The Star Wars Christmas Special Still Exists
rapturizer noted the critical news that "Fans of "Star Wars" have a chance to see a free screening of the notoriously bad 'Star Wars Holiday Special' next week in Minneapolis."
Nothing brings out the Christmas spirit like watching what may very well be the worst TV ever produced. Sadly however, I'm not sure that this is the worst *Star Wars* merch ever made.
I remember watching this "live" on TV as a kid, and being so disappointed. Our parents had been telling us for days that "Star Wars is going to be on TV!" and of course that wasn't what it was at all.
It's funny - back then - this was before even VCRs - we absolutely PINED for some things to finally come to TV. Now any time you want to watch something you just pop in a DVD and plop yourself on the couch. Times have changed.
