  Television special - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A television special is a television program, typically a short film or television movie, which interrupts or temporarily replaces programming normally scheduled for a given time slot.
In the 1960s, multi-part Specials, over several days in a week, or on the same day for several weeks, evolved from this format, though these were more commonly called miniseries.
At the same time, the designation "TV Special" for single-episode dramatized presentations was dropped in favor of Made-for- TV-movie, as a publicity gimmick.

 deseretnews.com | Streisand's TV specials sure to delight her fans
Barbra Streisand has been an amazing talent from the get-go, as her first TV special, "My Name Is Barbra," demonstrates.
This fl-and-white musical display — when she was barely into her 20s and starring on Broadway in "Funny Girl" — flew in the face of TV conventions at the time, and it was a big hit.
Four other (color) specials followed and were also unique: "Color Me Barbra," "The Belle of 14th Street," "A Happening in Central Park" and "Barbra Streisand and Other Musical Instruments." And while one might argue that none of these quite lives up to the first (how do you match perfection?), it's a minor complaint.
