    Actually, being part of the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker stable is rather illustrious.

    Did the fans know at the time that George Lucas was working an a sequel (considering that it was broadcast long before the age of internet), or did they think that the Holiday Special was basically it? :confused:

    And thanks for the offer. :)

    Will an official Special Edition of the Holiday Special (replete with enhanced special effects) ever find its way to TV and/or DVD? :eek:

    Not anymore. I mean honestly, Wrongfully Accused? Seems to me he only started working with them after their real classics anyway. I think by Naked Gun 2 1/2 (which rehashed gags from the TV show) one of ZAZ had gone off to be a 'serious' director anyway (Jerry?).
    Although I will give him credit for a few Police Squad episodes. But most of that list is rotten.

    Is the story/plot of the Holiday Special better or worse than the story/plot of the game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, which takes place about 4000 years ealier (I've neither seen the Holiday Special nor yet completed the game)? :confused:

    It seems that unlike the Holiday Special, the two Ewok Adventures tv-movies that aired in the mid-1980's are available for purchase on DVD. :)

    I was hoping to see Lumpy, but alas, it was not meant to be.

    :(

    Is the movie still worth watching even without Lumpy?

    Alas, the only two Wookiees in Episode III that were featured by name were Chewbacca and Tarful. [​IMG]
