Star Wars Reference on NBC's Boomtown Posted By Britany on October 23, 2002
Sith Lord sends in the following Star Wars reference from Sunday night's episode of Boomtown:
In the neverending fanboy quest for the ultimate obscure Star Wars reference, here's my submission. Last night on NBC's Boomtown, one of the cops on the show quoted Jedi Master Yoda's now famous trailer tagline, "Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering (insert precognizant worrisome accent on the word suffering). The funny part is that he gives Dr. Spock the credit for the line instead of Yoda.
Mawhonic adds:
Two of the characters, LAPD partners Tom and Ray, were discussing Tom's problems with his retired cop father. The exchange went something like this:
Ray: You know what Spock says: "Fear leads to anger; anger leads to hate; hate leads to suffering" Tom: Wasn't that Yoda? Ray: Yoda, Spock, Dr. Laura - they all blend together.
