American Idol winner Fantasia Barrino guest voices as a contestant of Krusty's "Li'l Starmaker" talent competition who ends up losing her qualifying round to Lisa, thanks to Homer's new song, but when Lisa fires Homer after he becomes a "stage dad", he decides to help another contestant in the final.

LOL!! Can't wait to hear Homer's song,

I can`t to see this episode tomorrow, especially with Homer as a stage dad.

Add another one to Homer's job list

One of my favorite couch gags - the Get Smart parody.

Poor Milhouse, mocked by Lenny and Carl. That was sort of like the pot calling the kettle black.

Lisa: "I'm talking Springfield, where nobody sucks...except for Flanders"

Hot Rod

Great episode last night. Any Homer and Lisa episode is always fun to watch. Plus it was a great parody of American Idol. Homer`s ruthless actions really showed that he do anything for Lisa.

I loved the beginning when Homer and Apu were whispering back and forth while Snake was robbing the store,

~*OnlyNDreams*~

Loved the American Idol parody, and loved Krusty! When he said that the applause o meter was even crying, and it was actually leaking battery acid,

And when he wanted to get the show over, because he had to go film a bunch of season commentaries but doesn't remember anything,

LOVED when Lenny and Carl were dissing Milhouse, LOL! "Are you the man or the woman?"

And when Homer was driving with the doors wide open and Homer sleeping with his bucket, lol.

Grilka

Or how about the applause-o-meter getting such a huge response that the arrow poked Krusty in the eye

Good episode, I always love the Homer/Lisa eps. And loved seeing Homer as a stage dad Love the part where Lisa wanted a green light and the guy from the top of the booth said that he only had this color and Homer goes and beats him up and then you see the green light

Loved the American Idol parody And loved that song Homer wrote

Also loved when Homer said he wanted Red Wines and was choking that guy with them

~*OnlyNDreams*~

That was funny!! "Ok! I know she's good!"

~*OnlyNDreams*~

The song was great, Homer definitely knows how to work the system!!

Yeah Homer's little hissy fit was hilarious, when he kicked the guy out and said that there were tons of graduates or whoever that would love to kiss his ass, or something like that, LOL

I know I love Homer being the ultimate jerk

I wanted to see this episode so badly, but the weather was really bad Sunday and my power was out all night. It's sounds like a really cute Homer/Lisa episode, too. I swear, things like this always happen when there's something I really want to watch. Oh well, hope they rerun it soon.

ETA: is the song "Mockingbird" that Lisa wanted to sing the Eminem song or something else? Because as much as I love the Eminem song, it doesn't really make sense for Lisa to be singing it.

Grilka

Eminem actually modified the original song.

Hush, little baby, don't say a word,
Mama's going to buy you a mockingbird.

And if that mockingbird don't sing,
Mama's going to buy you a diamond ring.

And if that diamond ring turns brass,
Mama's going to buy you a looking glass.

And if that looking glass gets broke,
Mama's going to buy you a billy goat.

And if that billy goat won't pull,
Mama's going to buy you a cart and bull.

And if that cart and bull turn over,
Mama's going to buy you a dog named Rover.

And if that dog named Rover won't bark,
Mama's going to buy you a horse and cart.

And if that horse and cart fall down,
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town.
