channelhopping.onthebox.com ~ Tom Cruise is dubbed a “fudge packer” in the recent South Park 200th episode.
Wednesday night's episode seemed very much about settling old scores with censors and celebrities – particularly Cruise. In 2006, a repeat of an episode making fun of Cruise and Scientology was pulled, reportedly after the powerful actor complained (though the show – titled "Trapped in the Closet" – has aired since). Cruise has already suffered at the hands of the animated series. In 2005 an episode that made references to rumors about Cruise’s sexuality had the actor working in the packaging department of Frederick’s Fudge Factory.
The 200th episode begins with the kids on a school trip to a candy factory, where Stan spots Cruise working on the assembly line. "Tom Cruise is a fudge packer!" he exclaims.
After Stan accidentally insults him with the gay jibe, he and other stars decide to take their revenge on the town. Rob Reiner, Mel Gibson, Kanye West and Oprah Winfrey are among the scores of celebs who decide to take legal action.
The 200th episode, simply named ‘200’, can be viewed at southparkstudios.com
