The season premiere of Family Guy tonight (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Harvest_(Family_Guy)) was a fairly humorous retelling/parody of Star Wars: A New Hope. There was a number of good laughs, including a humourous reference to Robot Chicken doing this first.
What no YouTube link?

Hmm... I found myself glued to the TV for that entire hour. Mind you, I watched New Hope three weeks ago with the kids, so it was fresh in my mind :P I loved all the geeky, nerdy references in it, and Darth Stewie was the best!
Wait, that was an entire hour? :o
Thats crazy. I think that means I like it ;D

"I just wanted to let you know, we're all counting on you" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Harvest_(Family_Guy)#Cultural_references) <-- THAT is reason enough for me to desperately want to see this! ...how esoteric... ;D

They had a good point on that one, why didn't they just fire?

Alright, I was laughing my arse off. I nearly split my sides when I saw the pimped-out TIE fighter bobbing behind the others :)
You can find the whole episode, I think, in 5-parts, by searching:
Family Guy Star Wars Celebration
Family Guy Star Wars Blue Harvest
Family Guy Blue Harvest
Family Guy Blue Harvest Part <-- that's your best best, actually.
...but make it quick ;)
Already BT'd it last night after I read this thread. Took a whole 30min'ish to download.
"Well then stay here, you stuck up bitch!"
That was awesome.
Well the 3rd has a title now.

Anyone who is a fan of The Big Bang Theory now has Sheldon doing his famous, horrible "impression", playing in their brains.
This was also announced as the last Star Wars parody.

...because clearly Episodes 1, 2, and 3 are parody already. :rolleyes: (http://instantrimshot.com/index.php?sound=rimshot&play=true)

My theory is that they are films from a parallel universe where the biggest sci-fi movie in 1977 was "Starship Invasions"
