The Star Wars Holiday Special

The Star Wars Holiday Special

In 1978, this two-hour Star Wars spin-off aired for the first—and last—time on CBS. In the film, Hans Solo, played by Harrison Ford, travels to his furry friend Chewbacca's home planet to celebrate Life Day, the Wookiees' take on Christmas.

Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia make brief appearances, but really, this is Chewie's show. We even get to meet Chewbacca's father, wife and son. Who knew he was a dad?
