I distinctly remember a mailman visiting Mrs. Chewbacca, and as he left he told her, "Hey, have a good Life Day. I mean that."

This line, and the whole "Stir, whip, stir, whip, whip, whip, stir, beat!" thing, are the only things I still remember from that fateful night in 1977.

I guess I was at the "target age" for that show originally, because I had fond memories of it. Fond, that is, until I made the mistake of downloading it from WinMX. I've had it for months and haven't gotten through it yet. How could my childhood memories so betray me?! I guess when you're six nothing is too corny as long as it's Star Wars, but it really is the worst thing that ever happened to the Star Wars universe. I keep it for the nostalga factor, but I doubt I'll ever actually watch it all the way through.

it didn't air anywhere close to Christmas...it's only called a holiday special because it aired on my birthday.

of course i wasn't due to be born for another couple years, otherwise i probably wouldn't have let it slide...
