I just saw a new Simpsons episode where "Duel of the Fates" was used. Funniest joke in the last few years...better than most of that episode.
Watch DarthEvil's Who Framed Darth Vader? video on YouTube!

You can also access the entire Horriffic Violence Theater Series from my Channel Page.

The Rose Bowl Parade in which George Lucas is the symbolic head for the year, will be on in under an hour. While you wait, the Home and Garden channel has a program on the behind the scenes. Anyone got any other Rose Parade shows? They showed an Endor float i think... This could be the new Holiday Special! HGTV says they'll be airing the parade uninterrupted. not sure what else you'll get from that but if it's your thing, it's available.
