'THE CLONE WARS' - BEYOND SEASON FIVE...

Grant Gould's excellent interpretation of THE CLONES WARS animated series, for the CELEBRATION VI event.

Today's episode of THE CLONE WARS, The Wrong Jedi, brings the fifth season of the hit Cartoon Network series to a close for US viewers. So far, there's no news as to when the shortened 20 episode run will be making it's TV debut in the UK-presumably still on that territory's Cartoon Network, too?- but hopefully it'll be by Easter, with the DVD/Blu-ray release worldwide circa September/October.

As to the future of this worthy STAR WARS series, it won't be long before there's an official announcement. DISNEY would be clueless if they didn't take up the mantle of showing the already in the works Season Six-hopefully starting off with that removed Rush Clovis plotline that was supposed to be early on within Year Five. From the clips I've seen related to that particular storyline, it would certainly get the new run off to a fine start, with Anakin and Padme back as the series prime stars in the build up to the live-action EPISODE III..
