It's the most wonderful time of the year. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars_Holiday_Special)

The Star Wars Holiday Special is a 1978 American television special set in the Star Wars galaxy. It starred Harrison Ford and the film's main cast while introducing the new character Boba Fett who would appear in later films. It was one of the first official Star Wars spin-offs, and was directed by Steve Binder. The show was broadcast in its entirety only once, in the United States and Canada, on November 17, 1978, on the U.S. television network CBS from 8:00 pm to 10:00 pm, Eastern Standard Time (EST), pre-empting Wonder Woman and The Incredible Hulk; on the Canadian television network CTV from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm, Eastern Standard Time;[1] and in Australia.

Rifftrax: The Star Wars Holiday Special

Have a Happy Life Day! And nothing kicks off a memorable Life Day quite so much as watching the legendary Star Wars Holiday Special receive a fully deserved Rifftrax parody treatment! Yes, all your favorite Wookiees are here: there's Chewbacca, Malla, Itchy, Lumpy and Art Carney.

Tony Award Winner and Oscar nominated Diahann Carroll as a singing holographic prostitute who services Grandpa Itchy. Not only that, there are commercials from 1978 that will come close to convincing you that "1978" is fairly synonymous with "Hell".

Because we taped ours off of the television set, and our NV-9300 doesn't have an "edit" function printed on one of its dozens of plastic piano key-style switches, we just left the commercials in there.

Bill, Mike, and Kevin make this the itchiest, lumpiest Life Day of them all!

She seemed really high, yeah. And have you ever seen her interviews? Wow...

Anyway, huzzah for Rifftrax!
