My first review since 2002

I haven't been compelled to write an IMDB review in over 18 years, but let me say that GLTS is just. that. good. (Also, all my previous reviews are terrible and I disavow them as teenage ineptitude in action; don't let them color your views on my taste level or human worth.)

Anyway, you should watch this show, especially now that it is available to all of us outside of New York City. It's very good -- especially if you like snacks, naps, and little twists. Who doesn't like those things?? If you don't, fine, but there's plenty of other stuff too! Give it a chance, will ya?

A True Delight

The chemistry between George Lucas, Watto, and their wacky, nap-prone producer Patrick has made this show a must-see for comedy fans. After the COVID-related hiatus of the live show, the gang decided to do some fundraising with a marathon viewing of the entire chronological Star Wars film series (including the Holiday Special and both Ewok films) on May the 4th; since those 34+ hours of comedy occurred, each Sunday we have been lucky enough to see the silliness continue and evolve. The possibilities of what you will get out of each episode keep it surprising; the comedians behind it make it essential.

Funny, special, and vital.

Somehow a show designed for a live, in-person audience is thriving in 2020's socially distanced reality. I say "somehow," but the answer is clear to anyone who watches: the hosts' earnest, brilliant, bizarre, and hilarious hard work has to be seen to be understood, but once you experience it, you cannot help but be moved. This year has brought me very few moments of unhindered joy and relief--many of them have been from watching this show. You will believe a Toydarian can fly, you will believe that you can laugh again. The show is very very funny and I cannot recommend it enough.

May Detours Be With You

Ever wonder "What if Star Wars was funny?" George Lucas self financed 39 COMPLETED episodes of a fully animated Star Wars series, Star Wars Detours. In 2012, the Walt Disney Company bought Lucasfilm and subsequently put Detours in the Disney vault. In these trying times, the people need Detours now more than ever.

Listen to retired filmmaker George Lucas, Watto, and producer Patrick Cotnoir discuss this and more on the George Lucas Talk show.

This is my favorite show that is 3.5 hours long every week no matter what.

Strange Magic

As a 31 year old father, I didn't think there was a George Lucas project I could like more than Strange Magic. Then The George Lucas Talk Show came along. Thank you George for continuing to create even after the overlords at Disney stole Star Wars from you and left you with a measly few billion dollars.

Watto and Patrick are fun too.
