Star Wars: Clone Wars (November 7, 2003 - March 25, 2005) is an animated Star Wars television series that chronicles the Clone Wars between the Republic under Chancellor Palpatine and the Confederacy of Independent Systems under Count Dooku. Chronologically the series takes place between the events of Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones and Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.
The series is produced by Genndy Tartakovsky and employs a similar animation style to Tartakovsky's Samurai Jack.
The series consists of three-minute installments for Season 1 and 2 (also known as Volume 1) and twelve to fifteen minutes in the Season 3 (which is Volume 2) that are mostly comprised of energetic set-piece battles. The series follows the Jedi on their exploits fighting Dooku's separatist confederation. Many characters in the series are also featured prominently in the films, such as Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Mace Windu, C-3PO, R2-D2 and Padmé Amidala, but others such as Kit Fisto, Shaak Ti and Aayla Secura are only seen briefly in the films.
The series won an Emmy award for "Outstanding Animated Program" in 2004. George Lucas said the series might return but in a half-hour format. [1]
