Apparently, don't quote me on this, but Grievous may have a big role in this, which, as I am sure you all know, will make me happy 🙂Hopefully seeing him kill many Jedi.
And does this mean we can use this series as canon in other SW areas?
Why do you people have such a problem viewing the EU as canon?

Shut up, dude. You know full well the feature animated film is the kick-off for the television series. We have no idea about it's status canonwise. It's the more elegant solution.
An dyou know the rule: if you don't like it, post somewhere else.
Where does it differ from the Clone Wars, Ewoks, Droids, Caravan of Courage?
Plus I think it's a nice separation from the live action movies. Lucas always said the Skywalker story is over, now he's continuing... it's rather confusing.
So we discuss the old Clone Wars as well in here.
Besides we have a PT forum, and OT forum and a EU forum. This series fits in neither of these forums, and merging OT and PT doesn't sound like a good idea for now. But maybe in the future we will do that.
Just accept it and fill this new forum with your lovely signature Clone love.
Opinions on canon are like raindrops. It's rather early for us to be forming a policy on it yet for this area as we have very little to go on. Our policy elsewhere is based on what we could gather from decent sources.
Much later we can come to a decision on this. For now I'd just recommend people be aware that the series may or may not be paying attention to EU elements.

But this really is the PT....
PT=Prequel TRIlogy... TRI means three.... This film would make it PQ=Prequel Quadrilogy... and that is not official. As Ush said, we don't know if this is EU or canon yet.
And even then... it's NOT PT and it's animated and purposely aimed at TV. The pilot is theatrical, but it's still for tv.

Sooner or later, people are going to have to realize that the Trilogies are over.

This is the new Star Wars. Like it or not, its going to be canon. It will integrate EU elements, but it seems as if its simply cannonizing them.
Look at how Lucas took the third Season of Clone Wars. It led directly into ROTS, setting up the entire film. Now honestly, since this is truely Lucas' project, even down to its assuredly horrible script, how can you even consider that this will not be canon? Its absurd. Canon doesn't end with ROTS. The live-action TV series will be treated the same way...canon. It doesn't matter what media it is produced for. If anything, a theatrical release gives it MORE credibility. What canon comes down to is Lucas involvement, which, for this case, is unpreceidented in an "only by the stringest of definitions" EU project.
