The funny thing is Lucas did those ewok movies himself so they'd be quality and they turned out mostly crap. Though fans have inexplicably tolerant toward them. Wilfred Brimley was very good in the second one though.
There was a whole ewok industry in the mid to lateish 80s. There wasn't just the show and the tv movies. There was a series of painful books with all sorts of silly cutesey stuff of the sort that turned up in the show. The sort of crap that was in the show started in books in 1984. The ewok show was basically care bears in space. Excruciating.

Can you imagine if Lucas revisisted the ewok tv movies and added cgi that ruined them or put Jar Jar in there.
Jar Jar would fit in fine in the ewok movies. They were his level. But back then Lucas wasn't pushing that sort of stuff as serious Star Wars.
