A live-action TV series, set during the period of the Galactic Civil War... with Vader & Palpie still alive'n'kicking... some stories showing us the background of the war, not the usual Jedi-Skywalker-oriented stuff... like Rebel commando raids, Imperial Navy pursuing the Alliance running away from Yavin, smugglers & pirates, anti-imperial uprisings on some remote planets, action-packed space skirmishes like those we know from the old PC game "X-Wing".... all with that cold "look&feel" of Empire Strikes Back...
Is that too much to ask?
Why can't they do something like this? It's in their powers...
But no.... tell you guys, with this new TV series we should prepare ourselves for another STAR WARS HOLIDAY SPECIAL
