George Lucas would most likely prefer you dismiss The Star Wars Holiday Special as a fever dream you had one night after eating some bad takeout, but alas, it is a thing that, despite his best efforts, will always exist.

The infamous 1978 TV special - which is largely accepted to be canon, by the way - introduces us to Chewbacca's (Peter Mayhew) family, including his young son Lumpy (Patty Maloney).

In theory, the concept of Chewie Jr. has a ton of adorable potential, but Lumpy's - full name Lumpawaroo - offputtingly creepy facial expressions completely work against the entire appeal.

Not to ignore the fact that, like most original characters in the Special, he exists largely to string along a series of insufferable and overlong skits.
