      I see that you’ve just been commenting on everyone saying the similar thing (of Conan asking about the Holiday Special) so I’m not sure if you’re just being a troll. But I’ll give the benefit of doubt and chime in-
      You can see this interview was 2006 from the description. In the 2000s (and truthfully earlier), Harrison was always a bit of a “grump” as Conan humorously put it. Not in a mean spirited way but more of a private, reserved way where he often gave simple answers for interviews (it’s widely known that Harrison, being such a private person, isn’t too fond of interviews but has to do them as part of the press circuit for his films).
      Conan was about the only host that kinda brought out a humorous side of Harrison, especially when compared to other nightly or daytime hosts (perhaps the only other host that Ford would lower his guard around was David Letterman). So everyone saying Conan had guts to ask about the special, Conan is the only guy to do so and live, those are based on that perception that Harrison was seemingly more humorous and a little more open when with Conan (a great one to see is Conan interviewing Harrison in 2002 for K-19: The Widowmaker as another example of Ford letting down his guard around Conan or one where Conan showed Ford a montage of Ford’s great acting ability of pointing fingers which got a genuine laugh from Ford).
      NOW, Harrison has seemingly embraced the public perception of him as a grump and plays it for laughs when he’s on other talk shows like Kimmel or Fallon (if Fallon let’s him talk and doesn’t do that whole fake-laughter bit that overtakes all his interviews).

      Have you seen the last Indiana Jokes movie? Although maybe people were crying because it was such an awful movie not that it was so funny. Either was it's a 💩💩! But what is so annoying about Harrison Fart is that Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi were all HUGE FINANCIAL SUCCESSES! They all made him a MASSIVE STAR! THEY MADE HIM RICH! Yet every chance he gets he bashes them, he belittles George Lucas even though if it wasn't for George Lucas, Harrison Fart would have never been anymore than a carpenter.

So many thought he hated the character. He didn’t. But all these years later- he plays it up all the time like he hates it. He HATED some of the technical dialog and words- but he didn’t hate the character.

      It's a bit... that's why they could pull up the clip, it was prearranged and agreed upon, with Lucas who owns the IP rights in cahoots to be allowed to show the clip... All in good fun and it's nice to see that they can all laugh about it considering the history of repression that special was given by the Lucas team and everyone onboard including Harrison Ford, himself... It proves two adage: Time heals all wounds! And laughter is the best medicine!
