South Park's official website will continue to stream the show's back catalogue until season 18 starts this fall, and then will only offer select episodes for free viewing.
Hulu will also make the entire history of the show available for free initially, before transitioning to give Hulu Plus subscribers exclusive access to all 247 episodes when season 18 premieres.
Select episodes will also be made available for free streaming on Hulu at that time.
Parker and Stone said in a joint statement: "South Park has been one of the top 10 most popular shows of all time on the platform.
