Luke Skywalker, R2-D2, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Princess Leia, and C-3PO followed up Star Wars (1977) A New Hope with a infamously cringey televised holiday special that everyone from Mark Hamill to Harrison Ford now consider unwatchable. However, as the first appearance of Boba Fett and many details that later Star Wars installments would tie into the universe, from the Wookiee planet Kashyyyk to the Life Day celebration shoutout in The Mandalorian first episode, it remains weirdly essential viewing for true Star Wars fans. Allow Tommy Bechtold to guide you through this mess with another #BootlegBreakdown, in which he recaps the most hilarious WTF moments while praising the Star Wars universe contributions we couldn’t live without. Why is the Star Wars Holiday Special so beloved to Star Wars creators like Dave Filoni?
