Good to see you back on your thread, Tome! It's an interesting and cool development that the prequel movies, inspired in Lucas in part by classic serial sci-fi (I'm assuming short films or early TV), are coming full circle back to the source of their inspiration with your edits.

It makes perfect sense for the reasons you mentioned for the movies to work in a serial TV show format. I wish I could help with the DVD release, but I'm swamped. I look forward to checking out the individual episodes!
