MTV Networks has announced plans to make every clip from every episode of South Park available for free online next year.

Contrary to popular belief, offering versions of TV shows online has not hurt television ratings, and may have actually helped. “One does not diminish the other by any stretch of the imagination. That is kind of our hat trick,” said MTV Networks chairman and CEO Judy McGrath.

In August, Comedy Central signed a deal with South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker, and agreed to spread South Park materials across the Web, on mobile phones and video games.
