The 12 worst things in the EU

the **** a droid that can use the force 😬

Wow, I now know about the unsung hero skippy the droid. Thanks for that.

Eh, I got the impression Skippy the Droid was done as a joke and the author didn't intend it to be taken seriously, so I'm not sure I'd count that.*

When it mentioned the Jedi Prince series, my reaction was, "Hey, it had the Mofference!"

Then they said, "Honestly, the only good thing about the Jedi Prince series is the reveal that Moffs hold Mofferences, which is so horrifyingly awful it comes out the other side to awesome."

So, yea, I'm ok there 🙂

Huh, they listed Bendorion? Personally I don't mind the odd unusual species becoming Jedi, I find it pretty cool... though, yea, having him around post-purge, and have him fall to the darkside because stereotypes, was weak.

Also, unlike what the article writers assume, the Holiday Special is still technically canon.

PS The Mofference was held on the Moff ship.

It's actually Beldorion, but poor grammar aside, that article's spot on. I'd never heard of "Hoar" but that one's kinda funny.

Oh I got that but I like such stories like Tag and Bink where unknown or small characters end up playing a larger role/help things come to be without knowing. I guess Skippy just plays to what I like. 😄

I'd nominate the following for inclusion:

Dark Empire
The Old Republic
Any book with Drew Karpyshyn's name on it
Fate of the Jedi
The Crystal Star
The Mortis arc in particular, but plenty of TCW episodes
Jedi Trial
KotOR II
The Hand of Thrawn duology
Outbound Flight

The Crystal Star is in there.

GOD, all suck. I can't believe I love SW.

I'll come up with a real list later but let me start with one name to rule them all: Darth Caedus. Whackist Sith-Lord wannabe to come down the pipeline. Waste of a character and so much potential.

Ben Skywalker is also on my list. One freaking annoying action after another.

KOTOR2 and Fate of the Jedi especially.

No, the The Crystal Star especially.

That s*** literally makes me sad. It couldn't possibly be more awful.

I beg to differ. It didn't have Drew Karpyshyn's name on it.

Even though I don't like his stuff either, I'm going to have to side with Col. Valerian on this one.

Crystal Star had extra dimensional goo. Even Karpy never went full retard.

Huh, I thought all the Thrawn stuff was good.

You were under the impression that the Thrawn stuff was good or you read it all and in your opinion they are all good?

Slender Man would make a wonderful Sith Lord.

Well, Darth Sidious is slender, I suppose. In a very masculine way.
