No offense to CineLinx, but I'm not familiar with their site. I have no clue if they if have a track record of being right about any of their "scoops." But, a few sites have been running this story so I decided to put it out there and let you guys digest it. They claim that in addition to Disney casting for Star Wars VII, there are auditions taking place for live-action television projects.
According to my source, who I can't name, Disney's casting auditions for Star Wars haven't just been limited to the upcoming film, Episode VII. Rather, they were told the people holding the auditions were casting for roles in as yet unannounced television projects including "specials and mini-series". - CineLinx

The image on the right, is a leaked image from the European Brand Licensing Show, and it mentions a Darth Vader-themed television special. Since that image came out there has be no discussion of that rumored project, but perhaps this new rumor is related. Or, perhaps not.

As long as George Lucas is not allowed on the same continent as the scripts for these projects, then I say go for it.

It's going to be called "Vader Knows Best" and will air on A&E.

Well this is cool. Didn't they say before the show was cancelled that they had 30-40 episodes of the Star Wars tv show written at one time. They wanted to wait until the technology caught up to bring the cost down per episode. Rumor was it was a band of characters being chased by Boba Fett. Wonder if that became the new Rebels cartoon show? Either way, cool!
