to life in action-packed animation, the first time original
Star Wars programming has been on television in fifteen
years. .
Like fire across the galaxy, the Clone Wars spread.
Supreme Chancellor Palpatine enlists the Jedi, Obi-Wan

a Separatist stronghold. As the Jedi prepare to lead
the Republic Army to this new battlefront, Anakin must

Synopsis
Kingdom is a hospital whose bizarre population includes
a brilliant surgeon who lives in the basement, a nearly
blind security guard and a nurse who regularly faints
at the sight of blood. But when patients and staff hear
the voice of a girl crying through the halls and a patient
destined for life as a paraplegic miraculously recovers,
they are dismissive of any suggestion of mysticism or
unseen powers at their own peril.
Episode Summary
Artist Peter Rickman is run down by a stoned, two-time
loser driving a minivan. He is admitted comatose to
Kingdom Hospital, but not before encountering a frightening,
ghostly figure whose mission is to use him to rid the
hospital of malevolence, both human and inhuman, and
to free its nine-year old mistress, Mary, from the hospital's
haunted halls. When he awakens in an altered state with
newfound but not necessarily welcome telepathic powers,
Rickman finds he can communicate with the spirits, good
and evil, man and beast, inhabiting the hospital. Mrs.
Druse, a patient with psychic gifts, is the first to
hear the cries of the trapped ghost and attempts to
persuade brilliant, eccentric surgeon Dr. Hook to join
her quest to identify it. She is opposed in this effort
by the hopelessly arrogant and mean-spirited chief neurologist
Dr. Stegman, and the ebullient but vacuous hospital
administrator, Dr. Jesse James, who is concerned only
with the hospital's image.

It's been 40 years since the 12 colonies of mankind

creatures who rose up and declared war on their masters,
then disappeared. In a sudden, devastating strike, the
Cylons return and lay waste to the colonies, aided by
human-looking Cylon variants and an unwitting fifth
columnist. The attack forces Commander William Adama
to call into action his museum-piece warship, the Battlestar
Galactica, and soon its company of hotshot fighter pilots
is blasting away at the invaders. But their best efforts
can't prevent the colonies' obliteration. Fleeing the
Cylon genocide, the Galactica leads a rag-tag fleet
of survivors on a lonely quest to find humanity's fabled
13th colony -- a planet known as Earth.

Summary
Old
Pete Chasing Horse (August Schellenberg), otherwise
known as Grandpa, is the storyteller of the Pine Ridge
Reservation. Nearing a century old, it's Grandpa's duty
to share the legends of his people, lest the stories
lose their power. One boy who could use the wisdom of
the stories is 17-year-old Shane Chasing Horse (Eddie
Spears). A member of the Dog Soldiers, a Native American
street gang, Shane is a world apart from his elders.
At the request of his mother Janine, the boy's been
given a chance to prove himself worthy of his honorable
heritage by delivering Grandpa to the All Nations ceremony
in New Mexico. Shane agrees, but he has a good motive.
He owes his gang money. Getting out of town is good
bet, even if it is with an old man and a broken-down
pick-up truck (aka Many-Miles-With-No-Muffler).
So
begins their trek across the open vistas and distant
Black Hills of South Dakota. Along this peaceful terrain,
and under the calm of the moon, it's also the perfect
time for Grandpa to tell his stories as they were told
to him, perhaps for the last time. It's Shane's duty
to listen, to remember and to keep the legends alive
for the generations to follow. They are visionary stories
of star-crossed lovers, of courage and escape, of patience
and humility, of making peace with the past, and of
facing unknown horizons with an open heart much
like the horizons Shane and Grandpa are about to face
on a journey that will change both their lives forever.
