For the record, Jim Hill Media is a very, very reliable Disney information website.

Disney, eh?
Disney's fire seems to have been dying out over the last decade or so, with PIXAR being one of their sole saving graces. But I guess it all depends on who's working on it.

Well, as far as the TV series is concerned, it sounds like Disney is only trying to get the broadcast rights. The show itself (content, directing, etc.) would still be separate from Disney.

I can't wait for MGM to convert the space in between Indy and Star Wars. Maybe they will convert that restaurant into the cantina.

Since Disney owns ABC I wonder if it would air on that. I can't really picture it on the Disney channel since its not network t.v. "Lucas Land" sounds like a dream come true though!

heh heh yeah I kind of skimmed over that before I posted. Anyway I think that's really exciting news. I'm happy to hear the competition for the show and that it will get plenty of promotion

Interesting. I kinda figfured Lucas would keep his old connections. So, the 3D Cartoon would be aired on the Cartoon Network and the live action series would be aired on FOX, was alwways my assumption. But, I guess not? 
Good find anyway. Thanks for sharing.

Disney has been very lucky to have PIXAR, Pirates, and the High School Musical stuff. Hopefully, lucas dosn't go this direction.

Disney better stay AWAY from this show! Disney is a franchise KILLER! Just like the new Muppet Show series we got last year. What Muppet Show? Exactly!

Disney wouldn't have any involvement really besides reaping the benefits, just like they do with Pixar. They just put their name on it. I think it'd be a good move for it to be on abc. I think the show would last longer if it was on that than fox. Fox pulls a lot of shows before giving them a chance but abc already is keeping lost until its end date of 2010.

I could see them trying to pair up Lost's last season with SW's first on one night.

This has pretty much been my dream since they first announced the live action show. That might be too much awesomeness for me to handle in one night though.
