The animated TV series Star Wars: The Clone Wars (not to be confused with it's big screen companion) has found a home on Canadian TV. According to TheStar.com, the series will be airing this fall on CTV on Sunday nights.
UPDATE: Friend of TFN, Bryan P., wrote to let us know that the CTV website now has a page dedicated to The Clone Wars series. See it right here! What I found interesting was that they also display a short cast list. (Did they list Mathew Wood correctly? Shouldn't he be referenced from Ep. III? Am I just being too nitpicky? Most likely:)
Matt Lanter as the voice of Anakin; Ashley Eckstein as the voice of Ahsoka; Tom Kane (Kim Possible) as the voice of Yoda; James Arnold Taylor as the voice of Obi-Wan; Anthony Daniels (Star Wars) as the voice of C3PO; Matthew Wood (Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace) as the voice of General Grievous.
Thanks Bryan!
UPDATE #2: Friend of TFN, Alex S., sent over the following regarding The Clone Wars on Canadian TV:
"Just wanted to drop off a message stating that the Clone Wars animated series will be premiering October 10th at 4pm PST on the Canadian Space Channel.
UPDATE #3:Canada.com has listed the fall schedule for CTV which includes The Clone Wars. See the relevant info below...
"Star Wars: The Clone Wars, an animated series of weekly 30-minute "mini- movies'' based on the summer animation film and featuring the additional adventures of Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Padme Amidala. Airs Sundays at 7 p.m. Originates from the U.S. cable channel Cartoon Network."
Sunday: 7 p.m. - Star Wars: The Clone Wars 8 p.m. - The Amazing Race 9 p.m. - Desperate Housewives 10 p.m. - The Listener
We're assuming that since an hour is blocked off, after the 2 episode premier new episodes will follow repeat airings.
Thanks to Craig for the info!
UPDATE #4: To tie together the intial post and the updates above...The first 2 episodes of The Clone Wars in Canada will premiere on Sunday night October 5th at 7pm on CTV. Subsequent weeks will have a repeat airing at 7pm and new episodes at 7:30. Encore airings of TCW will be on SPACE on Friday evenings and it looks like Saturdays as well.
