The hour-long season finale airs tonight at 9 PM Eastern. This is the last of the Star Wars parodies(unless they decide to do the prequels in the future). And like the other ones, this was released on DVD/Blu-ray before airing on TV. So, there will be edits and you can chronicle them here. Here is the synopsis:
 
This got such bad reviews I didn't bother getting it, so it'll be new to me. According to everyone, if there are cuts I won't miss much.
 
Yeah, this was the weakest of the three. Their hearts definitely weren't in this one. The opening crawl even addresses this.

I'll just be thankful for next season, where we can have a season finale that we didn't already see on DVD/blu-ray six months earlier. There's no reason for me to watch this.
 
Oh c'mon. I've seen regular 30-minute episodes worse than this one. Anyways, most people consider Return of the Jedi in general as the weakest point in the original Star Wars trilogy anyways so I shouldn't be surprised that a Family Guy parody of it doesn't suffer the same problem.

Anyways, I'll be skipping this as well since I already have the entire parody trilogy on DVD.
 
Yeah, not as good as the previous two but I'll still tune in again. Also,
At the end they say The Cleveland Show is doing the prequels. Was that just a joke or do you think Seth is serious?
 
Where was this mentioned? I don't remember that joke in the special.

Anyways, I'll try to keep track of some of the cut scenes in the episode (for those who don't have the DVD or Blu-Ray), although I'd probably need some help here since I've only seen this once.

Also, a little something to do after watching the episode (I made this after watching It's a Trap in December): Family Guy/Star Wars quiz (Warning: spoilers for tonight's episode)
 
I'm still looking for a secondhand copy of the episode that's under $10, so I'm looking forward to finally viewing this.

It will have flaws, it will have cuts, but I'm interested nevertheless.
 
A list of scenes from the DVD/BD version that's cut from the TV version for those who haven't seen it yet (will be updated throughout the episode):
  • The family watching VH1 before the power goes out again

  • Luke getting upset at C-3PO for interrupting him, even though he's warning him about Jabba's trap door
