Lucasfilm has given us a gander at the new spin on the rebroadcast of the first season of Clone Wars.

Like a galactic pop-up video, they’ll be giving us twice the information packed into every episode.

Coming off of the record-setting first season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Cartoon Network announced today it will premiere Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Decoded, a full slate of 22 enhanced episodes from season one of the CG-animated series from creator George Lucas and Lucasfilm Animation. Using text windows to provide in-the-moment insights into all aspects of the sweeping galactic conflict—from trivia to background on characters and storylines—Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Decoded enhances each episode with exclusive content created by the Lucasfilm Animation talent responsible for the show itself.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Decoded is Cartoon Network’s first-ever season-long commitment to enhancing the content of existing series episodes. Offering a new twist on the beloved series and serving as an unprecedented primer for faithful fans as well as new viewers, Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Decoded premieres Friday, May 1, at 9 p.m. ET/PT only on Cartoon Network. This full season of enhanced episodes will continue each Friday at 9 p.m. ET/PT, the regular time slot for Star Wars: The Clone Wars, leading up to the fall 2009 premiere of season two.

It gives me a reason to watch season 1 all over again on TV.

Allow me to preface this with that I LOVE the Clone Wars cartoon, I really do…

However, Clone Wars: Decoded (or enhanced, or whatever the shit this is being called) should really be called what it actually is:
“Star Wars: The Clone Wars: George Lucas Wants More Money for Something You’ve Already Seen… Much Like Star Wars Episodes IV, V, & VI ‘Special Edition’… But I Digress. Give George Lucas Your Money”

I know, it’s a long title, and kind of a mouth full, but it is what it is.

You do know that this is available for free on television, right?

And it’s for Star Wars sourcebook nerds like me.

I highly doubt that George Lucas doesn’t get something every time an episode of Clone Wars airs…

I won’t pretend how TV works or anything like that, but isn’t it called “Royalties”?

George Lucas is a cad of the highest caliber, that would just as soon steal candy from a robot baby, as he would from an inferior human infant! This is an outrage and I wouldn’t be surprised if Mr. Lucas gets a little note from my lawyer. Which is me.

Are you paying for this? No? I didn’t think so.

I’m not 100% sure how royalties work, but…I don’t think it works quite like that.

The reruns were going to air anyway. He’s not going to get extra money just because he added some pop-ups to the show.

This is just a little gimmick to get more people to watch during the off-season. I see no problem with it. It’s not something I would cancel plans to stay home and watch, but at least it’s a fun little extra in case I’m home and it happens to be on.

I agree with the Casual one, this might not even be a Lucas idea. But I will say that it’s a better way to show reruns than the regular way.

I’m surprised that instead of this good idea you didn’t criticize the still horrendous idea to add CGI shiz and Hayden Christian to the original three w/o any option of a cleaned up version of the original. GGRRRR!! So in closing, Dr. Cyborg might have a case here.
