You are correct.

I've seen SWHS one time and THX-1138. And I immediately saw the connection between the two films. THX-1138 and Itchy watch their porn through the same device.


Man, Lucas just can't resist referencing that film! Even in the holiday special!

the first time was painful and just thought what a load of "Beep" and gave up eventually, but i watched it again recently, and there were still parts that were i considered very bad but i could see a certain "charm" in there and saw why people like Adam like it, and got through a whole sitting, though it isnt something i will ever rush back to see or ever see again, least i can say to myself i have sat through the whole Holiday Special without feeling too much pain...


To be completely honest with you, that's kind of how I felt the first time I saw it. It was just such a jarring experience to see something so... different. The first time I saw it, I was a little freaked out by the whole idea. I ended up turning it off by the time the Chef (dare I say that I actually know her full name?) came on the HoloNet with her silly cooking act. It really took me a few viewings before I began to be able to "just sit down and enjoy it."
