Bette Midler: Ol' Red Hair Is Back

Bette's first major network special.
In 1977, Bette Midler's first television special premiered, featuring guest stars Dustin Hoffman and Emmett Kelly.

To make the show palatable to home viewers, the special featured heavily cleaned up versions of the material Midler was performing at that time on stage.
