The Ewoks' spirit trees, the new characterizations of Wicket and his friends, the witch that always fought master Logray, and the Duloks made the first 13 episodes better than the two live-action Ewok movies at the time.
The movie is very interesting becuase it shows those furry ewoks George Lucas created not as primitive life forms to be looked at like animals but as small creatures very much like us in the way they feel, think, and live.
First, some background: The Ewoks are the ridiculously cuddly 'teddy bears with spears' seen in the third 'Star Wars' movie, 'Return of the Jedi'.

 Jedi Council Forums - when are the droids & ewoks cartoons set???
I recall that in early drafts ond concepts of the trilogy, George Lucas had in mind that the entire saga was as seen though the eyes of the droids who have existed for hundreds of years.
I believe that the Droids cartoon made use of this theme back in the day, though obviously not too far back in history thanks to the appearance of bounty hunter Boba Fett in one episode.
As for the EWOK cartoon, I see no reason why it couldn't take place around the time just prior to the Empire's invasion of Endor to build the second Death Star as seen in RETURN OF THE JEDI.
