In reply to Komodo Dragon. Hmmm... Who's the leader of the cult that's bad for you and me? M-I-S-C-A-V-I-G-E You know, that might just work.

In reply to Alcoboy. How about The Mickey Squirrel Club show. A group of never-in kids explaining to second/third generation in kids why Scientology does not offer what is promised and how dangerous and damaging the cult really in. Explanations done in skit format with singing and dancing.

In reply to unelectedfloofgoofer. Great! Let's add it to the lineup. Okay. More ideas for our new station WWSP.

In reply to Alcoboy. The Xenu-Files? They visit a different volcano every week.

I don’t have DirecTV but was at a hotel over the holidays that did, and I stumbled across the Scientology Channel. Watched about 10 minutes of a program that featured teasers on a course of how to help heal injuries and ailments, and another about helping people overcome addictions. Honestly, it was the most ridiculous information I’ve ever heard. You couldn’t have made a parody video and had it look any more ridiculous. There are probably 100s of infomercials with more credible content than this.

Screw Scientology! I say we start our own TV station called WWSP and really stick it to Miscavige! In addition to reruns of Leah’s show we could produce the following:
THE BEVERLY SQUIRRELBILLIES-A family of West Virginians become mission holders but keep misapplying the tech with hilarious results.
GILLIGAN’S SEA ORG BERTHING-Danny Gilligan is conned into joining the Sea Org but his clumsiness and failure to follow directions land him in the RPF. Tune in to see comedy, laughter and rice and beans.
LOGAN’S HEROES-Captain Spencer Logan, United States Army and several loyal enlisted soldiers, infiltrate the Sea Org to help the disillusioned escape to the Aftermath Foundation as well as to find an opportunity to apprehend the corrupt and evil COB RTC David Miscavige. Logan’s comical interactions with inept ED Midshipman Jason Clink are an essential feature of the show.
And that’s just me getting started.
Any other ideas?

In reply to PeaceMaker. Too bad Ron Sr. is no longer with us as he could confirm that statement about the Miscavige name. Or maybe Ronnie might know something. Well, we sure ain't going to find out from the Dwarfenfuhrer himself!

In reply to Mike Rinder. Myszkiewicz is given as the original Polish spelling of the name Miscavige, so the Ukrainian variant used by Poland's neighbors would actually be closer to the original. Presumably the spelling was anglicized when Miscavige's forebears moved to the US, perhaps in the sort of changes that happened at Ellis Island.

I wonder if the CofS is paying less to DirecTV due to the collapse in viewership of the broadcast service, down almost 50% in the last 7 years and so probably about a third since the Scientology “network” began. If they negotiated or were given lower rates, they may have felt they had money in their budget to spend to find new broadcast outlets that would keep up the number of viewers they can claim to reach – whatever little good that does them, except of course for internal PR.

It is sort of ironic that the CofS got onboard the sinking ship of a lumbering old corporate entity that has misjudged and mismanaged things, and is probably on its way to going out of business….

In reply to Dave Fagen. It is how they spell his name in Ukraine apparently.
