SOUTH PARK LEARNS NOT TO MESS WITH TOM CRUISE

An episode of The Simpsons, "The Seemingly Neverending Story," beat out "Trapped in a Closet," the Tom Cruise/Scientology episode of South Park, to win the Emmy for best animated series. The victory was announced Saturday at the 58th annual Creative Arts Emmy Awards. Accepting the award, Simpsons executive producer Al Jean quipped, "This is what happens when you don't mock Scientology." Cloris Leachman also picked up an Emmy for a guest appearance on Fox's Malcolm in the Middle. It was her eighth win -- the most by any female performer.
