Yup, the TV series is go.
It's all very hush hush, but my money's on it being about the start of the rebellion, and set
between episodes III and IV, with virtually all new characters.

I'm still hoping for a final trilogy too, but it's definitely looking highly unlikely now.
Lucas has been going on record a lot recently saying he's not going to make them.


do you have any more info on the TV series? like, what station will carry it? when is it coming out? anything like that!?? i'm dying for info!!!


It's way too early for anything like that, the TV Series isn't even 'officially' in Pre-Production yet.
Lucas will only 'oversee' it, and outline the basic story arc and do's and dont's. Other people
will actually write the episodes and details etc. Which should give George plenty of free time
to get on with the final trilogy (...well maybe not, but I can but hope razz)

Excerpt from AP interview:

AP: 'After "Episode III", will you ever revisit "Star Wars"?'

Lucas: 'Ultimately, I'm going to probably move it into television and let other people take it. I'm sort of preserving the feature film part for what has happened and never go there again, but I can go off into various offshoots and things. You know, I've got offshoot novels, I've got offshoot comics. So it's very easy to say, "Well, OK, that's that genre, and I'll find a really talented person to take it and create it." Just like the comic books and the novels are somebody else's way of doing it. I don't mind that. Some of it might turn out to be pretty good. If I get the right people involved, it could be interesting.'

I reckon the TV series is a natural and positive progression 2 go from here on in. I mean, imagine the amount of time and money Lucasfilm could put in2 that alone - it could run and run. That is, as long as it doesnt resemble anything like the let-down the whole 'Young Indy' shambles was.

Well, it looks like the TV show's production timetable is a bit more concrete than I thought.
It's scheduled to air Fall 2006.
