South Park's Chef

[loxxr6]

Well just recently Isaac Hayes who voiced Chef's character decided to leave the show due to a disagreement over Scientology being taken the pi$$ out of on the show. The same episode made fun of Tom Cruise "not coming out of the closest".

Now it seems that the South Park creators have made a special episode for Chef. Read below courtesy of the SMH.

Chef gets true South Park send-off

Isaac Hayes' Chef character got a true South Park send-off - seemingly killed off but mourned as a jolly old guy whose brains were scrambled by the "Super Adventure Club".

The thinly disguised satire continued the show's feud with Scientologists in its 10th season premiere on US pay TV channel Comedy Central.

The soul singer has voiced the Chef character in South Park since 1997, but left recently because of what he called the animated show's religious "intolerance and bigotry".

Founders Matt Stone and Trey Parker said Hayes, a Scientologist, was mad that South Park mocked the religion in an episode last year.

A rerun of that Scientology episode was mysteriously pulled off the air in the US last week amid published reports that actor Tom Cruise, another Scientologist, had used his clout to bury it. A Cruise spokesman denied that.

Hayes did not participate in making the new episode; the character's lines appeared to be patched together through tapes of past dialogue.

Chef repeatedly said he wanted to "make sweet love" to the South Park primary school kids - it seems the "Super Adventure Club" turns its members into child molesters.

The children try to rescue Chef, but in the end he turns to head back to the "Super Adventure Club" - until he falls off a bridge onto rocks, is burned, stabbed and mauled by a mountain lion and bear.

Then he apparently dies.

"A lot of us don't agree with the choices the Chef has made in the last few days," one of the children eulogises him at a funeral. "Some of us feel hurt and confused that he seemed to turn his back on us. But we can't let the events of the past few weeks take away the memories of how Chef made us smile.

"We shouldn't be mad at Chef for leaving us," the eulogy concludes. "We should be mad at that fruity little club for scrambling his brains."

The door for Hayes's return was not completely closed. In the show's final scene, members of the "Super Adventure Club" try to revive Chef, and it is not clear he is really dead.
