Star Wars: Clone Wars is an American science fiction animated microseries created, directed, produced and co-written by Genndy Tartakovsky, set in the Star Wars universe. Produced and released between the films Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, it is the first of many Star Wars works to explore the conflict known as the Clone Wars set between the two, and directly leads to the events of Revenge of the Sith.
The show follows the actions of various characters from the Star Wars prequel trilogy, notably Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu, Yoda, and other Jedi Knights, as well as the clone troopers, in their war against the battle droid armies of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Sith. The series created many concepts which were later re-used in other Star Wars works, notably the character of Asajj Ventress and the ARC troopers, and introduced the character of General Grievous for the first time.
The series aired on Cartoon Network for three seasons consisting of 25 episodes from 2003 to 2005, and was the first Star Wars television series since Star Wars: Ewoks in 1986. The first two seasons of Clone Wars, known together as "Volume One", were produced in a two- to three-minute "micro" format, while season three consisted of five fifteen-minute episodes making up "Volume Two". Both volumes were later released on home video edited as feature-length films. Since release, the series has received critical acclaim and won multiple awards, including the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program twice for both of its volumes.
