1) Does anyone actually care about the new show anyway? 

I think kids enjoy the series, so I really don't have a problem with them.  I personally tried watching them once on Cartoon Network, and thought it was unwatchable after 5 minutes.

In saying that, it is a cartoon, and Lucas has never really targeted it towards the older SW crowd, so thats cool with me.  What gets me mad about the PT is that it is marketed to the older SW crowd, and then you have characters like Jar Jar in the movie, who is clearly targeted towards kids.  The Clone Wars Movie/TV Show is clearly for kids, so I never really cared about it, nor do I watch it now.

 

It may not be marketed to adults to the same degree, but it IS meant to be serious Star Wars, the real thing, roughly on the same level as the films, and that's an outrage. It qualifies as real Star Wars even less than the prequels do.

Oh, geez, really?!  Even in television they can't resist the urge to fuck with what they've already done?!  Can anybody in Lucasfilm not tinker with their work?!

Yeah, that's my reaction, too.
