Change.org Old Republic Era petition reaches 195,000 signatures



The change.org petition to bring the Old Republic era of Star Wars to a TV Show on Netflix is gaining signatures. It's goal 200,000 is only a short stretch away. The original petition featured these quotes:
The Knights of the Republic series of games as well as the MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic serve as the main vehicles to tell stories of characters such as Darth Revan, Darth Malak, Bastila Shan, Darth Traya, Meetra Surik, Darth Malgus, Satele Shan, and the list goes on. The popularity of this era in Star Wars history is felt throughout the fanbase, and I feel it would do a massive disservice to us if these stories weren’t told.
Why Netflix was chosen was because of the wealth of great content they have produced over the years, such as Narcos, House of Cards, and especially everything that Marvel has done and is still currently working on. Not only that, but Netflix can serve as a platform to tell these stories as they were meant to be portrayed: dark, foreboding, and a touch on the mature side. This can also give us fans our healthy dose of Star Wars while we’re waiting on the new movies or the new season of Star Wars Rebels.
The Old Republic era is a pivotal point in the Star Wars timeline because that’s where everything changed, from the Jedi Civil War and the fall of Revan, the First Jedi Purge, and an omnipresent darkness that not only watched the chaos from afar but also kick-started the downfall. Our fanbase would love to see this on Netflix, and I feel that you would enjoy creating and adapting these stories as much as we would enjoy watching them.
Once the goal has been reached, the request will be sent to the Walt Disney Company. The Pre-Phantom Menace era is a great area that could be used by a TV Show,  and fans have been craving a new show after the cancelling of "Star Wars: The Clone Wars". "Star Wars Rebels" is not unnoticed, but fans could be looking for something a little more mature.

The Old Republic era is prior to the Phantom Menace, and the Rule Of Two created by Darth Bane. Under this rule there can only be two Sith. A master and an apprentice. Before this time, the Jedi and the Sith were both very large groups. This era is not widely touched. The "Knights Of The Old Republic" video games is featured in this era, but video games are not cannon. A show made by Disney would fit that bill.

So make sure you sign this Change.org petition: Change.org
