    Yes, it's happening on ESPN 2.

    Yes, I am going to DVR it.

    No, I am not expecting to be very good.

    No, I'm not going to miss out on it, because it apparently has an inside look of the Millennium Falcon and a preview for Rebels.

    Discuss.

    Since I can't see ESPN 2 and my comprehension of spoken English is not really good, I hope it eventually come to "hardly legal" channels with Spanish subtitles

    I just watched the thing on DVR. The jokes were pretty corny, but I liked the way they made their room look like the set of the Millenium Falcon (I thought it'd be a quick look into the set, but I should have known that J. J. would be secretive as usual).

    The Rebels clip that they showed was pretty neat. It involves the Inquisitor in a TIE Advanced chasing after the Ghost, and he actually manages to get a hit in on the ship's engines (which throws Chopper off).

    Really it wasn't even the same type of show. But I think the Halloween special was better. It was only a half hour.

    You didn't miss anything. The only bit of content that was really a preview in the show was the clip from "Empire Day", which is out now.

    I don't think it'll be an annual special.

    Still it gives me a reason to go online at that time of the year while the fireworks are screaming all around me.

    It was on ESPN2 and they had the set decorated like the Falcon and the anchors dressed up as Star Wars characters. It was more or less a Sports-Center Halloween Special with a Star Wars theme.
