Michael Jackson fans have hit out at the creators of South Park - a new episode of the controversial animated series shows their idol living in Purgatory.
Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, David Carradine and Patrick Swayze - who all lost their lives this year (09) - feature in the latest series, entitled I See Dead Celebrities, which depicts the stars waiting to enter heaven.
The King Of Pop's spirit takes control of one of the characters - and the plotline has infuriated fans of the singer, who have slammed creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone for the insensitive storyline.
One Jackson devotee rages, "It's a disgrace. Michael had a hard enough time in life - why can't they let him rest in peace."
