Hey thanks for posting. grin

What I really like is this sentence;

"Some of the writers under consideration have written episodes for Heroes and Lost"

Both those shows were excellently written, IMO, so the fact Lucas is taking the writing side of this show seriously, is fantastic news, IMO. applause

Yeah, its really comforting to hear such shows being associated with Star Wars TV, isn't it?

Both good shows! Except LOST delivered better in it's finale but that's another story. I hope they get Brian K Vaughn!

Well thats down to where the makers of the series' want the series' to go. Not much the writers can do about that. But at least both those shows were well written and it shows that Lucas has understood that to have a really sucessful series, unlike the movies, the script has to be top notch. Its really comforting news.

I hear you man...believe me I will tune in to Heroes next year. Many were disappopinted with the finale but the journey was A ok!! There still isn't any indication who the show runner might be, right??

This is great news and means GL is getting the ball rolling on this show.

This is so exciting to me! New Star Wars every week... man oh man!

This is indeed good news. But no matter how good they are, will depend on Lucas' willingness to allow them the freedom to be creative. With everything else SW, it all hinges on Lucas himself and it's not a good sign that he seem to be taking as much control of this as he did the PT. I really really wish he would just leave Star Wars behind and go do his experimental films.

Some other writers I hope they consider are Aaron Ehasz and the others working on Avatar the Last Airbender. The characterization on that show is just brilliant.

As far as I'm aware thats what Lucas is planning to do, Blackpool. He's going to set up the story, then turn it over to writers. He'll possibly direct the first few episode's, just to start it off, then he's going to step back and let others carry it on, whlie he goes off and makes his "personal" films. At least thats what I thought was always the plan?
