The Star Wars Holiday Special

For the first time since November 17th, 1978, I just watched "The Star Wars Holiday Special". It has to be the worst production I have ever seen in my life.

I have always wondered at what point George Lucas went crazy. I think the aforementioned date is my answer.

Outside of the introduction of Boba Fett, in a pretty good animated section of the special, the rest of the show is awful!

A cast of Wookies, a show stopping number by Bea Arthur, Harvey Korman in drag (with four arms), Mark Hamil will too much make-up on, Art Carney, finale song sung by Carrie Fisher...

Oy vey.

Oh yes, I forgot to mention, yesterday was the 28th anniversary of the special. Happy Life Day!
