I guess I'm in the minority, but I thought that episode was incredibly lame. I realize that it was patched together quickly to capitalize on the momentum, but it was mediocre writing and the jabs at Scientology were not even funny. The whole child molestation thing turned my stomach (except for the scene with Butters, now THAT was funny) and the way they disposed of chef was pitiful considering all of the great moments Isaac Hayes has contributed to the show.
It's even more pathetic after hearing that Hayes didn't even make those remarks to the press. Trey and Matt knew he'd suffered a stroke and should have put two and two together before rushing this episode out like they did. Now whatever relationship they had with Hayes is permanantely ruined and it makes them look like dicks for kicking a guy when he's down.
man that explains everything! I wondered why it took him so long to say something about it! the scientology episode aired nov. and I was like "took him long enough!" What a bunch of brainwashing d**kheads scientologists are!! in that note: I read that a fellow scientologist (young man in his 20's) that has Schizophrenia stabbed his mother (also a believer)to death because he was only taking vitamins to help him with the "disease". shows how much you know TOM!! until you go through what others have to deal with keep your mouth shut!probably going to come after me for those comments! I'm not scared of that big headed shorty that likes it in the a**!!
I liked the episode mostly. JUst liked it though. But the ending made me sad. I mean, I knew he'd probably get killed, but, that was harsh, considering that the revelation that he hadn't quit the show himself came out the day before, you know?
Hey they can still bring Chef back. They killed Kenny a couple hundred times and he's still around. Or if that doesn't work say the ep was a bad dream. Or Chef was a clone that had a speech impediment and the real Chef is being held captive with Katie Holmes in a dungeon.

Thank you, jafo. Yeah, that clip was awful. The screams...awful. The cries of "Ow" as he's rolling down the cliff. Awful. I am deeply, deeply disappointed.
Mormons excommunicate those who refuse to follow along. Scientologists kill those who rock the boat. Mormons believe they are descended from Saints. Scientologists believe they came from frozen volcanoes. Mormons don't drink caffeine, alcohol, or have sex before marriage. Scientologists (despite TomKat's apparent knocked-uppedness) don't believe in sex. Mormons believe the gays should be prayed straight. Scientologists believe that they, along with the psychiatrists, should die. Mormons believe that accumulated worldly wealth is a sign of the favor of God. Scientologists believe that accumulated worldly wealth is a sign that you're not giving enough to the church. Frankly, I'd rather be a Mormon.
I thought this episode was pretty damn funny, a clever way to rip on scientology again, considering that if they mentioned it outright the episode would have never been aired. I was a little shocked by the way he died at first too, but apparently it has something to do with Star Wars? I don't know, they did say at his funeral that you can't be mad at him for leaving but should be mad at the "fruity little club" for brainwashing him to begin with.
"Swimmy Lionni said... How are Scientologists going to milk him for his money when he doesn't have any income? They clearly didn't think this through."
That's a great point. One of nature's first rules is that a parasite should not kill its host.
I don't feel sorry for Hayes. When you appoint a guardian or give someone power of attorney, you authorize that person to speak for you. Poor judgment on his part. If he is against it, he can always make his amends with the show and tell the "church" to F off.
I can't blame South Park .. I do not understand why it took so long for Hayes to come out with the information that he was not the one to originate the termination but someone else ? To come out with it the day before? Something doesn't sound right about it.
I don't blame Matt or Trey. I blame Isaac for getting involved with a cult. See,it's like drugs and cigarettes...you know from the time you are 9 that they are bad but people still use them. Isaac knew he was joing a cult and he made that choice on his own. If they fked with his career well,what did he expect? A group Isaac joined of his own free will fked w/ Matt and Treys show and they fked them back and rightfully so. It's sad all the way around but why should Isaac be let off the hook for his irresponsible choice to join a cult?
I am a little torn here. Though I agree that is was a sort of disrespectful way to deal with Isaac Hayes, I cannot help thinking that someone who believes that a science fiction writer was a prophet deserves what he gets.

Now THAT is how you deal with scientologists! throw them off a cliff, feed them to lions and shoot at them.
Now to do the same to Cruise....

Wow... that's messed up.. so he never quit South Park... but the Scientologists did it for him.
Now that's what you call friendship right there..... *coughs*

I actually have an easier time believing that another Scientologist quit for Isaac Hayes, rather than he issuing that statement himself.
These people are getting out of control, and I honestly think that they are planning something totally weird with TompsychoKat's baby.

Well, can't Isaac just sue the Scientologists? (seriously)...they damaged his career by causing him to lose his job.

nope, you sign a contract when youjoin the chruch, saying they arent repsonsible for anything that happens to you.

As for this episode: funniest South Park ever!

I think scientologists officially scare me more than mormons. And mormons really scare me.
Freaks, all of them.

Kitty. With all due respect, you obviously don't know shit about Mormonism, even though your final thought was correct IMO. Mormons>Scientologists
