The Space Channel does it again

[Owain Taggart]

The Space Channel tends to have some original commercials. I'm sure you've seen some of them such as the No More Star Trek commercial and the Klingon School commercial, and this Darth Maul skit showing him doing odd jobs.

With the last few years, they've had a sci-fi marathon during the holidays, and this is last year's commercial for it with Darth Maul preparing Christmas dinner.

And this is this year's and they're exchanging gifts.
Aftershave?? Ewww. Someone really doesn't like Darth Maul.

Here are a few others from I think last year:

Actually, that one exchanging gifts was apparently used last year too though I've never seen it until this year. Anyhow, still funny after all these years

it's just a pity Space's holiday programming isn't as creative as it's ads.
(then again they have probably haven't repeated the Star Wars movies quite as often as Spike).

Yeah, I know what you mean. Then again, at least it is Sci-fi programming unlike say, SyFy

That "Todd and the Book of Pure Evil" series shows they know what they're doing with their original programming as well.
