Isaac Hayes Quits South Park
Isaac Hayes, a 63 year old practising Scientologist, has quit South Park due to the “inappropriate ridicule” of religion that is appearing in the show. The big question on everyone’s lips is: what are Trey Parker and Matt Stone going to do about Chef? As far as I see it, they can either replace Hayes with Juan Nelson (of Innocent Criminals fame), or kill off Chef and bring in a new cafeteria lady played by Whoopi Goldberg. I’m all in favour of option 2, but only time will tell. I haven’t really watched the show since about season 4 or so, but I still enjoy the occasional odd episode. If Whoopi comes on board, I might turn it on more regularly.

If I know South Park, they’ll do another episode on Scientology, trashing Chef pretty brutally. If he can’t take it, he shouldn’t have dished it out all those years.
