I'm more interested in a concept of this show than TCW, but can it last as long? I don't know. Without the constant lightsaber duels, I think children will lose interest. Also, plot lines will be harder to create than TCW. I say its good for 2 seasons, but that's it.
It has a bigger gap then the clone wars, clone wars had 6 seasons in 2 years during the clone wars, and it lasted 6 years, the clone wars time period from it was 22 BBY - 20 BBY, and rebels takes place in 5 BBY so I can see a lot of shit happening from 5 BBY - 0 BBY, especially for starkiller stuff.

If they decide to allow Starkiller's character to be in it. I doubt it, though. Starkiller's main impact on the story was to bring the Rebel leaders together, but it looks like this new show is going to retcon it.
Yeah he might still be canon, he just doesn't do anything to create the rebellion, he could possibly just replace a inquisitor like jerec was replaced by this Pa'un "inquisitor"
