I like to watch it this time of year too. Funny how it is associated with Christmas since it aired during Thanksgiving.

And watching it may just become a new holiday tradition.

I know it has for me.

There might be some clips on youtube but the dude who is blogging about it has the entire video posted. Be forwarned though....it is EXCRUTIATINGLY BAD! Worse than if they made a 2 hour movie about Jar-Jar and Ahsoka talking about what they like to do in their spare time!

No offence dude but, the only thing I could imagine that could possibly be worse than the Holiday Special its self is someone's blog about watching the Holiday Special.

I don't have time to watch it now, so I saved the link to my favorites. Seriously though. It can't be as bad as everyone makes it out to be!

*From what I've read, not a huge amount of people did tune in. And it was never re-run on television. Yipes. * Then I guess all those who think heads should've rolled for this 'televisual event' probably got their wish!

I finally got to see some of this. Of course no one ever has anything good to say about it so I expected it to be terrifying. Now, I realise I can't judge the whole from a brief clip but come on, be fair! I've heard nothing but the harshest criticism of Carrie Fisher's singing and it was fine! Firstly, I don't recall her ever selling herself as a singer and secondly, how good would all those scorning her have sounded? To me she sounded precisely as I'd have expected Princess Leia to have sounded singing at such an event; not a voice I'd rush out to buy an album of but a lot better than the average untrained voice.
There's some good art design in there too e.g. the design of the tree houses. Some of this even got into ROTS by the looks of it.
Final word: did people tune in; because that's what's important to the producer and broadcaster, not quality!

This was so bad it came full circle and became hysterical, especially whilst on the sauce... I loved the bit with Han at the end where he faked out the storm trooper to get him to fall out of the treehouse... classically bad stuff.

The blogger's synopsises were enough to convince me to NEVER watch this...this vile-sounding pile of steaming stuff. Really.

But then you'll never find out about the hairdryer headset that gives disco-style soft **** to elderly wookiees! :O

Thank you for the tip...I actually found an 'iilegal' site and dowloaded the entire show. Took less than 12 parsecs too.
