Bette Midler: Ol' Red Hair Is Back (1977)

Chewbacca y Han Solo viajan a Kashyyyk, el planeta natal de Chewie, para celebrar el Life Day (una especie de navidad wookie). Pero Darth Vader, convertido en una especie de Scrooge intergaláctico, ha decidido capturarlos. El especial continuaba con números musicales, largos diálogos en lenguaje wookie, así como un segmento de animación. Oscuro especial para televisión basado en el universo Star Wars. Contó con los mismos actores de las películas, si bien George Lucas reniega de él y, tras su primera y única emisión en 1978, censuró su repetición para siempre.

Londres, 1937. Una rica e influyente dama que acaba de quedarse viuda (Judi Dench) y que necesita ocupar su tiempo, decide comprar un viejo teatro londinense con la ayuda de un hábil mánager, Vivian Van Damm, un experto del mundo del espectáculo, a quien desconciertan las maneras excéntricas y poco corteses de la señora Henderson. Van Damm llega a prohibirle asistir a los ensayos debido a sus continuas injerencias, pero ella se disfraza para espiarlo.

Extremely rare, never repeated special starring Mary Tyler Moore, Ben Vereen, Doug Kershar, Arthur Fiedler, The Manhattan Transfer. “A special in which the vivacious Mary Tyler Moore acts out her wildest fantasies. Lot’s of big dance numbers reminds us that Mary started her career as a dancer. Moore sings and dances to rock, pop, and classical pieces in a show that's drawn from the Bible and fleshed out with allegory about man's creation, fall and rebirth. The show takes the form of surrealistic dream sequences that range from the fanciful to the solemn, and that have Mary playing the roles of angel, devil and woman." Manhattan Transfer does "Sympathy for the Devil," perhaps worth the price of admission right there.”
