35 years ago today, Star Wars fans were excited to see the first follow-up to the record-breaking, smash hit film that had opened the year before. Unfortunately, what they got was The Star Wars Holiday Special.
Yes, it was on November 17th, 1978 that the infamous Holiday Special had its one and only airing. It's become an infamous piece of Star Wars history - never legally released in any format since, making it a popular bootleg item. George Lucas himself, who had little to do with the Holiday Special, has made snarky references to it, though amusingly, elements introduced in the Special -- most notably, Chewbacca's family -- did actually continue on via various Expanded Universe novels and such.
