Outline

BB-8 landed a starring role in the series of bite-sized Blips, simple animated sketches that highlight the shenanigans the beloved astromech and his counterparts and friends get into when facing down stormtroopers, pesky porgs, and the enemy of short droids everywhere – the dreaded control panel positioned just out of reach.

Trivia

  • The series includes various creatures or droids, like the porgs, BB-9E, 2BB-2 or BB-4, which were created for the then-upcoming Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi.
