Star Wars headed to TV as a sitcom?

What!!!!!!!!!!!

Lucasfilm Animation said Monday that "Star Wars" is coming to TV as an animated comedy series. The sitcom is still in development and doesn't have a title yet.

Lucasfilm says it will explore the comic aspects of that "galaxy far, far away" as it playfully and irreverently confronts the saga's characters and mythology.

Part of the creative team is Seth Green, who helped hatch the popular "Robot Chicken." He promises the new show will answer the question, "What do these Star Wars characters do when they're not overthrowing Empires?"

No network or start date was announced for the series.


This can either be really really bad, or really really good...
In any case, i think it will be great. Being a huge fan of Seth Green's work as a producer and director, Robot Chicken, Titan Maximum and other works are some of my favorite shows on television. I watch these shows every night before going to bed. Seth Green is brilliant, and as a huge fan of Star Wars i think if this idea got into the hands of anyone else (even George Lucas himself), i would probably kill myself so i don't have to live in a world where Star Wars was slaughtered and raped like how Indiana Jones was. What do you think?

P.S.
I am not slandering the great George Lucas, just saying he isn't suited for comedy or sitcoms is all. I mean honestly.. Look what he did to Indiana Jones.
