Yeah it was the episodes, sans commercials, advertised as 'the Young Indy Movies' or somesuch. I agree they were well done and occasionally interesting, but overall somewhat boring. I think the key points that would make a Star Wars TV series work, at the very least, would be not to pander to merchandising or worry about syndication formatting (IE obvious commercial breaks) but to make something that could easily flow as stand-alone mini movies themselves. Perhaps something like HBO or Showtime could be the place for them (I know, I know... but what about us who don't have those pay networks... cuz I don't) as I think those networks have a higher standard of quality than most any other (IE USA or Sci-Fi).
Also, it would be great if some decent Sc-Fi authors could be brought aboard like was done with the original Star Trek series.
