I watched the Chef Aid album special during Comedy Central's South Park marathon Sunday night and it was pretty amusing. It parodied VH-1's Behind The Music series (Behind The Menu). It was a mockumentary on James "Chef" McElroy's career and had interviews with Ozzy Osbourne, Flea, Meat Loaf, Elton John, Ike Turner and others including Isaac Hayes as himself (as well as Chef). I'm not sure if Comedy Central is rebroadcasting this special or not so check your TV listings to see if it's repeated. The album is scheduled for release in November.
Anyone else watch the Chef Aid album special Sunday night?
I have a few pics and sound bytes on my site from it (address below) I'll probably record some more audio tommorrow.

I hated it. It wasn't very funny, and was a blatent plug for the South Park CD. *blech*
I thought it was pretty funny, considering the whole thing was bullshit.

I didn't get to see the special (I was studying instead! ARRRGGGGHHHH!!!! Bad Toni!) but judging from what I read in this post, of course it's a shameless plug for the CD. So was Chef Aid the episode, right?

The album itself reminds me of what MTV did with Beavis & Butt-head. Now you can find that album at the bargin bin. I beleive that's were Chef Aid will wind up in the next few years.

Yes, that's as the episode. Think of it as like "The Making of Chef-AID, the CD", with various singers (presumably who were on the CD, some of which were in the ep), trying to tell about their experiences with Chef while keeping a straight face (some not as well as others), interspersed with clips from that ep.
