Yeah, it's in response to Isaac Hayes' comments and departure. While i agree with the creators' calling him on his hipocracy (e.g. they can make fun of other religions, but not scientology), the send-off Chef got struck me more as mean-spirited than funny.
i don't want to spoil it for you, but i think last season's Scientology episode did a better, more clever job than the premier with Chef leaving.
