Description: Moe discovers his talent for crushing dreams in “Judge Me Tender,” but does his trip to the American Idol judging panel actually produce any laughs?Guy and Dando review the Season 21 finale, debating its parade of celebrity cameos, the painfully obvious Fox cross-promotion and whether Simon Cowell at least deserves credit for playing the villain.They also look back at Ellen DeGeneres’ surprising stint on American Idol, question the show’s overly reliant sign gags, unpack Homer and Marge’s underdeveloped B-story, and pitch an alternate story in which Moe becomes a professional heckler.Plus, they also discuss what happened to Simon Cowell's face, whether dogs understand humans, the secret to a tradie's quote and more.Support the show on Patreon at patreon.com/fourfingerdiscountListen on Spotify - spoti.fi/4fDcSY0Listen on Apple Podcasts - apple.co/4dgpW3ZCHECK OUT OUR OTHER PODCASTS:Goin' Down To South Park - spreaker.com/show/goin-down-to-south-parkThe Movie Guide with Maltin & Davis - themovieguidepodcast.comThe One About Friends - spreaker.com/show/the-one-about-friends-podcastTalking Seinfeld - spreaker.com/show/talking-seinfeldSpeaKing Of The Hill - spreaker.com/show/speaking-of-the-hill-a-king-of-the-hill-The Office Talk - spreaker.com/show/the-office-talk-podcastBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/four-finger-discount-simpsons-podcast--5828977/support.
