MST3K didn't make the list.

I loved that show.  :-)

I used to watch that with my dad, one of my favorite childhood memories.

Actually I like the whole story. I've loved Star Wars since I was a teenager but it has so much more depth for me now. ROTS is my favorite of the six, followed very, very closely by Empire. Can't beat the lightsaber battles in ROTS. Having been fascinated with Vader most of my adult life, I was thrilled Lucas showed how he got there and it makes the story of his redemption so much more poignant. Besides, I don't see how you can "ruin" your own story.

Two words: Jar Jar.

Two more:

*******. Ewoks.


I'd rather have Jar Jar then Ewoks. Ever since they went and did their own special with those stupid, sticky-sweet little kids and the Evil-Lyn witchy wannabe I lost all respect for them (not that I had much to begin with). And they look like kids in furry PJ's. Nothing screams "I'm wearing a costume" quite like wrinkly suits.

That was one of the best shows they ever had on Sci-Fi.
