Another day another screenshot re-draw but also a crossover! Initially I wanted to make this a crossover with The Bad Batch, however couldn’t find the right combination. Then one day the puzzle pieces fell to the right places as I talked with @kalm5 about Star Wars stuff and we came to conclusion that R2 is, basically a droid equivalent of the best-est of boys AKA a dog.
So if R2 is a dog then Anakin is like... his owner? or rather handler if we take into account TCW’s war setting... Thus the idea was born to crossover The Clone Wars cartoon with another vintage, black & white Polish TV series:
Przygody Psa Cywila (“The adventures of Civvie the dog”?) is a 7 episodes long mini series (30 minutes per episode) targeted at teens. It’s about militia sergeant Walczak, who after loosing his previous working dog, rescued and trained a puppy, he later named Civvie - which is a glorious pun, because it creates a juxtaposition of a “civilian" working in obviously militarized setting - Militia forces (At the time the TV series was made - 1971 - Poland was under a communist regime and didn’t have Police forces per se but a Militia forces that acted as a Police).
Each episode is a self-contained story - first two are dedicated to Civvie’s origin as a working dog, the rest is the “typical” adventures of the duo - rescuing missing kids, dealing with smugglers, chasing run-away prisoners, etc.
Unfortunately the series is not nearly as popular as Four tank-men and a dog, so you might find all episodes on-line, but not with English subtitles (at least I didn’t find such a version).
That a shame, you should feel robbed, because it’s one of my favorite mini-series!
Sergeant Walczak is a street-smart, polite and very experienced dog handler - considered one of the best by his colleagues at work. He has a very unique way of handling dogs - basically treating them almost like human beings. He talk to dogs as if they had had a deeper understanding of what’s going on... and Civvie seems to be above average when it comes to his intelligence: during downpour at the training facility all the dogs were ordered to sit... and sat in the rain totally miserable except Civvie who decided to be both law-abiding and dry - as the dog decided to sit under a small table, when ordered to fetch a stick across the body of water, Civvie didn’t swim for it like the rest of dogs but used a nearby bridge to cross and so on and on.
One they completed the training course at the dog training facility Walczak and Civvie became very tight-knitted - when in one episode Civvie goes missing, Walczak uses everything in his power to find his missing buddy. He basically ends-up in handcuffs and thrown to the jail due to his search for his beloved dog.
If that’s not Anakin’s and R2′s relationship (but translated to officer-working dog relationship) in a nutshell I don’t know what it.
There are also other characters that could have, in some way of the other, SW equivalents, like:
One character in the show just whispers Mace Windu to me. Lieutenant Zubek (who appears in first 2 episodes) is stickler for rules. He is pretty high-up at the dog training facility. Zubek is not really at knives with the sergeant as a person - but rather takes umbrage with Walczak’s rule-bending methods and tries to expose his lack of care to their higher-up (think Candace from Phineas and Ferb but militia setting in ‘70. Poland under communist regime) we only know as “Colonel”.
Colonel is a laid-back head of the dog training facility. He takes everything in stride and is not really bothered by, what in Zubek’s mind are Walczak’s misdemeanors. He understands Walczak’s good-natured way of handling dogs and tries to keep in check Zubek’s law-abiding, narrow mindset. So yeah, he is basically Yoda-esque character, but more... down-to-earth and humorous?
There is, of course, a lot more to The Adventures of Civvie the dog but for now I guess it’s enough of my explanations! It’s already way too long as it is!
