New SW: The Clone Wars Tonight!

The Clone Wars normally air on Friday, but there's a special episode tonight on Cartoon Network!

The first chapter in a massive four-part story arc, the Geonosian campaign begins with The Landing at Point Rain, a SPECIAL PRESENTATION of STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS airing at 8:00pm ET/PT this WEDNESDAY, November 4 on Cartoon Network.

Anakin, Ahsoka and Ki-Adi-Mundi lead a landing party to destroy a droid factory that Poggle the Lesser has rebuilt on Geonosis, but things go terribly awry when Separatist gunners shoot down the Republic ships. Despite heavy losses, Anakin and Ki-Adi-Mundi must rendezvous in time to destroy the enemy factory before it can begin production.

Featuring far more intensity than has been seen previously in THE CLONE WARS series, the action-packed episode pushed the limits of Lucasfilm Animation's production processes, showcasing the depth and breadth of the animated galaxy far, far away in ways that hadn't been possible before.
