New Jedi Order Legacy Of The Force Current Results Tatooine TV To End With Retrospective Show On 8-19-07 Posted By Mike on August 10, 2007 See below for the press release from pr.com A big thanks to Jeff Roney goes out from all of the Force-Cast crew and listeners for his help with the Live Force-Cast. Star Wars Audio Parody Show ends On 8/19/07 Tatooine TV, the Award-Winning Star Wars Parody Series ends with a live, retrospective show on 8/19/07. Orange, CA, August 09, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Jeff Roney (RoneyZone Productions (www.roneyzone.com)), an actor, writer, director, producer, stand-up comedian, and a Star Wars fan- gave his fellow-Star Wars fans some audio parody chuckles with Tatooine TV, on his birthday in 2003, and continued until 2006. The premise of TTV was a blending of the Star Wars universe with pop icons from the present day. These "pre-podcast" mp3 files found a home with other Star Wars Fan Audio productions on StarWarsFanWorks.com, and the little parody show grew from a meager PC in Orange County to win awards every year the show was nominated. TTV episodes were 3 to 5 minutes in length, and feature 1 to 2 comedy sketches. Notable sketches include; The Skywalker family on the Dr. Phil show, Infomercial about building Death Stars in your backyard, Dr. Evil choosing his successor, JarJar in the Army, Santa being captured by a passing Star Destroyer, Chewbacca joining 'The Osbournes' as a new pet, "Stuart" from MadTV joining a Jedi School, Commander Pilates, Michael Moore investigates Emperor Palpatine, and many more. Jeff, a natural mimic, handled most of the voices himself, but also found a talented troupe to assist him, with; Shawn "Obi Shawn" Crosby, Colleen Roney, Katy Tyszkiewicz, Beth Tyszkiewicz, William Lundin, Michael Smith, Ara Pelodi, and many others. The TTV voice group weaved their magic for 36 official episodes, and some special episodes for other shows. Jeff wrote most of the sketches, but also had co-writing help from John Cosper, Jack and Gretchen Hall, and other editors, as well. Even though there were other hands in the mix, Jeff's comedy touch was all over them. As the internet grew, so did the reach of TTV. Many internet shows (Star Wars en Direct, and others) and Internet Radio stations (Dementia Radio, and others) played the crazy episodes, as well. One of the little-understood jokes was the fact that Tatooine TV was a bungled TV signal that never got the video signal to attach to the audio signal, however some episodes did make a transition to youtube in the past few months. The final episode of Tatooine TV ended its official run in 2006, but more did lie ahead. Jeff had already used a web 2.0 interactive podcast solution, TalkShoe.com (A blending of a conference call interaction, and online text chatting), for another award-winning show, RoneyZone Radio, and felt that maybe there was more life in the Tat TV "ship". Tat TV Live, was more of a test bed to build anticipation for the Retrospective Show on August 19th, but it had other uses, as well. Jeff wanted to try out live, adlib comedy routines, so he asked Ara Pelodi to call in to the shows, and mimic Britney Spears, and other characters with success. All pieces were now in place for the "big show". Jeff has many things planned for the retrospective show; Behind the Scenes stories? Yes. Interviews with Voice Actors and Writers? Yes. Also, new Tatooine TV sketches will also be played on the show, like the Dune Sea Experience (Spoof of Disney's California Adventure). Jeff also plans to perform live enactments of newly scripted sketches, as well. This show will give participants a glimpse into the heart of this award-winning Star Wars Audio Parody series, Tatooine TV, one last time. Don't miss it- it is your destiny. "Tat TV Live" featuring the Tatooine Retrospective Show will begin at 2:50PM ET on 8/19/07, at http://SWTalk.JRDonline.Com. * Please register at TalkShoe.com prior to the show. The phone number is 1-724-444-7444, TalkCast ID: 18246, PIN is what you set up at TalkShoe. Mark your calendars, and we will see you on August 19th- live, on Tat TV Live. email this story discuss in forums Select Date 2008, May 2008, April 2008, March 2008, February 2008, January 2007, December 2007, November 2007, October 2007, September 2007, August 2007, July 2007, June 2007, May 2007, April 2007, February 2007, January 2006, November 2006, October 2006, August 2006, July 2006, June 2006, May 2006, April 2006, March 2005, July 2005, May 2005, April 2005, March 2005, February 2005, January 2004, December 2004, November 2004, October 2004, September 2004, August 2004, July 2004, June 2004, May 2004, April 2004, March 2004, February 2004, January 2003, December 2003, November 2003, October 2003, September 2003, August 2003, July 2003, June 2003, May 2003, April 2003, March 2003, February 2003, January 2002, December 2002, November 2002, October 2002, September 2002, August 2002, July 2002, June 2002, May 2002, April 2002, March 2002, February 2002, January 2001, December 2001, November 2001, October 2001, September 2001, August 1998, March Funny Yoda Facts Posted By Mike on May 13, 2008: "The Yeti used to exist, until he threw a snowball at Yoda" Bonus FCTV Video Posted By Mike on May 3, 2008: Don't cross the Jawas!
