Lucasfilm developing new Star Wars TV comedy

I feel a disturbance in the force.

Variety reports that Lucasfilm Animation is developing a new animated Star Wars TV comedy series. Yes, you read correctly? a Star Wars comedy series. But really, are you surprised? If there is one thing George Lucas loves, it?s milking the Star Wars franchise for every golden drop.

  1. I think this is the brain-child of Seth Green, known for the many STAR WARS parodies from his now-defunct ROBOT CHICKEN.

  2. As Jar-Jar would say, “Mesa thinks ‘dis is bomb-bad.”

    Still, where there’s a George, there’s a way.

  3. Is this some late April Fools joke? Please tell me it is.

  4. I’m hoping for a restored Star Wars Holiday Special DVD.

  5. Star Wars has been dead to me for over a decade. Now they are desecrating the corpse. Pathetic.

  6. Really ? I thought CN’s The Clone Wars was a comedy …

  7. “I find your lack of pants disturbing.”

    (Cue laugh track)

    Can?t wait to check out this train wreck.

  8. Wasn’t Episode One a comedy?

  9. No, Eddie. It was just a really bad joke.

  10. I look forward to the ‘Fantastic Voyage’ homage episode where we get to meet the midichlorians.

  11. @ Phil: I like Star Wars The Clone Wars.

  12. If this was SOLELY Seth Green and Matt Senreich’s project, I would be ecstatic. Their Robot Chicken/Star Wars stuff has been brilliant. But the involvement of others has me less than enthused, especially when Green and Senreich have been relegated to “creative involvement”.
