At long last we may finally be getting the answer to the question that has plagued us since last April.  When is the 'Bonus Content' for The Clone Wars coming? Jedi News is reporting that the long awaited Bonus Content for the Emmy award winning animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars will be hitting TV screens in Germany starting February 15th on the channel SUPER RTL.  SUPER RTL  put out a press release today revealing that "season 6" would be airing at 20:15 local time on Saturdays, beginning February 15th.  More interestingly however, is that they will showing the arcs as feature length presentations made up of the four episodes, rather than one 22 minute episode each week.

Below is the Google translated version of the Press Release:

START: SATURDAY, 15 FEBRUARY AT 20.15 CLOCK, FOUR EPISODES FEATURE-LENGTH
 
EXCLUSIVE PREMIERE AT SUPER RTL: SIXTH SEASON OF THE ANIMATED SERIES "STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS" GERMAN PREMIERE
 
The high-class CGI series Star Wars: The Clone Wars (USA 2012) is one of the strongest quote formats of Primetime at SUPER RTL. Fans of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker come thanks staged action-packed space battles, exciting political conflicts, and epic battles their money. From the 15th February can look forward to a very special premiere the audience. Every Saturday at 20.15 clock shows SUPER RTL, the sixth season for the first time on German television.

The captivating series offshoot of George Lucas' Star Wars universe plays between the movies "Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones" and "Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith". It tells the story of the epic Clone Wars, which is illuminated in all its facets. The Jedi Order is desperately trying to defeat the Separatists under the cunning Dooku, to save the Galactic Republic. But Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Ahsoka Tano are often outnumbered, as the droid armies of the Separatists are cheap to replace and easy. Only through courage, cohesion and ingenuity, it can manage to end the war and to bring lasting peace to the galaxy. Master Yoda for a special mission to fulfill, as a devious enemy from the past could soon have a mystical weapon with tremendous strength. To prevent this must be Master Yoda embark on a long journey in which he will explain the disappearance of a fellow Jedi to reveal the secret of his hidden enemy.

An interesting note about the press release, it makes mention of Ahsoka Tano who (spoiler alert) left the Jedi Order at the end of Season 5.  Could this mean she'll be appearing in the bonus content?  That's just speculation on my part, it could, of course, also just be a reference the first five seasons of the show.

Hopefully this means we can expect an announcement about how and when the Bonus Content will be airing around the world very soon.
