I was a casual fan of Star War: The Clone Wars.  By that, I mean I tuned in from time to time and watched the hyped up episodes.  What I did watch I really enjoyed, and I was looking forward to seeing how the showrunners would wrap up the show.  That’s why the fanboy in me was crushed when The Clone Wars went on an indefinite hiatus after Disney purchased Lucasfilm.

Have no fear Star Wars fans, we will be getting a short run of episodes to properly conclude the series. Supervising Director David Filoni has revealed via Facebook that the remaining episodes, will be released next year.  Here’s the full post:

Star Wars fans – I have some exciting news! We have wrapped production on all of the remaining Star Wars: The Clone Wars episodes, and while that might be sad news in one way, it’s good news in another. It means you will finally get to see them. When, exactly, is a detail I cannot yet share. I can confirm that in early 2014 you will be watching the final episodes of The Clone Wars, including one of Master Yoda’s most challenging missions. So, get ready. We’ve got Clone Wars and Rebels coming at you in 2014. Animated Star Wars is alive and well. Trust in the Force my friends.

New movies starting in 2015, the return of Star Wars video games, wrap up of the Clone Wars, and the kickoff of Star Wars Rebels: its a good time for fans of Star Wars.  Stay tuned to see when and where the final episodes of The Clone Wars will be airing.
