Anyway, one thing to consider, is that that story is from May 09, yesterday. While the one Sunday posted is from March 19 2006, over a year ago. It is entirely possible something has changed on the TV series front. Lucas is a pretty flacky guy (come on, no matter how much of a hard on you have for him, you simply can't deny his flackiness), tends to change his mind a lot. Though I could never bring myself to believe he would be making two made for TV movie of only an hour long each. That isn't even worthy to be called a made for TV moive, it would be more like a short lived two episode long TV series. I am sure this is not the case. But if the TV series did evolve into two full length made for TV movies, I for one would not be in the least surprised.
It is annoying they are taking place between 3 and 4, does anybody even really care what happened during that time? I think it would be more interesting pre TPM or post ROTJ.
