The Force will soon be coming to a television near you.
George Lucas finally publicly announced Tuesday he is planning a live-action television series spinoff of the "Star Wars" film franchise. Lucas told The Los Angeles Times he has "just begun work" on the series, which will not include the films' major characters Luke Skywalker or Darth Vader.
"The Skywalkers aren't in it, and it's about minor characters," Lucas told the Times.
Lucas wouldn't reveal details, but joked that the series would be about "the life of robots." (Hoojibs anyone?)
Lucas already has another television series in the works. Lucas Animation has been working for months on the computer-animated "Star Wars: The Clone Wars."
Too bad the people who could assure viewers they are getting the best possible viewing experience are no longer willing to verify this program.

"It's all the Star Wars you don't care about!"
I hope it's all based on the Star Wars Christmas Special. I need me some Ackmena, Lumpy, and Itchy!
Ackmena! Dear Christ you know the name of the "woman" Bea Arthur played!
Oh, yeah, I knew it off the top of my head- I certainly didn't google "star wars christmas special" and find the name there, because that would be cheating.
Also: Bea Arthur = HOT
