Following the release of The Last Crusade in 1989, Lucas once again looked to television, leading to the highly successful The Young Indiana Jones Adventures, which was, as the title sounds, about a young Indiana Jones growing up and into the archaeologist we are introduced to in Raiders of the Lost Ark. While the Star Wars craze was dying down in the mid-80s, another Lucasfilm project had come along and grabbed the attention of the public, being Indiana Jones. While a sequel was produced, neither film was received well enough for Lucasfilm to consider doing their live action Ewok series, instead making it into an animated program.

After that failure, Lucasfilm stepped away from television for a while, returning in 1984 with the premiere of a movie that was designed to spin off into a full series, titled The Caravan of Courage – focusing not on the iconic space battles or the continued adventures of Luke Skywalker, but the Ewoks from Return of the Jedi. George Lucas did have some early conversations with networks, which over the next few months would turn into the Star Wars Holiday Special.

The earliest inklings of a live-action Star Wars TV show came about around the same time as the original 1977 release, as science fiction movies had been moving to the small screen, notably Logan's Run and Planet of the Apes. After all, I do consider myself quite the connoisseur of foods, so I find this term to be only slightly offensive, but completely fitting. Unfortunately, my picture was not next to the definition I found on the Internet, although I wouldn’t be upset if it was. It is defined as a “person who enjoys eating and often eats too much.” And no. I have no idea what a “gourmand” is, but I’m pretty sure I am one.Īlright, I’m not going to lie I did look up what “gourmand” meant because I have heard that term a couple times throughout my self-proclaimed foodie career. Like people who are foodies for a living, I derive a deep sense of pleasure (OK, maybe I’m overdoing it just a little bit) from eating and exploring new edible options.ħ. Without food I’d have a pretty pathetic social life. Every activity is automatically made better when food is involved. Family is coming to town? Gotta figure out where we’re going to go out to dinner. I have an exam tomorrow? Better get some study snacks. Wanna hang out? Sure, if we can get food. My life almost always revolves around food. OK, so I’m dead serious when I say this: food makes me so happy.
