This was not only Elvis' comeback, but also his first-ever TV special. Originally telecast December 3, 1968, the 60-minute songfest begins with Elvis offering a medley of his old hits: "Heartbreak Hotel," "Hound Dog," "All Shook Up," "Jailhouse Rock," "Love Me Tender," etc. In honor of the Yuletide season, Presley also croons "Blue Christmas." The more elaborate production numbers include "Guitar Man," "Nothingsville," "Big Boss Man," and "Trouble." Wrapping up things is the grand finale... (All Movie Guide)

Some of his biggest hits get short shrift, and large sections of the programme are spent on some very 60s-style dance choreography. The best thing about it is the closeups of Elvis during and between songs.

Ah, the '68 Comeback Special aka the last time Elvis looked decent on stage. Pretty good if you like Presley's schtick...though this is technically a musical performance recorded from the TV and not really a movie per se. Elvis' movies were terrible.
