ragers.

Another documentary hosting its world premiere in Toronto is Edward Said: Between Worlds, an examination of the titular Palestinian scholar and activist who became a leading advocate for the Palestinian cause from his base in academia in the U.S. Director Maiken Baird, producer Sarah Mowaswes and consulting producer Najla Said (Said’s daughter) join us to reflect on a man who advocated late in his life for a one-state solution, that is, a model for Israelis and Palestinians to live in peace in a secular democracy.

In Camden, we also got to speak with the leaders of that festival: Points North Institute executive director Elise McCave and PNI’s artistic director Sean Flynn (PNI is the nonprofit that puts on CIFF). They address the challenges facing the documentary field, which have intensified with the loss of funding for public media under the second Trump administration. They also share their reaction to the success of To Hold a Mountain, the Sundance-winning documentary that gained critical support through the Points North Institute’s Dianne Weyermann Fellowship, named for the late Participant Media executive and champion of independent documentaries.

That’s on the new episode of Doc Talk hosted by Oscar winner John Ridley (12 Years a Slave, Shirley) and Matt Carey, Deadline’s senior documentary editor. The pod is a production of Deadline and Ridley’s Nō Studios.
