RFRN Holiday Special: A Faithful Wookiee
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, RFRN fans!! Republic Forces Radio Network officially ends its Droids retrospective series with a review of the Star Wars Holiday Special animated short, “A Faithful Wookiee.” This special features the world debut of bounty hunter and “friend”, Boba Fett. Although it came out 7 years prior to the Droids series, it was produced by Nelvana–the same studio that did the Droids and Ewoks animated series. Also, you might just find those character designs of R2-D2, C-3PO, Boba Fett, and the Stormtroopers a bit familiar if you’ve been following the Droids coverage. Is Fett here to help Luke, Han, and Chewie or is he Darth Vader’s right-hand man?
Listen and find out as Jerry, Dan, Jen, Berent, and Nathan discuss “A Faithful Wookiee”. You’ll find it’s minute-for-minute the most comprehensive review RFRN has ever done. There are 7 minutes of review per 1 minute of cartoon content! You can’t beat that!!!
