==Plot==
===Episode I: The Fourth Awakens===
The episode begin with the characters from Star Wars coming to The Walt Disney Studios. R2-D2 and C-3PO meet Cathy, Socky, and the little dumplings. The TV turns on to reveal the Narrator and he tells them the story about Zippy and friends meeting Star Wars. Flambo and Ember break into the Imperial Corporate Offices, steals a disc containing the plans for the Death Star, and rendezvouses with Princess Leia's ship. Meanwhile, on the planet Tatooine, Zippy Skywalker is a prodigy pod racer, the younger cousin of Luke Skywalker, and lives with his parents and brother, Zane as contented moisture farmers. Darth Vader's Star Destroyer intercepts Leia's ship, forcing her to load the disc into R2-D2, but she is observed by a trio of Imperial stormtroopers, including Von, Teddy, and Gary. They attempt to report the actions of the Rebels to the empire but is put down by her commanding officer. After seeing R2-D2 and C-3PO entering an escape pod, the trio decide to pursue them in a second escape pod and prove their worth by recapturing the lost plans, with Flambo and Ember secretly hitching a ride with them.
32 years ago, Queen Padmé Amidala and her Jedi guardians Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi were escaping the Trade Federation's occupation of Naboo. Turbolaser fire from the Federation blockade damages the ship's hyperdrive, in the process sending Jar Jar Binks into the vacuum of space. After a brief repair on the hyperdrive, thanks to R2, her starship runs out of fuel and crash lands on Tatooine, where Qui-Gon, R2 and the queen (disguised as a handmaiden) visit a junk shop where two young Jedi Nigel Baxworth and Larry Zippington meet Anakin Skywalker and C-3PO. Because of Anakin's Force-sensitivity, Qui-Gon offers him a chance at freedom from slavery, while his owner, Watto, loudly sells red flags in the background (a comedic foreshadowing at the outcome of Qui-Gon's decision).
In the present, Darth What's-It's-Face arrives with his Sith apprentice Darth Whiskers at the Death Star. He reveals that he has a new invention that is even more evil, but that requires the Force to power it. Von, Teddy, Shadow, Gary, and the other stormtroopers are on the trail of the droids until their commander sends them into Mos Eisley. Flambo and Ember continues trailing the droids as they are seized by Jawas and sold to Owen Lars, and eventually absconds with R2-D2. They run into Zippy and his friend Wet Willy on their way to Obi-Wan Kenobi's, whom Zippy and Willy are acquainted with as he has given them instruction in the Jedi arts. Despite their offer of a ride, R2-D2 continues on his own while Flambo and Jane remain unseen by the duo, unaware that their collision has resulted in the Death Star disc remaining in the back seat of Zippy's speeder.
Upon discovering the disc, Zippy and Willy set out to return it to R2-D2, which takes them to Mos Eisley where they encounter Watto's son Blatto. With Blatto's help they discover that the disc contains the Death Star plans, and they are pursued after being spotted by Stormtroopers led by Gary. The duo just miss R2-D2 departing with Luke, Obi-Wan, C-3PO, Han Solo, and Chewbacca aboard the Millennium Falcon. The pair meet Jenny who is a rebel pilot and explains the Death Star plans must be sent to Obi-Wan Kenobi. Determined to return the disc, they asked their friend Ceela for help. But she refuses claiming it's not her problem. She changes her mind when her home was destroyed and her parents were kidnapped. Later, while traveling, the four are attacked by scavenging Sand People while searching for them, but are rescued by elderly hermit "Nick" Baxworth, an acquaintance of Zippy's. Master Baxworth tells Zippy of his days as one of the Jedi Knights, the former peacekeepers of the Galactic Republic who drew mystical abilities from a metaphysical energy field known as "the Force", but were ultimately hunted to near-extinction by the Empire. Zippy learns that his father fought alongside Baxworth and Larry as a Jedi Knight during the Clone Wars until What's-It's-Face, Baxworth's former pupil, turned to the dark side of the Force and murdered him. Baxworth offers Zippy his father's old lightsaber, the signature weapon of Jedi Knights.
They travel to the Mos Eisley cantina and are introduced to Zoomie, captain of the Machinable Eagle and an rival of Han Solo's and his co-pilot Jolly. Zoomie agrees to transport them; meanwhile, Von returns to the Death Star. Meanwhile, aboard the Death Star, What's-It's-Face learns that he can extract Force energy from Darth Vader's trash just before the planet Alderaan is destroyed. The Eagle catches up to the Millennium Falcon, but both end up caught in a tractor beam; the Eagle is freed after Ceela modifies the ship so that it can take on the appearance of a doughnut-selling spaceship.
Back in the past, Young Baxworth and Larry watch Anakin enter the Boonta Eve Classic, where he wins the race, earning enough money to buy the hyperdrive and leaving Shmi and 3PO behind. Back at the crashed starship, Red informs the others that the Trade Federation is attacking the capitol of Naboo with its droid army, and Padmé declares that she will protect her people no matter the cost.
Once aboard the Death Star disguised as Stormtroopers, Zippy is surprised and delighted to run into Flambo and Ember. Flambo and Jane make their way to Darth Whiskers' lair, only for Flambo to end up encased in carbonite and left helpless as Darth Whiskers unveils his new Sith-Laser, a machine that will make him a Sith Lord even more evil than Vader. Baxworth leaves the others to turn off the tractor beam, unknowingly passing Obi-Wan Kenobi on the way. After disabling the tractor beam, Baxworth sacrifices himself in a lightsaber duel against What's-It's-Face. Elsewhere, Zippy and Wet Willy run into Von, Hazel, Teddy, and Shadow, who pursues them, only for Ceela to save them. Darth Whiskers is then attacked by a freed Flambo (who is freed by Ember), while Zippy gives Zoomie the Death Star disc to take to the Rebels while he goes looking for Flambo.
Entering What's-It's-Face's lair, Zippy discovers an upgraded Sith-Laser and Darth Vader himself. Upon learning that Vader intends to create an army of Sith and rule the dark side, Zippy reluctantly confronts him in a lightsaber duel, in which both of them upgrade their lightsabers to possess multiple blades. Zoomie travels to Yavin and delivers the Death Star plans, but despite the appeals of Jolly, Willy, Ceela, and Jenny refuses to join the Rebel Alliance. He changes her mind after a tense conversation with Han and Chewbacca, also convincing him to return to the rebels to help Luke. Back on the Death Star, the battles between Flambo and Ember and Darth Whiskers and Zippy and Vader continue and intersect, until Willy comes to Zippy's aid. Together they manage to destroy the Sith-Laser, and the duo-along with Ceela and Jenny-depart to get to the bus that brought the stormtroopers to the Death Star, but it leaves before they can get on it. Flambo and Jane also leave with a carbonite-encased Darth Whiskers, while the rebels begin their attack on the Death Star.
In the past, Back at Theed, Larry flies up to participate in the fight to destroy the droid control ship, while Quincy and Baxworth are confronted by Darth Max, who crushes Quincy to death with a pile of rubble from the hangar ceiling. As he struggles vainly to free himself from the debris (with only his left arm shown), Quincy begs Baxworth to avenge him as the Padawan and Max battle in the generator complex, where Baxworth slices off Max's head in a comedic fashion. Afterwards, the citizens of Theed celebrate their victory. Obi-Wan, under pressure from Anakin's glaring attitude, promises to begin his training today. Zurgo intends to watch Larry's career with "great interest".
Left stranded on the doomed battle station, What's-It's-Face learned that Zippy faced Vader. Before What's-It's-Face can expound on the subject, the Death Star detonates. Fortunately, Zoomie and Jolly return in the nick of time and saves the group, as well as all of the civilian personnel from the Death Star. Darth What's-It's-Face frees Darth Whiskers and escaped Flambo's ship on a small escape pod, while Flambo and Ember make their way to Yavin to join the celebration attending the Death Star's destruction.
===Episode II: I Have A Bad Feeling About This===
Darth Vader and the Empire arrive at The Walt Disney Studios. They come across Socky and Vader force chokes him. The Narrator appears on screen and continue the story of Zippy's Star Wars adventure.
an Imperial Star Destroyer deploys a series of probe droids in search of the Rebel Alliance. One of the probe droids lands on the ice planet Hoth, where the Rebels have set up a base. Zippy is patrolling when he is attacked by a large wampa and taken back to its lair. At the base, Zoomie announces his intention to leave the Rebellion to Ceela and Jenny, with Ceela objecting to his decision, however she denies it when confronted. When Wet Willy finds out that Zippy has not yet returned, Han sets out on his "Dondon" to find him. Zippy escapes the wampa lair and has a vision of his late mentor Master Baxworth, who tells him to go to the Dagobah system to learn the ways of the Force from Jedi Master Yoda (where Luke Skywalker is training), after offering him a bowl of Zima soup. Willy and Zoomie quickly locate Zippy, and the two are rescued soon after.
Years ago, Baxworth and Larry are greeted by Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker and report to them that Padmé's ship is blown up by Jango Fett, who throws darts at Anakin, but misses. After confessing his need for a jet pack, Anakin and Obi-Wan have a row and it is decided by the Jedi Council that Red, Larry, and Obi-Wan will investigate Kamino while Anakin is stuck on Coruscant with Padmé.
Back in the present soon after, the Empire discovers the Rebel base, and Darth What's-It's-Face orders an attack. The Imperial fleet exits hyperspace too early, giving the Rebels time to evacuate the base while Zippy leads his squadron of snowspeeders to hold off the Empire's battalion of Imperial Walkers. Imperial stormtroopers break into the base, forcing Zoomie to escape in the Machinable Eagle with Willy, Ceela, Jenny, Jolly, Pinky, Ember, and Vic-3PO, while Zippy escapes in his X-wing with Flambo and B2-D2. The Machinable Eagle enters an asteroid field and Zoomie decides to follow the Millennium Falcon on the dock inside a cave to repair the ship. They flee when they discover they have actually landed in the belly of a space slug. Meanwhile, Zippy crash-lands in the swamps of Dagobah and finds Luke and Yoda training amid the foggy landscape. Yoda tells Zippy search for the jedi master squirrel Buddy that lives in a big tree to seek his training. They find Buddy and he and Flambo train Zippy, guiding him through a series of training exercises, including watching "sweet-training DVD releases", and a training montage. In the past, Baxworth and Obi-Wan encounter a cloning facility and Jango Fett and Hector. Obi-Wan fights Jango and Baxworth fights Hector, and they follows the bounty hunters to Geonosis. Back on Coruscant, Anakin explains his situation to Padmé, who tries to calm him down to no avail. After Larry gets a distress message from Baxworth, he, Anakin and R2 hitch a ride aboard Padmé's yacht to rescue him, where they meet 3PO again. When Anakin asks how he got there, the protocol droid meekly replies, "It is a rather long story, I'm afraid."
Darth What's-It's-Face reveals to Darth Vader about his plan and is ordered by Emperor Zurgo to capture Zippy and turn him to the dark side of the Force. What's-It's-Face recruits bounty hunters to track down and capture Zippy's friends, intending to use them as bait to trap Zippy, including Raggedy Andy, whom he orders to leave. With the Machinable Eagle's hyperdrive broken, Zoomie and company escape by hiding amongst a field of disposed trash, but are tracked by Hazel, after hitting a "space bum" collecting some of the garbage. Zippy senses that his friends are in danger and leaves Dagobah to save them, although he has not finished his Jedi training. The frog initially doesn't want him to go, but Flambo encourages it after Zippy suggests the Frog fight What's-It's-Face himself.
Zoomie, Wet Willy and the others go to Cloud City on the planet Bespin to obtain help from Billy Peterson, only to be turned over to Darth What's-It's-Face. Wlly willingly reveals the location of Zippy and the Rebel base but is tortured by being forced to listen to cheesy music as punishment for clogging a toilet on the 16th floor of Cloud City, which forced What's-It's-Face to use the "little pig people's" bathroom. Zoomie is used to test a carbon freezing chamber What's-It's-Face intends to use on Zippy to take him to Zurgo. Pinky tells Zoomie that she and Jolly love him before he gets frozen in carbonite for posterity. Billy later double-crosses the Empire, freeing Wet Willy, Ceela, Jenny, Jolly, Pinky and Vic-3PO, motivating the guards with a pizza party. Hazel flies off with Zoomie. 
Larry, B2, Anakin, Padmé, R2 and 3PO find themselves in the vicinity of a battle droid factory, where they are tossed onto the conveyer belt. A Game Boy–styled sequence ensues, depicting R2 helping the others before they are captured by the droids. They join the Jedi in the execution arena, and the clones, led by Yoda, save them from further harm. Yoda later encounters Count Dooku, only to have the former "show off" with some circus tricks instead of duel. Then Dooku exits the battle and presents the plans for the Death Star to Darth Sidious.
Back in the present, Zippy arrives at Cloud City and, after being briefly interrupted by Gary, engages What's-It's-Face in a lightsaber duel. What's-It's-Face cuts off Zippy's right hand, but Zippy grabs it before it falls off. With Zippy cornered and defenseless, What's-It's-Face goads Zippy to join the dark side, revealing that he was his father's Jedi master. Zippy casts himself into an air shaft and, after discovering that a worker has shoved his severed hand down his pants, ends up hanging on an antenna beneath the city, calling out to Wet Willy, Ceela, and Jenny. Willy senses Zippy's call from within the Machinable Eagle and has him rescued. On board a Nebulon-B frigate, Zippy is fitted with an artificial hand, but told to practice masturbating with a hot dog first. Billy, dressed in Zoomie's clothes, sets off with Jolly on the Machinable Eagle to rescue Zoomie.
===Episode III: The Jedi's Last Stand===
The Walt Disney Studios experience a power outage and the Narrator appears to complete the story. On Tatooine, B2-D2 and Vic-3PO find Jabba the Hutt's palace in order to initiate a plan to save Zoomie, still frozen in carbonite for posterity. Ceela unfreezes Zoomie but Jabba captures her and she is shackled by Princess Leia's side. Zoomie, meanwhile, is thrown into a prison cell with Jolly. Zippy and Wet Willy arrive at the palace and attempts to bargain for the release of his friends. Jabba opens a trap door and Zippy and Willy fall into a pit where Luke and Han are and they battle and kill the Rancor. Afterwards, Jabba orders the rebels to be eaten by the Sarlacc. Zippy initiates an assault on Jabba's crew with the help of Billy. Leia chokes Jabba using her slave chains while Ceela escapes and the others commandeer a transport ship.
In the past, Vic-3PO goes back to Count Dooku and General Grievous' plot to kidnap Supreme Chancellor Palpatine and President Zurgo during the last days of the Clone Wars. C-3PO witnesses Grievous' fake kidnapping of the Chancellor in his office and their escape in a Scimitar ship and Larry goes after them. Meanwhile, Anakin is walking with his secret wife Senator Padmé Amidala, who is pregnant, and R2 who congratulates them with a fanfare. Skywalker goes on to discuss the name of Padmé's unborn child. Padmé settles on Leia for a girl and Kitster, Embo, Wicket, Jubnuk and IG-88 before settling on Luke. At that point, the three witness a kidnapped Palpatine blowing the horn from Grievous' ship.
Baxworth, Larry, Anakin, and Obi-Wan pursue Grievous in their Eta-2 starfighters and avoid several Buzz-droids. On the Separatist flagship Invisible Hand, Count Distel discusses Zurgo's "brilliant plan" to lure the Jedi into a trap while simultaneously revealing the full strength of the Sith Order. Distel thinks that her master Darth Zurgo and Darth Sidious will be able to defeat the Jedi together. However, Zurgo betrays Distel and exhorts Larry to defeat the Separatist leader. During the fighting, Dooku and Grievous are sucked out the window of the Wizard's Tower into space. (Grievous is able to survive in the vacuum of space due to his cybernetics, swearing that they haven't seen the last of him; Dooku, however, presumably perishes, saying, "You have seen the last of me!")
In the present, Zippy, Flambo and B2-D2 fly to Dagobah so Zippy can finish his training with Flambo and Buddy while the others rejoin the rebel fleet. On Dagobah, Buddy explains the final part of training is to face What's-It's-Face. In his dying words, Buddy reveals that Zippy's uncle is still alive. The spirit of Master Baxworth explains that his uncle is Darth Vader and that What's-It's-Face is his father's master. Baxworth tells Zippy the story of their fallout, Larry's turn to the dark side and transformation of Darth What's-It's-Face, the fall of the republic, and how his uncle Anakin turned to the dark side of the force.
Admiral Ackbar explains that to destroy the Death Star they must first disable a shield generator on the forest moon of Endor. Willy uses a stolen Imperial ship and old access code to sneak past the Empire's blockade. What's-It's-Face allows them passage, knowing Zippy is aboard. When they reach the moon's surface, the rebels are spotted by Imperial soldiers which they stop from reporting after a high-speed chase. Separated from the others, Ceela and Jenny are befriended by the Ewoks. Zippy, Willy, Zoomie, Jolly and the droids fall into an Ewok trap while searching for Ceela and Jenny. They are captured and brought to the village where Ceela, Jenny, and Leia is being housed. The Ewoks believe C-3PO is a god and begin to worship him. Zippy finds his family who were rescued by the Ewoks and he tells his dad thay What's-It's-Face is his old Jedi master, but Greg claims to have already known that.
Following Yoda's advice, Zippy surrenders to What's-It's-Face in order to confront him. What's-It's-Face tries to convince Zippy to turn to the dark side. Zippy refuses and the two meet with Emperor Zurgo, who reveals that Luke surrendered himself to Vader and Zippy's friends are walking into a trap on the forest moon. When this revelation fails to anger Zippy, Zurgo begins to mock Luke. Zippy defends Luke saying that he's wrong, only to have Zurgo saying that his dad will turn to the dark side like he did. Zippy becomes enraged and begins dueling with What's-It's-Face.
Back on the forest moon, Han and Zoomie lead the rebels to the shield generator, however, the company is ambushed. Wet Willy, Ceela, Jenny, and the Ewoks help the rebels escape from the Imperial troops and destroy the shield generator, while Lando and Billy lead the attack on the Death Star.
Zippy finally subdues What's-It's-Face, but he refuses to execute him and join the dark side at Zurgo's request. Zurgo then incapacitates Zippy with his powerful Force lightning. Because Zippy asks What's-It's-Face politely for help, What's-It's-Face gathers his remaining strength and kills the distracted Zurgo by throwing him into the reactor core. What's-It's-Face and Zippy manage to flee the Death Star before Billy and his crew blow it up. Zippy takes off What's-It's-Face's helmet and the redeemed Larry Zippington dies laughing. Everyone rendezvous back at the Ewok village to celebrate the rebels victory over the Empire. The spirits of Master Baxworth and Buddy appear to Zippy, alongside the spirit of Larry Zippington.
The Walt Disney Studios power returns just as the Narrator concludes the story, Socky then asks Peter "What about the sequel trilogy?" with the Narrator suggesting that they might do the sequels in the future.

== Reception ==
According to Nielsen ratings, Zippy's Adventures of Star Wars received 4.012 million viewers for "Episode I: The Fourth Awakens", about 3.6 million viewers for "Episode II: I Have A Bad Feeling About This", and 4.071 million viewers for its last night, "Episode III: The Jedi's Last Stand". "The Jedi's Last Stand" and "The Fourth Awakens" ranked twelfth and thirteenth overall, respectively, on the list of top twenty television shows on the cable network for the week ending October 6, 2024. Zippy became the highest-rated cable network series that Friday for "The Fourth Awakens". However, "Vader's Gonna Vade" was topped by the teen sitcom and drama series Austin & Ally, which premiered simultaneously on the Disney Channel. "The Jedi's Last Stand" ranked in third place for Sunday night. The trilogy's ratings were highest for Zippy. Composer John Williams won an Annie Award for his music in "The Fourth Awakens" in the "Individual Achievement Category" of "Music in a Television Production" on February 6, 2030.
Zippy's Adventures of Star Wars received positive reception from critics. Eileen Cruz of Toon Zone mainly praised it. Specifically, she observes that it "manages to remain largely fresh the entire time for an animated comedy episode over two hours long". Aaron Bynum of The Animation Insider, however, gave a more negative review. He suggested it was only "moderately entertaining", saying it is "just another over-exerted animated epic of an over-extended property." Cruz commented positively on the show's usage of a mix of standard and computer animation; however, she noted the blend between special 3D objects and their surroundings was "not perfect", though "not distracting either". Bynum stated the animated trilogy's usage of computer animation was "rather needless", and its cultural parodies were "tired and forgettable". While he finds "The Jedi's Last Stand" interesting enough to keep the viewer engaged, he also criticized the series as a whole. He said, "it would appear that the cartoon is no longer an exclusive journey into one child's ever-changing imagination; now, it's just a fanciful what-if". Cruz praised the role of the original Star Wars actors. She cannot think of too many other characters that "could exist in such a universe with such an exaggerated reality".
