This week's episode (tomorrow) is supposed to address all of the recent events. As they've done in the past, they put this together in about one week. Should be a good one.

Also read that it was Chef's handlers that made the decision for him to quit.

There's some new info.

[* I can't resist! *]

just a FRiendly FReeper clarification

tenement = A rundown , low-rent apartment building

tenet = An opinion , doctrine , or principle held as being true by a person or especially by an organization

Internet bloggers accused Cruise of threatening to not promote "Mission Impossible 3," a surefire summer blockbuster, if the offending episode ran.

Where did the studio get their agents and lawyers when time came to negotiate his contract? The monkey house at the zoo??

Maybe Scientology is a low rent religion? Most members I knew lived in really cheap housing, so they could put more money on 'The Bridge'...

Scientology: the religion invented to make Jehovah's Witnesses feel superior to something.

I am sure scientology is nonsense but they are a pretty easy target. If South Park really wants to show a little courage, let them ridicule Islam.

thanks for the info. At face value, Scientology would seem fairly harmless. Until one digs deeper, it appears...

Attacking Saddam and Osama is about as safe as it gets. Lets see them do one on Muhammmed.

Maybe they have, I don't watch it very often.
