Jerry to Tom: Scientology's Really Funny
It seems every celeb has acted scared s**tless when asked about wacky Tom Cruise and Scientology -- that is, until Jerry O'Connell came along! Jerry's spoof on FunnyOrDie.com is hi-larious!

1. That was GREAT!! Love the crazy laugh, you nailed it. And the story about the bunny and the apple, made as much sense as Tom's rambling.

2. This is a jewel and should be put in a time vault for safe keeping like a treasure so that the cult can't mess with it. It's like a wake up call for Tom, et .al, that we as a society are on to their destructive, and probably illegal, practices of bringing down anyone that has a less than stellar opinion of their religion and we will no longer tolerate it. Go found a "Jim Jones" colony in some far off place on a lonely continent and leave everyone else alone. If they go after Jerry for this then that is the litmus test for crazy over -the -top Nazi cult behavior because this is a spoof on Tom's behavior more than anything,that's why it's SO freakin' hilarious. Period.

3. I've always kind of disliked Jerry O'Connell because he comes off as arrogant and if I understand correclty a mysoginistic womanizer, BUT I have to give kudos where kudos are due and this is hilarious. He had Tom's voice, mannerisms, and intensity over innocuous stuff down pat. Fabulous. After this, I might just give his shows a chance.

7. Jerry finally put some perspective in all this over the top idolization of these so called "stars". I used to love Tom back in the day- way back...... but now things are just getting out of hand. They are just people...nothing more, nothing less....they are not GOD! So refreshing to see that other actors realize- they are just entertainment...not a way of life for the world. It is so nice to see that other actors realize the irony in being so narcisstic and laugh at what is funny. They put it out there for entertainment....... nothing more- so lets laugh while we have the chance. These days, with all the war, deaths and drugs, we don't have much to laugh about anymore.....Thanks for having the balls...Jerry. Even we hicks down in South Texas are laughing with you! Can I get an AMEN!!!!!?

8. I dare anyone to NOT love this take wonderful take on Tom. Could not have been more tightly done.
I also dare the scien-nazis to try to snatch this off the internet. Even if they do this will leave such a lasting impression that every time I see Tom Cruise I will replace him - or Katie - with this brilliant video.

9. I actually think this is the first blog on TMZ where all bloggers have positve comments. This is history for TMZ..We need more of this. On so many other blogs people either love or hate the person they write about. BUt not this on so I say well done Bloggers on this one.

10. Oh my goodness! Jerry, this is FLAWLESS! Pure genius, I must say.
I absolutely LOVE that you don't care about the ramifications of "Hollywood", but would rather entertain and please your fans. What a perfect job you have done in doing just that. Kudos.

12. You rock, Jerry! The parody on Cruise is undeniably brilliant and you are a major comedic talent! How wonderful to find someone who doesn't give a flip about the arrogant Hollywood status quo; you are my hero!

14. I cannot lie .... this is FUNNY!!!! Jerry you are FUNNY and this skit should be on MAD TV or SNL! I'm sorry but when you watch Tom's video, he is WAY OUT there ... he rambles. So sad that he carries so much weight in Hollywood. You go, Jerry!! From your fans in South Carolina!!!
