On November 17th, 1978 - there was a disturbance in the force. Jedi at the time remember hearing the sound of a million voices screaming at once - and then 30 minutes later… silence (after the show ended)…
Lets just put it this way. Bea Arthur is in it - along with Jefferson Starship and the rest of “Chewbacca’s family”… I’m busy today, so I only watched the introduction.
The Internet Movie Database entry about the special gives some interesting reviews.

Oh man, I could only get about 5 minutes into it. It’s painful! Wow! Seriously, talk about strange! I feel like five minutes of my life was sucked into a black hole. What the heck were they thinking? I almost feel like barfing. I’m not kidding. If you get to part with the holo-gymnastics you’ll feel the same. Errrppppp… The barf is coming… MUST STOP WATCHING… AHHHHH!! Ryan you owe me some of my life back!

I think Satan directed this thing.

Sorry about that. I didn’t really watch that much of it before I posted it… I heard it was bad… but I guess that is an understatement.

I only watched the introduction, but my favorite was that the sound on my computer was off of the picture, so it when it announced the guest stars, like Bea Arthur, it was showing pictures of Chewbacca’s family instead of the guest stars. That was pretty funny. I got to the first scene with Chewbacca’s family and realized that they couldn’t talk, and there was no one there to translate, and thought, “This is time to stop.”

Oh, I don’t think so… I had dad snag a torrent file of the full version - with higher quality video… Looks like PeeWee will have a little competition next year…
Oh - is it considered child abuse if you leave a kid watching this unattended (because you can’t bear to watch it?) What if the kid can’t talk yet?
Just thinking about December…
