Connor Ratliff, who you might recognize from The Marvelous Mrs Maisel or his excellent podcast, has spent the past six years hilariously imagining how the decidedly uncharismatic filmmaker George Lucas might fare as a talk show host. Now, to help raise money for the now-unemployed staffers of New York City’s Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, Ratliff’s Lucas and his trusty sidekick Watto (as played by The Tick’s Griffin Newman) are bringing the George Lucas Talk Show—which routinely played at UCB—online for an epic livestream folding in every film in the Star Wars saga.
