It takes courage to admit you've made a mistake

Starwars.com is publishing this week several articles about the 30th Anniversary of the Star Wars Holiday Special .

In addition to that one, they also have an interview with the actress who played Chewie's son, and with the co-author of the much loved show.

There's an article on collecting the Holiday Special, which includes an issue of Starlog with Bea Arthur on the cover (and when the hell did you ever expect to read THAT sentence?), a Jefferson Starship single, and a Boba Fett figure.

Good times. Man, thank God I was only 5 and wouldn't have cared.

Love the icon! I don't think Max Rebo would be quite so happy about it, though. (And I realize now that I DO have some measure of a anorak factor regarding Star Wars, because I immediately understood the referrence. *hangs head in shame*)

Meanwhile, there is a bootleg copy of the Star Wars Holidays special sitting alone in a closet somewhere, unfinished, as it really was THAT bad! *chuckle*

It's horrifying. I'm sure there's one or two good bits in it, but it's like pearl hunting in a sewage tank.
