George Lucas and Seth Green Debut New “Star Wars” Cartoon

Through the Star Wars movies and Clone Wars cartoons, we got to know the main and side characters through their major exploits across the galaxy. But what about “what the daily life is like in a galaxy far, far away”? Well, now producers George Lucas and Seth Green are going to let us see that, in the form of a new cartoon series called ‘Star Wars Detours’.

Here is what their YouTube description for the trailer had to say:

Star Wars Detours™ is an animated comedy that explores what daily life is like in a galaxy far, far away. There are no Empires striking back or attacking clones here. Instead, Star Wars Detours focuses on the universe’s regular folks and their everyday problems… which, to be fair, do frequently involve famous bounty hunters, crazed Ewoks, and even a Dark Lord of the Sith.

Check out the trailer and let us know what you think:

I have loved technology for as long as I can remember - and have been a computer gamer since the PDP-10! Mobile Technology has played a major role in my life - I have used an electronic companion since the HP95LX more than 20 years ago, and have been a 'Laptop First' person since my Compaq LTE Lite 3/20 and Powerbook 170 back in 1991! As an avid gamer and gadget-junkie I was constantly asked for my opinions on new technology, which led to writing small blurbs ... and eventually becoming a reviewer many years ago. My family is my biggest priority in life, and they alternate between loving and tolerating my gaming and gadget hobbies ... but ultimately benefits from the addition of technology to our lives!

Some people are very angry, calling Lucas a sell out. I’m excited. I think this will be stupidly entertaining. My 12 year old son thought it was hilarious. We cant wait to see it. I havent been able to fin when and where the show will air. Does anybody have that info?

  Oh puh-lease! Lucas ‘sold out’ when he started licensing like a madman and got billions of toys on shelves and then wrapped Return of the Jedi ideas around some of that marketing strategy …
  
  And I am with you … in terms of beign excited and not yet knowign where and when to find it.

Can’t wait. No matter what Lucas does I’ll still be a fan (of the content not George himself). I’m a big fan of Clone Wars series, and excited to see “real world problems” of Star Wars crew.
