    I watched most of this last night and taped the rest (jet-lag from being at C-4 was getting to me 😉 )

    It was incredible. My husband (who is not a big SW fan) watched it with me and I said to him: “Now do you get why I love SW so much? It’s not just the movies themselves, but the themes and archetype relationships that deepen the story!!” Great job to the History Channel and all who worked on this presentation. 😀

    I watched it twice, not bad, but I was suprised no one else had any star wars shows on this weekend. Does the sci-fi channel know star wars has been around for 30 years?

    I know what you mean, Clone124…it seems a lot of other channels could have jumped on the bandwagon, but just didn’t. Not sure why?!
