The spooky season is upon us, so we thought we'd get a routine soul smear and go back to revisit some classic Treehouse Of Horror with "The Thing and I", "The Genesis Tub" and "Citizen Kang"! So much to love in what's a great blend of horror without any true gore. We also discuss lizard people, "Basket Case", where the Toth Fairy prefers to collect…

Simpsons Did It! Simpsons Did It! Yes that's right we've finally reached the (somewhat) crossover episode between The Simpsons and South Park, where Professor Chaos struggles to come up with an original idea that our favourite four-fingered family haven't already done. Meanwhile, Cartman steals Lisa's idea from "The Genesis Tub", which she stole fr…

Yeah this one right here goes out to all the baby's mamas, mamas..since unfortunately we bid farewell to Mona Simpson! Yes it's the end of Mona's arc as Homer finally bids a permanent farewell to his mother, not before she asks one last rebellious favour of him!A nice twist on the "Homer's mother returns" story, where she may pass away in the first…

The following podcast is brought to you by ChalmSkinn productions. Well, at least we wish it was. What a fun episode! As movie nerds, this especially hits a home as it pokes fun at the Sundance Film Festival, along with the "festival hype" in general. Not only that, we get a genuinely lovely and heartwarming story of Lisa learning to aprpeciate her…

This one's for the outcasts! We've all had enough of Butters and he feels the same, so he's now created the alter ego...Professor Chaos! As a result, the boys must now take auditions to find the new fourth member of their group. We also discuss how to cook a good crumpet, Guy's favourite new reality show and more. Support our show for EARLY & AD-FR…

What a sweet episode! Bart becomes attached to a calf and attempts to save him from slaughter. In all honesty, this handled the subject of "meat eating" in a far superior way then South Park did for "Fun With Veal". We also discuss "Super Simpsons Weekends" marathons, our love of banana bread, Ladbrokes and more. Support the Four Finger Discount Ne…

It's time to go fightin' around the world with Russell Crowe! This episode was an absolute ball of nostalgia, not just due to the appearance of Russell Crowe, but also the idea of doing all you can to NOT miss a new movie trailer. Those were the days! We also discuss the joys of movie nights, having a "row", why TVs never look as clear at home as t…

"First you get the podcast, then you get the power, then you get the women." That's right, this week we revisited "Lisa's Rival", famous for not only Winona Ryder's appearance as Alison Taylor, but it's also when Homer finds Hans Moleman's jackknifed sugar truck! We also discuss finding porn in the woods, piercing our ears, our love for Miss Hoover…

The boys take 23 "tortured baby cows" hostage in Stan's room in order to rescue them from slaughter. A fun take on the issue of eating meat, especially with the special appearance from Michael Dorn as Worf (in full make-up). We also discuss our favourite pizza toppings, tricking kids into eating cheap nuggets and more. Support our show for EARLY & …

Lurleen Lumpkin is back! Except this time she doesn't want to bunk with Homer, she's reuniting with her deadbeat father, 'cause that always goes well. This was actually a lovely sequel to "Colonel Homer", with Marge helping Lurleen realise that SHE is in control of her own success, not the men in her life. Plus we get a pretty terrific guest appear…

We reviewed "Freak Strike" because "WHATEVA! WE DO WHAT WE WANT!" Honestly, one of the funniest episodes of South Park to date. Butters with the freaks gets a bit "whateva" by the end, however Cartman going on The Maury Povich Show is peak South Park. We also discuss fixing Star Wars, Oprah's gifts as well as Guy's love of a good sandwich. Support …

After joinging a ballet class, Lisa becomes addicted to second-hand smoke in order to help her "focus". Meanwhile, Homer rages war with a family of raccoons who keep stealing his jerky. A pretty solid episode! Support the Four Finger Discount Network for EARLY & AD-FREE access to every show we produce, as well as 100 hours of exclusive content! Joi…

What better way to celebrate our review of "Asspen" than with a MONTAGE! Legitimately one of the funniest South Park episodes of all time, which sees the boys and their parents take a trip to Asspen to check out a timeshare community. We also discuss the best excuses to get away from salespeople, the iconic "Red Frog Crew" from Dando's schoolies tr…

It's another murder mystery! This time our dear pal Martin Prince is the victim in question...or is he? Honestly, a perfectly fine episode where logic kinda falls apart at the end. The "Sneaker" parody was a nice throwback though. We also discuss the genius songwriting of the Black Eyed Peas, our fear of Komodo Dragons, the dial-up internet sound a…

If there's one sure way to ensure you enjoy this podcast, it's by having aides! A fun opener for the sixth season that pokes fun at Subway's use of Jared Fogle (yikes), as well the introduction of City Wok! We also discuss Guy's "Grimace" cosplay, the joys of gaining weight and more. Support our show for EARLY & AD-FREE access to every show we prod…

You'll really taste the blue when you listen to our review of "The Debarted", a fun parody of "The Departed" that sees Topher Grace star as Donnie, the new kid at school who isn't all that he seems. We also discuss getting dementia, abusive teachers, "wet dream tomato" and more! Support the Four Finger Discount Network for EARLY & AD-FREE access to…

It's that time of year again! We've made it all the way through Season 5 of South Park, so now we're gonna run through what we thought were the Top 10 episodes. This was without a doubt the most consistent season to date with so many great episodes! What were your favourites? Support our show for EARLY & AD-FREE access to every show we produce, as …

If you don't listen to our review of "Mountain Of Madness", we'll be sure to kick you in your boney, old behind!An absolutely fantastic episode which sees the Power Plant workers go on a teamwork retreat in the mountains. We also discuss NOT watching the Olympics, the fear of being hypnotised, our least favourite Simpsons "golden era" episode and m…

Who's the pod that can make you laugh at a storm cloud? Turn a frown into a smile for free? Who's the host with a heart full of magic? Everyone knows it's Dando! (and Guy) A pretty insane episode that sees Butter's mother try to murder him after she learns her husband has been sleeping with men on the side. It feels like a tool to establish Butters…

This podcast is BOLLOCKS! Well, maybe not the podcast, however the episode we reviewed certainly is. Dando sums it up as "inoffensive, yet forgettable", which is about all there is to say. Honestly there were a few funny gags throughout (including a Disney reference that's certainly NOT aged well) but for the most part it's just another "Simpsons r…

Kenny can't die! He's our f-f-f-f-FRIEND! An "very special" episode that pokes fun at "very special" episodes by having the town react to the death of Kenny...who could've seen that coming?! Meanwhile, Cartman because a fetus salesman, who in the heat of the moment, decides to try and get congress to approve stem-cell research. Support our show for…

Simpsons showrunner Matt Selman joins Dando to discuss a Bluey/Simpsons crossover, the potential idea for a Simpsons movie sequel, Season 36 news and more. Plus they do a deep dive on the "That 90s Show", the most divisive episode Matt has ever written. SADGASM fans unite! Support the Four Finger Discount Network for EARLY & AD-FREE access to every…

It's the one everyone hates apparently, although we're not too sure why, 'cause we loved it. A really fun throwback to the 90s which although at times felt a little on the nose, was actually an enjoyable teen-comedy-style story that felt straight out of 1997. Plus, the Sadgasm songs were also actually pretty great? As a big Nirvana fan, Dando in pa…

Are you a richer? If so, keep your kids away from our pure non-rich kids! Seriously though, another hilarious episode that puts the spotlight on racism and class inequality in a way on Parker and Stone can. Here we have Tolkien (aka Token) convince a bunch of rich celebrities to move to South Park so that he no longer feels like the odd one out. We…

Legendary Simpsons writer/producer joins Dando this week to discuss the upcoming Season 36, (including some fun exclusives), his first day on the job, the comparisons with working on "The Simpsons" & "F is for Family" and more.

Let's not sugarcoat things, this episode was a disaster. A nonsensical politically-charged story that feels extremely dated in 2024, along with one of the most confusing "endings" (if you can call it that) of all time. Apparently Ralph has been disguising his intelligence for 15 years since "I Love Lisa", as he now plans to run for president and ma…

Cousin Kyle has arrived and whilst Kyle #2 was not impressed, we were ecstatic! Two great stories here, the first of course being the introduction of Cousin Kyle and his many concerns for his own well-being. Then of course we get Mr. Garrison creating a new form of transport to get back at the airlines. So much to love. Support our show for EARLY &…

Originally recorded two years ago, this PATREON EXCLUSIVE review is now available for FREE for the first time.

Cartman loses his sense of humour after meeting the Thompsons. Did you know they had buttocks where their faces should be? Honestly, the moment where Cartman meets them may be one of Dando's favourite all-time moments, even if they "fart lisp" gag got a little old by the end of the episode. We also discuss Elliott's 6th birthday and his "pyjamas fa…

It was the first post-911 episode of South Park and boy was it a doozy. The sheer bravado of Parker and Stone is on full display here in the form of satire which, although may not be as relevant now as it was in 2001, is the perfect example of what separates South Park from the rest. Essentially it sees the boys accidentally sent to Afghanistan, wh…

Without a doubt the best episode of the season so far, a fun mystery story which sees Homer try to retrace his steps from the night before. We also discuss whether Al Jean was correct in saying this could have been the series finale, the latest Tenacious D controversy, Elliott's 6th birthday present letdown and more! Support the Four Finger Discoun…

If you're a "bad widdle boy" then you're gonna love our review of 'Krusty Get Kancelled', an absolute all-timer.

Wanna get high? Let's be honest, Towelie may be a shit character but he may just be Guy's spirit animal. A real fun spoof of 80/90s action plot twists/cliches, as well as merchandise-driven characters. You're sure to have a blast with our review, so don't forget to bring a towel! Support our show for EARLY & AD-FREE access to every show we produce,…

Sideshow Bob is back! This time he may have his most convoluted (and unneccsary) scheme ever to kill Bart. Seriously, the whole first half feels pointless by the end. Luckily we get a Frasier reunion, even though you wouldn't really know it from this. Felt like a wasted opportunity with a guest star (again). We also discuss eating ribs, buying chea…
  continue reading
 
It's time for sex-education, brought to you by your pals Guy and Dando! Granted, we may not be as learned as Mr. Garrison when it comes to sexual positions, although who is? This episode sees the children of South Park learn about sex and all the horrifying repercussions that come with it, resulting in a hilarious Mad Max 2 parody. Meanwhile, Mr. M…
