South Park won't out Tom Cruise in Britain

The British won't get to see the infamous episode of South Park, which outted Tom Cruise something like 13 times in 22 minutes. Cruise, who has a crazy fear about people thinking he's gay, complained about the episode to Paramount and the production company agreed not to play it again. According to The Register in the U.K., Paramount got worried that Cruise would sue them, as he has sued so many tabloids in the past whenever they 'out' him.

The episode in question aired November 16th here in the states. It featured Nicole Kidman and John Travolta characters who kept pleading for Tom to "come out of the closet." At one point, Kidman's cartoon character says, "Don't you think this has gone on long enough? You're not fooling anyone." It really was a funny episode and I'm sad that our friends in Britain won't see it but I'm sure if you scour the internet hard enough, you'll find it.

Its the 1st news that I have that South Park continues in other countries, for example in Spain we suffered the repetition of old episodes and its something quite boring.

Has anyone seen "R. Kelly: Trapped in the Closet"? I guess that's what all that closet singing madness was all based on. I've been trying to Netflix it but it's got a very long wait.
