This year, HBO premiered Elvis Presley: The Seacher. Next year, NBC will be celebrating the 50th anniversary of Elvis's "comeback" special.
The original special, titled simply Singer Presents...Elvis, was originally aired on December 3, 1968.
Billboard reported:
NBC will be paying tribute to the King of Rock and Roll next year, particularly focusing on the network's incredibly successful 1968 special that marked Elvis Presley's return to live television.
The 50th Anniversary of the Elvis Comeback Special is set to feature today's biggest music artists recreating the spectacle and the staging of the original show. Additionally, the two-hour broadcast will include rare footage of the superstar and interviews from those who were involved in the event 50 years ago.
