I just watched the Rifftrax version and I had tears running down my face, of laughter AND misery. GAWLLY this was awful. But somehow they were able to get guest stars who were already established stars or soon to be big stars. So I ask you, which appearance was more embarassing, for us AND the individual?

But somehow they were able to get guest stars who were already established stars or soon to be big stars. So I ask you, which appearance was more embarassing, for us AND the individual? All of them. The drunk/coked-up Fisher, the overly-powdered Hamill, Harrison "only 3 more years still RAIDERS" Ford, and everything else. You know, instead of re-releasing the SW movies every few years on DVD, Lucas should take his yearly budget for LucasFilms, cut a short if substantial slice, and indeed hunt down every bootleg copy of this special and BLAST it into oblivion. I would forgive him for Greedo Shooting First.

Art Carney. This is Ed Norton we're talking about, the iconic comedic genius who worked for the city and later was a co-star in the epic classic Last Action Hero, so was a shame he had to be in something that gets so much hate.
That and I just wanted to talk about Carney for a moment.

I'm just going to say Carrie Fisher because she tried to sing the Star Wars theme song and turn it into a song about Life Day.
But Bea Arthur did sing the Cantina Theme...
And I still can't bear to hear Ford say, "You're like... family to me."

Man gotta go with Carrie here. Not only did she appear in the single worst piece of television know to man, but she was also completly stoned out of her mind while doing so. Second place goes to Hamil who could have very well made his only TV Appearance here, which didn't involve a stupid costume and actually featured his face.

That and I just wanted to talk about Carney for a moment. I'm with you on everything, Dino. I also enjoyed Last Action Hero but for some reason I'm usually alone on that. And I still can't bear to hear Ford say, "You're like... family to me." Remember when Conan O'Brien showed that clip to Ford? Talk about a man absolutely humiliated by a dumb mistake of his. It used to be on Youtube before the NBC/Universal nazis eliminated all the Conan clips as they saw them. The look on Ford's face was priceless when Conan brought it up and after he showed the clip. Also worth mentioning is Diann Carroll. This woman has won a Tony Award, multiple Daytime Emmy Awards, and nominated for an Oscar...and then she shows up on this show to be Itchy's interspecies holographic masturbatory fantasy. Amazing.

While I have to go with Carrie Fisher, I also have to add that being stoned out of your gourd while appearing on that show is completely acceptable. Having to deal with Wookies in Lipstick would almost require it.

Carrie Fisher. You know something is bad when people more fondly remember the lack of sobriety of a major cast member than the actual film.

Having to deal with Wookies in Lipstick would almost require it. Yet, somehow to me a stoned Carrie Fisher is leaps and bounds above an apparently masturbating elderly wookie. Worse, I watched a video of it as a kid with my parents, and THEY got to answer the question of "what's he doing?" from a then five year old.
