Muppet Babies referenced Star Wars in every single episode.

And The Muppet Show had a Star Wars themed episode, guest starring Mark Hamill.

That Muppet Show episode was great. Really enjoyable. The “Pigs in Space” sketches in many of Muppet shows were always good for some Star Wars and sci-fi references too.
 

A little after the 80’s, but the mentions in “How I met Your Mother” were quite funny at times.

“Pigs in Space” was great fun when I was a young kid. I was disappointed when the weekly Muppet Shows didn’t have those segments in them. Gonzo as “Dearth Nadir” was cool to see, and obviously also Mark Hamill in the later episode.
