No Chef on South Park

Not really a die-hard fan of the series although I do watch once in a while. I like the fact that they pretty much ridicule everything in America, no holds barred. But I am a fan of Isaac Hayes. The guy has been in the forefront of the music business for several decades. You have to admire that. Anyhow, he seems to be really tired these days, because he quit South Park when they lampooned Scientology (he’s a Scientologist). Here’s what the co-creator of the show had to say:

Co-creator Stone said Hayes would be released from his contract and had the best wishes of the South Park team.Stone said: “In 10 years and over 150 episodes of South Park, Isaac never had a problem with the show making fun of Christians, Muslim, Mormons or Jews.

“He got a sudden case of religious sensitivity when it was his religion featured on the show.”

Hmmm…interesting. Because then they go on to make him a paedophile and kill him off, in true South Park style. Those bastards!
