Maybe you have to expect it to be bad to like it.

I dunno. I expected it to be awful and it didn't let me down tongue
Still love the cartoon tho.

I still wonder how Carrie Fisher explained her singing to her parents Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds both very good singers. It did not run in the family,apprently.
SWHS is the low point of the Star Wars Universe. I don't blame Lucas for wanting to destroy it. It taught him a valuable lesson though: He never again gave up creative control of "Star Wars" again. I think he made a mistake in approving some of the weaker EU stuff,but he has never allowed anything to apporach the level of awfulness that the SWHS did.

What? Honestly, I was expecting nothing higher than at least a 2. I guess the Boba Fett cartoon has redeeming qualities.

what on earth is the Star Wars Holiday Special? Why is it so bad?


The Holliday Special was a Star Wars TV program that aired in 1978.

It was so bad because of this:

Leia's Life Day song

Mark Hammil's pale blonde hair

Bee Arther

Jefforson's star ship

Itchy, Scrathchy, Munnchy, Lumpy, and Malla.

Art Carney

The ressurection of Greedo

Wookiees in red Jedi robes

Harrison Ford's bad acting

The only good thing was the Boba Fett cartoon

If I forgot any of the other bad things add them. tired

The Boba Fett cartoon wasn't even THAT great. It was the only part of it that WASN'T completely painful. I have it. I won't watch it again. It is bad. Not so-bad-it's good. Just bad.

Especially that part where Itchy's watching that lady and she's like "I am your fantasy enjoy my pleasure" or something like that. That was just disturbing.

It does not have 'so-bad-it's-good' merit.
It is 'let-down' bad, void of retro-campy salvation.

Avoid it.

I think it has just a bit of "so-bad-it's-good"-ness to it...but only a bit.

Meanwhile, i have been known to make copies of it for friends, daring them to watch it all the way through without fast-forwarding at all.

None have met the challenge successfully. devil
