Default Need help finding a Robot Chicken sketch

Hey all of you Robot Chicken fans. I was wondering if you could help me.

What is the name of the episode that has the sketch where Vader calls the Emperor to tell him the Death Star has been destroyed? I want to download it from iTunes but the descriptions don't tell me which episode it is.

Thank you for your help.

Sorry, I don't know which episode that is, except that it's somewhere in the middle of season one, I think. Somewhere around episode six. Maybe.

But yeah, that's an awesome sketch.

Going by IMDB, it looks like it's "1987," Season Two, Episode Six.

Here's a nice Robot Chicken sketch:



Might not be the one you're after, though.

"what do you mean the Death Star was blown up by a bunch of teenagers?
and what the hell is an aluminum falcon?"

that's one of my favorite pieces from any tv show ever.

Sorry. I found it on iTunes. I just needed to know which episode it was so I didn't have to start buying them randomly.

"Oh, no, now he's crying".

Classic.

I was going to say that over the weekend they had commercials for an up-coming Robot Chicken: Star Wars special (June 17th, IIRC). That will have it, but you seem to have found it already anyway.

That little sketch is my favorite. It was done so convincingly as a one-sided telephone conversation. Whoever wrote that sketch up really thought into it.

I just caught the re-run of the RC:SW special last night. Well, a few parts of it. My g/f HATES Robot Chicken. She doesn't really like the all-out-stupid-slapistic type comedy that is Robot Chicken. Plus, she's never even seen any of the Star Wars movies. So it's not like the parodies were particularly funny for her.

But the 5 minutes of it I saw was pretty halarious. And yes, I caught the "what do you mean they blew it up? who's they?" sketch.

Yeah, leads me to wonder why I can't watch a 30 minute cartoon, but often get stuck watching [explicative deleted] like "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen".
I don't really watch television though. Try to tune in for the 'Tribe. And my Iron Chef's. The rest is just background noise while I play guitar or eat.
