Alison Haislip here, from such delightfully entertaining programming like G4’s Attack of the Show, NBC’s The Voice, and HULU’s original series Battleground. I’ll be co-hosting COURSE OF THE FORCE. Why? Well… because Chris Hardwick asked me to. BUT ALSO, because I watched all 3 original films, in their entirety, every day, for two weeks, ON VHS, while I had the chicken pox in 2nd grade. And while I may have one or two bad scars from that classic childhood disease, I have so many good scars from watching my favorite sci-fi epic over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over…
SO HERE IT IS! STAR WARS IN A NUTSHELL:
Luke Leia Han Chewy R2-D2 Yoda C-3P0 Vader Force Lightsaber Endor Death Star Obi-Wan Endor AT-AT Boba Jabba Millennium Falcon Ewok Stormtrooper Jedi New Hope Empire Skywalker Palpatine Tatooine Greedo Hutt Lando Wicket Wedge Alderaan Bantha Wookiee Dagobah Jawa Hoth Rancor Womp Rat I Thought They Smelled Bad On The Outside Ackbar Anakin Padme Clones Midi-chlorian Darth Watto Tauntaun Naboo Beru Owen Red 5 Parsecs Droids Carbonite COURSE OF THE FORCE and okay fine Jar Jar.

I think it’s great that Alison Haislip & Chris H are doing these posts! My 2 fav people from those shows on G4. I’m sure you both hate being referenced like that!?
As a guy in his late 30’s I can relate to all the things you say about loving Star Wars. I too took much flack for loving such things. Then along came you guys who taught me it was ok to like these things even as we get older.
I really enjoy both of you and hope to read much here about how you are getting a chance to do all the cool things we all want & wish to be a part of. Just let me know if you ever need some help!
Keep up the great work!
Great Article Alison.
I am left wondering if you would watch all the recent seasons of Doctor Who (starting Eccleston of course) if you ever became very ill again.
You and Chris are perfect choices to host Course of the Force. Just wish I could be there.
So good for those kids! George Lucas must have made a big donation! (By that I mean letting anyone use the rights.) GO JEDI!! (Or if you were terribly wronged by the Rebels, go sith)
