If nothing else he was filled with contempt for the Jamaicans
You know, at first I dismissed that claim, but after looking back at the character's role in the series, I think you might have a point. After all, wasn't it Jar Jar who motioned that Palpy be given emergency powers?

Yes yes it was. I was referring more to the fact that he acts like a bumbling stoner who obviously has a Jamaican accents and his ears look pretty dread-like to me...



By far he is the most annoying character in the series. At least Ewok were cute as bumbly little comic relief character because they're small, but jar jar is full grown bumbly comic relief... and that's just wrong

Could you imagine a Jar Jar Binks saturday morning cartoon show?

Yep, so the character who's based off of Jamaican stereotypes is a) annoying and b) indirectly allowed the evil Galactic Empire to come into being. There are positive ways to incorporate ethnic stereotypes (Jazz from Transformers) and there are annoying/wrong ways.

At least it's getting a little better over time, look at the crows from Dumbo...

Still though, a Jar Jar Binks 80's style saturday morning cartoon show would just be downright weird. What would even be the premise of that show? Anyone?

Maybe everyone should write one episode of The Adventures of Jar Jar Binks

They already made that, they tweaked the character slightly and Knight Rider was the result.

No, the idea of a Jar Jar show is to good for Saturday morning cartoons....I'm think Home Improvement meets Jar Jar....GOLDEN!

For the record, I know the Siths are the "bad guys". But I still think the Empire, unrelated to the Sith, are the "good guys".

Also, Sith.

And yes, the Empire pwns.
