Apparently, casting has begun for the live-action Star Wars TV series. Personally, I think the Clone Wars animated show is complete shit and I'm glad to hear that they're working on something that sounds halfway decent.
In case you're too lazy to click, here's part of the article:
"Set between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, the show has been described by Lucas as “Deadwood meets The Sopranos in space”. Told from the perspective of minor characters from the Star Wars galaxy (rumored to be a family in the underworld), the darker, grittier, more character-based story might also feature appearances and cameos from several major Star Wars characters, but not the heavy like Darth Vader.And now that the show has entered the casting stage, I’m sure we’ll start to learn more about the story and the characters."
swearing, drinking, whores and violence, gotta love it

darker and grittier... than what? The Clone Wars? That's not encouraging because it couldn't be more retarded than that.
Though I DO hope to see Vader around! I DO hope to see senator Organa! I DO hope to see Chewbacca or Han Solo.
But I DO hope they stick to the cameo's and appearances and do not take over the show like Anakin & Obi-Wan in The Clone Wars. Why do I want them in it? Because it's star wars and they should at least give some foothold in the star wars universe because I don't expect to see many (if any) lightsabre or use of the force. If you include Vader in one or two episodes it would give him more presence and power and it would give the show something extra

something original? For some reason I'm doubting you ever saw a Clone Wars episode

thus you should know by now they won't come up with something original or if, once in a blue moon, they do they'll professional screw it up in such a way pornstars would become jealous!

and to think they would solve this mess by simply casting me ...

Well... yes. He did in 1977, he did in 1980... a little less in 1983. Even the touch ups on the trilogy in the 90s were nice. And he did again instill some confidence with ROTS.... But that took two movies to get going... and now it's back to mediocre crap.
