Special Sub-Topic: Star Wars TV References


In which comedy did Mark Hamill appear as himself being given VIP treatment at a restaurant?

    '3rd Rock From The Sun'. The alien family are eating dinner in a nice restaurant when they are moved from their table in the middle of the room to one by the kitchen door because a 'celebrity' is coming and needs their table. The celebrity turns out to be Mark Hamill (playing himself). This annoys Sally and she says 'He thinks he's so important just because Darth Vader's his father.' Dick replies 'He is?' Later in the same episode, Mark is drying his hair in his hotel room, when he stops and looks at the hair dryer. He points it as though it was a blaster and starts making laser like noises. Mark then hides his hand under his robe sleeve, and screams and flails EXACTLY like he did in 'The Empire Strikes Back'. (Only it's the wrong hand...)

In which cartoon did the characters meet a green ET-lookalike alien and call him Yoda?
    'Animaniacs'. In one episode the Warners are sucked up into an alien space ship and on board the ship they meet a green ET-looking alien. When they meet the alien they say, 'Hi Yoda! We're the Warners.'

Which cartoon show had a nursing home called 'Near Death Star'?
    'Futurama'. Fox's 'Futurama' has paid homage to the 'Star Wars' trilogy a few times. In this episode a rescue attempt had to be made when the Professor was placed in 'Futurama's' equivalence to a nursing home, conveniently named the 'Near Death Star' (which incidentally happened to have their citizens hooked up in a Matrix-type fashion). When escaping from the facility there was a Death Star-typed run that was followed by a space segment on the surface of the facility. The surface of the station was set up very similar to that of the Death Star in 'A New Hope' and trenches could be see, as well as gun turrets.
