Body: First Place goes to Benthams_head for making me wish I was at Max Rebo: Black and White Night, which is inspired by Roy Orbison: Black & White Night (1987) "A special that runs during every pledge drive on “PBS Tatooine”. It features the legendary Rebo; along with Droopy McCool, Sny Snoodles and a cavalcade of stars from across the galaxy, playing some of his greatest hits for an audience of aging Hutts. Sadly, less than a year after filming this concert, Rebo would die of gluttony; making this show all the more poignant and memorable. A DVD of the performance can be obtained at the 'Han Solo in carbonite' donation level." (Notes from here on by SkyPilot) Photo from the broadcast: Rebo is circled by scat-singing Salacious Crumb, chidinkalutist Droopy McCool, and vocalist Sny Snoodles. Note Ziro the Hutt's tail to far right. This picture was snapped as Ziro, who rushed the stage to touch Rebo, is dragged away by Gamorrean security guards. Rebo's crowd-pleasing set included incendiary covers of "Coruscant Prison Blues," "Womp Rat out of Hell," "Alderaan Angel," "I Used the Force on You," and "Mack the Lightsaber." The grand finale is a tear-jerking rendition of "Jizz is Here to Stay," which hit number #1 upon broadcast, and then once again one year later, when news hit of Rebo's death. Second Place goes to karl42 for his reality show centered on the adventures of Boba Fett, bounty hunter. "For some reason I have this insane image of this poor slob trussed up and hogtied in the back of Boba Fett's ship Slave I, just sobbing and looking all fearful. While flying the ship, getting his quarry to the man who hired him, Boba asks over his shoulder: 'Wha'dja keep running for, brah?' That's right: Dog the Bounty Hunter, a la Boba Fett." SkyPilot: I wouldn't miss the episode where he bags the rancor for Jabba the Hutt, or the Season 1 cliffhanger where Fett tumbles into the Sarlaac pit. But as Fett fans know, in the first episode of Season 2: Fett rides again!
