The official South Park thread

[Evil Ash]

A thread loooooooong overdue but really needed to be started after tonight's new episode. That may have been the most f'ed up yet completely hillarious episode I've ever seen.

I didn't think it was possible to out due last year's Christmas episode but they did.

Its getting to the point where its hard to believe that they can continue to top themselves yet they do it with regularity.

"Did you really believe God would have sex with a porcupine?"

I'm still in the process of getting tonight's episode, but I have been somewhat disappointed with this season so far. Other than "Up the down steroid" and "Passion of the Jew" season 8 has not produced much.

Season 7 had some great episodes:
Krazy Kripples
Toilet Paper
Fat Butt and Pancake Head
Lil' Crimestoppers
South Park is Gay
Christian Rock Hard
All About the Mormons

Isaac Hayes, in a huff, hangs up Chef's hat

Isaac Hayes says he can't take it anymore. The acknowledged Scientologist says he has watched the hit animated show "South Park," on which he voices the role of Chef, lampoon his religion one too many times.

So on Monday he quit the show.

"There is a place in this world for satire, but there is a time when satire ends and intolerance and bigotry towards religious beliefs of others begins," the 63-year-old soul singer said in a statement. "Religious beliefs are sacred to people and at all times should be respected and honored. As a civil rights activist of the past 40 years, I cannot support a show that disrespects those beliefs and practices." Hayes has played the ladies' man/school cook character in the animated Comedy Central satire since 1997.

"South Park" co-creator Matt Stone told the Associated Press on Monday that he feels Hayes' concern for respecting religious beliefs is being rather narrowly applied. "This is 100 percent having to do with his faith of Scientology," said Stone. "He has no problem -- and he's cashed plenty of checks -- with our show making fun of Christians."

Last November, "South Park" spoofed the Church of Scientology and its celebrity followers, including actors Tom Cruise and John Travolta, in a top-rated episode called "Trapped in the Closet." In the episode, Stan, one of the show's four mischievous fourth graders, is hailed as a reluctant savior by Scientology leaders, while a cartoon Cruise locks himself in a closet and won't come out.

Stone told the AP he and co-creator Trey Parker "never heard a peep out of Isaac in any way until we did Scientology. He wants a different standard for religions other than his own, and to me, that is where intolerance and bigotry begin."

all was fine when it was anything other than scientology... should be all up for grabs not all but mine...

I don't even think this was his decision... that episode is from November as BIM mentioned... CC got a ton of grief from the hollywood elite which I am sure Hayes got a part of as well...

Supposed to re air tonight...

 

[Dback Jon]

Probably was ordered to quit by one of his cult-masters.

 

[Dback Jon]

Did he quit? Or not?

Saw on GMA this morning that Isaac Hayes is denying that he quit South Park.....

For the entire episode of the Scientology "attack".

Hilarious. Commercial free.

Apparently since a SP episode only takes 6 days to produce, they address Chef's departure on this week's season premiere (Wednesday).

Ready, set, TiVo.

A-Bomb

 

[vince56]

The whole "Isaac Hayes leaves South Park in a huff" thing is just to drum up some free publicity for the new season. Nothing more.

 

[nathan]

That Darth Vader thing was hilarious.

I love the pokes at scientology. I wish Matt Stone and Trey Parker ran our country.

'South Park' gives Chef a stirring exit

By DAVID HINCKLEY
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

'South Park' is saying bye, for now, to Chef.

Isaac Hayes' Chef character got the shaft Wednesday night on Comedy Central's "South Park."

Hayes, who had voiced the R-rated character since "South Park" launched in 1997, quit the show March 13 because of what he called its insensitivity toward religious beliefs.

General speculation was that he objected to a November 2005 show called "Trapped in the Closet" that lampooned Tom Cruise and Scientology, in which Hayes is a believer.

South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, conversely, worship at the church of industrial-strength animated satire, not to be confused with Shrek or Dora the Explorer.

(Warning: Spoilers ahead.)

Chef has left South Park to join the Super Adventure Club, which sounds like a harmless travel outfit, but turns out to be an association of pedophiles who say the path to spiritual immortality is cruising the world having sex with young boys.

Chef - who still has Hayes' voice, spliced together from past shows - then returns to the South Park cafeteria, where he tells Kyle, Cartman and the other young boys he wants to have sex with them, and exactly how.

The boys quickly grasp that the Chef they loved has been brainwashed by "this fruity little club." They try to deprogram him by taking him to a strip joint, which works until club members shoot him with tranquilizer darts to haul him back.

The boys spring him once more, but he's torn, and as he walks back over a bridge to the club, it catches fire and breaks.

As Chef plunges down a deep ravine, bouncing off jagged rocks, he's consumed with raging flames. He is impaled as he lands and when wild animals start ripping away his flesh, club members trying to drive them off accidentally pump a couple of bullets into him.

That's gotta hurt.

The South Parkers hold a memorial service at which they say they will remember the good Chef they loved, not the Chef brainwashed by this evil club.

Meanwhile, the club grabs his body and "repairs" it with robot parts, creating a Chef who looks and sounds like Darth Vader.

"It's been left open," said a Comedy Central spokesman, "whether the character could return. If he does, he wouldn't need Hayes' voice anymore."
