The Star Wars Holiday Special
"The Star Wars Holiday Special was a two-hour television special set in the Star Wars galaxy. It was the first official Star Wars spinoff produced.
In it, Chewbacca and Han Solo visit Kashyyyk, Chewbacca's home world, to celebrate Life Day. Along the way, they are pursued by agents of the Galactic Empire who are searching for rebels on the planet.
The main storyline of the film contains a variety-show segments as well as a cartoon produced by Toronto-based Nelvana that officially introduces the bounty hunter Boba Fett.
The film is notorious for the almost universal hatred it garners from the nerd platoon, or really anyone with any taste. George Lucas had limited involvement with the film's production, and he was understandably unhappy with the outcome."
Cribbed from WikipediaThis film is shit. But funny as hell after a few drinks, and it's kitch value makes it one of the more bearable Christmas specials.
