You guys have no idea how horrible this thing actually is. Me and my bro forced my folks to sit through this crap when it was first broadcast, as we only had one television in the house. At the end of it all, I, a wee little kid at the time, turned to my folks and apologized for making them sit through that crap. And I didn't even realize that Carrie Fisher was all coked up during her appearance.

For those that have not seen it play the below video over and over again for about 2 hours and then you we know what it was like for people watching this in 1978:

Even though I knew it was bad, I just watched the entire Star Wars Holiday Special. Dear God, it was atrocious. The only saving grace was watching 70's TV commercials. Reggie Jackson candy FTW.

Is Lumpy the one who becomes a Jedi? Or is it another kid of Chewie? That's Lowie, Chewbacca's nephew. He's not mentioned much these days since Lucas decided out of the blue that Wookiees can't be Jedi. Consistency much? Not in a GFFA. What was the reason for this decision?

My two favorite parts, other than Santa Christ who freaking rocks, were
"Where's the instruction video for how to make a CHRISTMAS SPECIAL!"
and, because it sums up the movie so well
"This is just a Holocaust of wrong"

;D The review itself was great as always, of course. ... but, that show was snorking horrible... I feel bad for Doug and his brother for having to torture themselves with this abomination. I almost had an aneurysm during that horrific "Stir, whip, stir, whip, whip, whip, stir." scene. I can't image what they were thinking when watching this mess. Stir whip stir whip whip whip stir, stir whip stir whip whip whip stir ;D

Okay, who thought it would be a good idea to give Grandpa Wookiee a sex machine?

What was the reason for this decision? No one has any idea and it's not like there are alot of Wookie JEdi, just a few. And it pissed people off because Lowbacca had a pretty large fanbase. And now that I think about it, pretty much the whole Young Jedi Crew got bad ends. Lowbacca has vanished, Anakin is dead, Jacen went Sith and died, Jania had to kill Jacen, and Tenel Ka lost her arm and husband *Jacen*.

Yeah, from what I hear they handed the series over to another author (or possibly group of authors) and they proceeded to basically defecate on the series. I mean more so then the prequels did. The prequels after all were merely underwhelming, the stuff in the new books was absolutely horrible by all accounts.

Don't forget about the Wookiee Jedi Master from Jedi Council: Acts of War, Tyvrook or whatever his name. Hasbro has actually been banned from making a figure of him because of the "No-Jedi-Wookiee" ban.

Thankfully the comics are good.

I know I sound ungrateful, but honestly that seemed like NC wasn't even trying. Most of it was him dissing Harvey Korman, the rest was just him saying "bored!"
