Back in 1978, George Lucas and CBS created a Star Wars holiday special so staggeringly bad, Lucas has publicly stated he wants it destroyed. The variety show featured Carrie Fisher singing, Wookiee porn, and many, many things that should never be associated with Star Wars. Budget restrictions, Harrison Ford's refusal to sing or dance, and some seriously questionable choices made for a production so chaotic, it's a miracle this thing ever made it to air.
Comedians and Star Wars aficionados Adam Pally (The Mindy Project, Happy Endings) and Betsy Sodaro (Ghosts, Superstore) join Misha to navigate the spacey misadventure of the Star Wars Holiday Special.
