Remember Star Wars Detours?
The comedy Star Wars animated series developed before Disney took over the reigns that, let’s be honest, looks really bad and was inspired by George Lucas’ love for the Family Guy Star Wars specials never saw the light of day despite being teased as the first animated series featuring the original trilogy characters but now, it seems this may no longer be the case.
Detours is a show that many – myself included – know is going to be bad but, being the real Star Wars fans we are, really want to see it and word is that we may be getting it on Disney+ next month.
We already know that new animated series Star Wars: The Bad Batch is debuting on Star Wars Day, May 4th and now we’re hearing it may not be the only ‘new’ Star Wars content that day.
The series stars real Star Wars, em, stars such as Ahmed Best as Jar Jar Binks, Anthony Daniels as C-3PO and Billy Dee Williams as Lando Calrissian and they’re joined by well-known names such as Seth Green, Catherine Taber, Andy Richter, Weird Al Yankovic and Seth MacFarlane as Palpatine, bringing back his turn as the character from the likes of Robot Chicken.
Anyway, would you like to see this released? Would it make you Star Wars Wall of Weird? Let me know all your thoughts and keep your eyes peeled on May the fourth…

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
