Posted: Thu Mar 23, 2006 2:11 pm Post subject: South Park vs. Isaac Hayes |
|
|
Has anybody else heard about what's going on with this issue. It's getting a considerable amount of press. If you haven't I'll try to sum it up from what I've heard.
South Park is a show that is notorious for bashing people's religions, cultures, basically bashing everyone's beliefs. Recently they made an episode about the new religious phenomenon, Scientology. The episode is a satire on the whole concept of scientology and the people who support it (noteably Tom Cruise and John Travolta).
Isaac Hayes, better known as 'Chef' from the show, is infact a scientologist who took offense to this particular episode. This boiled up to him walking out on the show's writers/makers, Trey Stone and Matt Parker. The problem didn't end there though, Isaac then protested the show and attempted to get the episode banned from television.
Yesterday, a new episode of South Park aired in which Chef is killed off after he joins an adventure club and desertes the town. The episode is an obvious satire of what happened behind the scenes, as it ends off with one of the characters saying: "We can't be mad at chef for deserting us, for who we should be mad at is the stupid, fruity club that scrambled his brains."
I don't know if there are any South Park fans here, but do you think this was justified, or is the whole Scientology thing is getting a little out of hand? _________________

Now that I think about it. That guy really has some nerve. It's perfectly ok for him to be on a show that bashes religions constantly but when his beliefs are attacked, he has to complain and quit. _________________

I just saw that episode where Chef leaves and all. The ending is something Star Wars fans will enjoy  _________________

WTF, I cant beleive he did that. Thats some bull right there, I mean, it's pretty unfair to us. Now we need older southparks for some good chef action. _________________
