I asked these two questions before but it's been a long while since I came back, so I can't find the topics and now I need to ask again.
The Return of Chef: Did Isaac Hayes really get pissed off at the creators and skip out on being Chef from now on?? Is he gone forever?
Cartoon Wars: When they were gonna show Muhammad at the end of the episode and then that disclaimer appeared stating Comedy Central will not show an image of Muhammad, was that for real or what? Cuz if it was, I've just lost alot of faith in the network.

Dunno about Muhammad,but Isaac Hayes got pissed,cause of episode "Trapped In The Closet",where they made fun of scientology,and Isaac was a scientologist.
they make fun about everybody so wats the problem
Dunno, but the Muslim's on that episode must've been some real dumbasses. They didn't even show the pic of Mohamed, so why did they bother? And that was one shit retaliation. Just a few Americans, and Jesus, shitting on each other. That must've hurt!
NOT!
NOT!
That's what I heard about Isaac Hayes too, and I saw on Wiki what Trey said in return:
"We're going, That's fucked up. And hearing other people say, 'You can't do that,' — you can only say 'You can't do that' so many times to Matt and me before we're gonna do it. Finally, we just had to tell Isaac, 'Dude, we totally love working with you, and this is nothing personal, it's just we're South Park, and if we don't do this, we're belittling everything else we've ripped on."
I don't know about Muhammed, I actually wondered about that too. I thought, "Dude, is that part of the joke, or are they trying to avoid getting a load of shit for it?" You're right, I was a bit pissed off that they bowed down to pressure like that. They just let Isaac Hayes and Tom Cruise and all the other Scientologists go "fudge" themselves, so why can't they do the same here? Sometimes I wonder who's the worst for getting sand in their vagina over stuff: Scientology or Al Qaeda.
Maybe Trey and Matt actually did the scene and all that, but Comedy Central just took it out. This would be because it was the actual image that would cause offense, as opposed to the subject matter, so Trapped in the Closet would be left untampered-with, but Cartoon Wars had to be changed.

My guess: Comedy Central removed the image of Muhhamed.
As far as Isaac Hayes goes; it just shows you how big headed people can get, and i'll explain.
Think of it this way, Mr. Hayes had 10, count them 10 solid years of work with Matt and Trey. In todays entertainment industry, longevity and job security do not come often. (I would have kept my job as Chef) They made fun of hundreds of people, situations and other celebrity's, all the while Mr. Hayes could dish it out, but when they hit something close to home, he couldn't take it. Really sad when you think about it.
So offically and on record -- screw you Isaac Hayes
