AOTC AT TEN: A LITTLE PRACTICE...


In the serene and enlightened environment of the Jedi Temple, Master Yoda enjoys some quality time teaching the younglings in a scene from EPISODE II.

It looks like the next animated TV series coming from LUCASFILM after the quirky STAR WARS: DETOURS will be one for younger THE CLONE WARS viewing fans, dedicated to Ahsoka and Jedi younglings and Padawans, titled Young Jedi, which apparently had a positive reaction from those who saw several episodes of it at Celebration VI.

Though I wish the new endeavour success (as if it isn't going to be a hit!), on a more personal note of disappointment, I would have much preferred to see a well-made and exciting Classic Trilogy animated series instead of another show set during the CLONE WARS era (and how much longer does the 2008 created series actually have to run? My guess is Season Seven will be the last, of which Young Jedi will kick in by the time it's penultimate year stars). The classic and iconic adventures of Luke and our heroes now seem to be considered ancient history by their creator and LUCASFILM these days, treating it only for pure merchandising and comedy value in projects like DETOURS...
