    Liked it. I think I'd actually watch a Lego SW show if there was one. They may not be laugh-out-loud-funny, but they have a nice balance of humor and adventure.

    I'm just wondering how they can have this on CN, while TCW has been wiped off the network.. Aren't they both prequel era stuff?

    I don't get it either, do they still have some rights that have yet to expire? You'd think it'd air on Disney XD

    Perhaps because Disney are honouring the contracts that Lucasfilm made prior to them being sold? Or CN contributed to their funding so Disney can't exactly take it away from them or forbid them to air it if they already have the airing rights in place. TCW was much easier to cancel as CN's rights to air it finished at the end of S5. I believe the rumour with TCW was that they negotiated the airing rights every year. Disney obviously chose to not pick up that option again.

    New trailer for "Menace of the Sith"



    Not sure what to make of it, but that last line was very.... Simpsons.

    Perhaps TCW got cancelled because it didn't know how seriously to take itself.

    The whole thing looked sorta Simpsons to me.

    "Feel the power of the Dark Side...BLECH." Somehow I just saw Nelson and Bart on the playground at Springfield Elementary.

    Was that Faramir who knocked Maul's torso off? Because it really looked like Faramir.

    Cad Bane is deconstructing your EU... one block at a time.

    Mark Hamill is voicing the clone right? Interesting he does a voice in this
    before TCW (if that ever does happen..)

    About halfway through now.... I'll admit I'm finding it more amusing than it ought to be. There's been some real zinger one-liners.

    Case in point: Cad Bane: "My air tubes!!! I need those for.... something... or other."

    Anakin: "We're going to an exciting planet of adventure and contemplation!"
    Kid (dejected): "It's Hoth, isn't it?"
    Other kids: "Awwwwwwww...."

    Definitely recommended!

    I least, I think I recommend it. I dunno. I feel almost guilty laughing at a kids show like that. Maybe it wasn't all that funny and my sense of humor broke.

    I really was going to give it a chance but just seeing the pictures feels like it might be enough...

    I liked the first one more. Wish they didn't feel the need to include those Padawans in every single segment, but I liked seeing Anakin. LOL at the kid telling him he's a great Jedi but not a good actor..

    For UK fans, the current issue of What Satellite magazine gave Sep 14 as a date for this. Hopefully I can confirm a time when Sep 14 schedules show up in the Sky EPG (later tomorrow most likely.).

    Well, I have a time for this but it's during the morning. Episodes 1 & 2 will be back-to-back on Cartoon Network (Sky channel 601) from 11:00 - noon on Saturday Sep 14. I'm sure there are later showings during the day but the program guide won't go that far yet.

    Well, the EPG let me see that there is a repeat of the episodes from 5-6 PM on the same day and channel as above. I'll check tomorrow for anything later than that.
