If true, this could be good as long as Lucas doesn't write or direct. And best to keep Berman and Braga away from it, too.

Star Wars TV scoop

This is one of those “My best friend's cousin” stories, but apparently it is legit, a report of the new STAR WARS tv show sent by one of our regular spies from a thespian pal, who writes:

“I just wrapped principle shooting on a new Star Wars project called ”Forced Alliance“--basically, it's a 30-minute short film that George Lucas wants to use as a template for where the franchise is headed from here. In a nutshell, Luke Skywalker is now an old man & has trained a whole new generation of Jedi knights--but these aren't the old-fashioned, pure & chaste Jedi. These Jedi have good hearts but sordid pasts--and their fighting style is a combination of The Force & good old street smarts.”

According to this spy, the climactic scene of the pilot is a light-saber duel between a former pirate/smuggler/gambler turned Jedi villain Darth Teros, silhouetted against a giant window that looks out onto the starry universe.

This sounds like it would almost be a good idea.
Everyone knows we are all going to give it a watch.

I'm thinking Enterprise, except with the Force...

I guess I shouldn't knock it until I see it, but Star Wars seems grander on the big screen.

Due to these facts, it might be ok. But TV series generally are flawed when the originate from the big screen…, imo.

Lucas mentioned when Ep3 came out that there would be a TV series of Star Wars.
