Lucas Confirms Star Wars spin-off TV series

Posted by timothy on from the more-characters-more-figurines-and-lunchboxes dept.

Mictian writes "In a rare public appearance at the Star Wars Celebration III (his previous fan event appearance was in 1987), George Lucas confirmed that he's working on two TV series. One will be a full 3D animation series (with 30-minute episodes) of the recent Cartoon Network Clone Wars shorts, and the other a live-action series, that will be set in the time between Episodes III and IV, but won't feature the main characters. Production is expected to begin in about a year."

    I actually Star Wars but if we are going to bring a science fiction series to TV might I make a suggestion?
    The Known Space books would be great.
    The Man Kzin Wars or Ringworld? Please?
