Interesting. I thought they might do an OT era animated show to compliment TCW someday. Weren't they going to make a post-RotJ animated series though or was that just a rumour?

Ah, the wonders of having cast away the EU. Now I can actually look forward to this without worrying about it rear-ending continuity.

I bet they are gonna have a hard time following that whole "Rebels have only scored one major victory against the Empire"-thing, though. Season finales tend to want to go dramatic. And I just can't envision this as some close, personal show where individual dramas can do the trick.

Quite optimistic about this. The visuals and score, writing and acting in TCW was getting better by the series, and I have no doubt that that would translate over to this series, too, especially with Filoni at the controls (who is also a big fan of the EU, by the way). Add to that the era it's set in, and I'm very excited about this.

And I definitely want to see Ahsoka.
