Thread: Old news for some not so old for others
The rumors have been around forever, but it looks like plans are finally underway for a TV Series based on Star Wars characters for 2006.
Reports are that the series may revolve mostly around Boba Fett, and take place during the time period between Episodes 3 and 4.
As reported on Aint It Cool:
"Yep, there is a Star Wars TV show on the way. Yep, it takes place between Episode 3 and 4. Yep, the character and story arcs are starting to come together. Hehe... fanboys are gonna love this! Playing one of the series' villans we love to hate is none other than... wait for it... Boba Fett! Expect young Boba (but not nearly as young as in Ep. 2) to feature in the series significantly. And you wondered why Lucas spent so much time focusing on that kid in Attack of the Clones and made sure that you knew that he knew that the Jedi/Republic was responsible for his Dad's death. Now you know. " -Cooper the Hound (AICN FAN)

GL said that if the T.V. shows (the live action one and the CG Clone Wars one) are a sucess (and God knows they would be) that a show set in the ancient times of the Republic would be high on the list for future series. So a KotOR type showcould be very possible.

That would be pretty stupid of ole GL. Since the Luke era is so well documented, he would have much more elbow room if he'd place it during the KotOR timeline... or he COULD possible have it as a roving non linear Star Wars show. Not based on any particular time but with stories from many timelines including current history. Like maybe each season could have a central theme, but seen from the perspective of many different figures. Kinda like the old 'Wild Cards" novel series... which i'm sure i'm the only one who's ever heard of it (/sigh).
I just hope he dosent place it in the current history... because there's not much thats been missed in there from the movies and EU.
And judging from the story presented in the first three films, some fans will eat up anything.

I think that would be cool. See him grow up, learn his trade. Maybe even his first kill? Oh well, I can hope
