    So, let's talk about the SW TV series (SWTVS?) that are based on existing non-sci-fi TV series.

    Jar-Jar get's his spin-off series called Jar-Jar where he moved from Naboo to another planet where he gets into all sorts of problems. Basically a sit-com based on Joey.

    TV series about the life and times of Boba Fett where he is living a normal life but only on the surface. He really is not such a nich guy and has organized crime connections. Based on Sopranos....

    The Clone Wars and the years after brin a lot of misery and dead people, aliens and clones. So a lot of funerals....think Six Feet Under were we follow an intergalactic undertaker making a living out of the dead.

    Any other idea's?

    JAG: Empire
    Imperial Officers from the JAG office investigate crimes within the Imperial Millitary

    Law & Order: Rebel Terrorist Unit
    The Imperial Authorities investigate an prosecute Rebels.

    Mail Call: Imperial Forces
    a show where people write in and ask about Imperial Millitary Equipment. A faux documentary style.

    Baa Baa Black TIE
    A show about a TIE unit that is composed of mostly screw-ups, but they still distinguish themselves.

    The Fresh Prince of Ord Mandell
    Um...perhaps not.

    Cool, thanks!

    Clones and the city.....? Nha.


    Or a 'reality show' called The Apprentice. That could work! "You're fired .... and disintegrated".

    Keep them coming, there should be more.....

    "Solofeld" - Smuggler Han Solo moves into an apartment on Coruscant. His best friend is Luke, he still hangs out with ex-girlfriend Leia, and Chewbacca the Wookie is his crazy nextdoor neighbor who invites himself over whenever he feels like it in this show about nothing.

    "Fett: The Bounty Hunter" - Boba Fett gets married, has a couple of kids, and heads an entire family of bounty hunters in his own weekly reality series.

    "Anchorhead 90210" - Luke and his buddies experience teen life. (Perhaps this could also be called "Beggar's Canyon" instead of "Dawson's Creek." :D )

    There should be a sitcom with Vader and palpatine where Vader tries to get out of odd situations with his boss, a bit like that Simpsons episode ( 22 short films about springfeild) where principle skinner gets out of a situation with superintendent chalmers.

    "Lost Planet" -- A luxury starcruiser crash lands on an unchartered planet that at first glance appears to be uninhabited by any higher life forms. But as time passes and no rescue appears imminent, strange things begin happening that lead the survivors to question whether they are indeed all alone.

    There's already a Sith Apprentice fan film with The Emperor in the Donald Trump role. Vader, Count Dooku, Darth Maul and Jar Jar Binks are the contestants. It is awesome to watch.

    Survivor: Dagobah

    The Sith Apprentice (Instead of saying "you're fired" Palps would simply fry the week's loser with lightning. "You're fried")

    "Hey, I like the idea of Darth Vader doing an "Apprentice" type show."

    As someone already said that's already been done and it's very funny! You can see it on Atom Films I think.

    Lord Vaders Flying Circuis. The famous "Argument Sketch" but in the Galactic Senate. You know you want it.

    This has been said before, but how about Smallville with Luke and his friends.

    Luke has these strange powers as uses the force unexpectedly.

    Biggs could be like Lex, he's rich, has better clothes, he drives a new speeder.

    Luke's adoptive parents try to teach their son on a farm the value of family, hard work and love.

    Luke could try and get with Camie, but Fixer is in the picture.

    This is probably the funniest thread at TFN. :) How about one that has Vader's comic antics at work doing stuff like...

    -building a bed under his desk so he can sleep in his office
    -sleeping with the cleaning lady
    -saying he's a communist to meet women
    -leaving his TIE Adv parked outside the office round the clock to make Sidious think he's burning the candle at both ends.

    DS615, If it wasn't a joke, I would actually tune in for the shows Empire and Baa Baa TIE. Sad, I know.

    'The Cantina' - based on Cheers

    Either 'Imperial Idol', where Vader chokes the bad contestants or 'Tatooine Idol' where Jabba presses a button and the bad contestants are eaten by the Rancor.

    Two twentysomething Jedi escape the purge and must disguise themselves as elderly women to stay in a rest home on Coruscant.

    Cloud City COPS.

    The Hutts (the Sopranos).

    A show where Darth Vader has to stop a terrorist Rebel threat in 24 hours.

    Hee hee.
