The cool thing about South Park is how fast they can pull out an episode, in DAYS.

What was the premise of this "Chef" episode? Who was voicing him?
“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering

Yeah, Ric, the turnaround can be lightning fast. I can't remember the specific episodes, but there've been a few cases where they wrote and recorded the show on Tuesday night.

As for the premise: "Previously on South Park" (in a nonexistent episode), Chef decides he's bored and needs more excitement in his life. He sees a brochure for Super Adventure Club and thinks traveling to exotic locales all around the world sounds like tons of fun. He boards the club's DC-8 and flies off into the sunset. Then on Part 2 of "Life without Chef," Mr. McAvoy comes back home to the elation of the entire town. But people quickly notice that Chef ain't quite right, with a heretofore unseen desire to make sweet love to the children's rectums. The boys determine that he's been brainwashed by "that fruity little club" and set out to save him. Much hilarity and thinly-veiled slaps at Scientology ensue.

Chef's voice for this episode was cobbled together from dialogue recordings from the previous seasons. There are several instances where, in the course of a single sentence, he will go from a normal speaking voice to a few words of song to a shout. At the very end, his voice is suppllied by Peter Serafinowicz, who was the voice of Darth Maul.

They estimate average turnaround on an episode to be 8 days.

I think Jaster Mareel and I are the only ones who didn't think it was all that great an episode. More disturbing than anything. I don't consider myself prudish in any way (those of you who really know me know better than to think that), but it was just strange and stupid. I think my jaw dropped almost as many times as the children in the episode and I was in just as much stunned silence.

Is there any way to get a link so I can watch this and put my 2 cents in?

Watched it again last night and laughed myself silly again. The ending is just beautiful.

"By salty chocolate balls you mean ... candy?"
"No. My balls."

I wonder if Isaac watched it. I wonder if his "minder" allowed him to for that matter.

OK I've seen it, and if Isaac Hayes has seen this too, he must be feeling pretty bad right now.

From IMDB:

Tom Cruise has hit out at reports he has bought an adult pacifier to keep fiancee Katie Holmes quiet during childbirth. The heavily pregnant actress plans to adhere to strict Scientology rules and give birth without screaming, crying or making loud noises, and Star magazine insisted Cruise would help by providing a specially designed device to bite. A source tell the magazine, "He commissioned an adult-sized 'binky' for her to clench between her teeth, hoping that it'll squelch her screams. In keeping with a Scientology silent birth, Tom is prepared to do whatever it takes to muffle Katie's moans and groans during the delivery." Cruise's publicist Arnold Robinson has dismissed the reports as nonsense. On Tuesday fellow Scientologist John Travolta lent his support to the controversial birth plans.

I read about this 'silent birth' crap yesterday. Katie Holmes is an idiot for agreeing to take part in these rules for childbirth.
I cannot believe that this so-called religion has so much sway that they have not completely brought on their own demise the world over. IT IS CRAZY. What a dumb belief system.
Matt and Trey seem to be the only people at Viacom with any balls. Too bad they can't make an episode about how much MTv has sucked and continues to get suckier every moment it remains airing. Why does Viacom air crap that nobody but morons want to watch? I think Viacom and Scientology are two amongst the greatest evils in America and the world at large. **** both of them. They need to be obliterated.
I've never been a fan of Tom Cruise's per se, but I didn't dislike him either, I guess. From now on though, I am going to actively avoid anything he or Katie Holmes has to do with. He is nuttier than a walnut orchard at harvest time.

Uh... she is marrying Tom Cruise. Millions of dollars and fame. All she has to do is to put up with this scam of a religion.

I said it before and I'll say it again. I predict she's going to make a run for it before the child comes. The trick is to escape both the body guards and the "minders" assigned to her from the Church of Scientology. You know she's not free to leave of her own will at this point, and will only be able to do so if she's either clever enough to escape or is "kidnapped" by her own family. I understand they've been trying to get her to leave him and have the child back at home with them.

Maybe with Tommy's high profile she'll give birth to that idiot LRH's reincarnation of the anti-christ alien reject. He never should have jumped up and down on that couch. It will be the downfall of those crackpots.

Odds are, Tom Cruise is using L. Ron Hubbard's frozen sperm in order to generate a hair to his Messiah.

I just saw the episode of South Park on comedy central about Cartman trying to pull Family Guy with the uncensored Muhammed. But at the moment Muhammed was supposed to come in view the screen turned black and a message appeared saying something like "Muhammed is seen handing the salmen helmet to..." & "comedy central removed...". So I'm wondering, did Comedy central decide to not show Muhammed or is this part of the original South Park episode?

I do know it's against the rules of Islam to portray their great prophet using any visual representation. That would be an image for idol worship apparently.

We'll probably have to wait for the Season Ten DVD set (is it out yet?) to know for sure whether Comedy Central cut it or it was just part of the joke.
