Lucas originally had initial ideas and plans for a sequel series in the 80s after ROTJ, around the same time he started working on ideas for the prequels. I believe Lucas had discussed some of those ideas for the sequel series with Mark Hamill back in the day. Iger said none of Lucas' ideas survived the process.
Lucas may write shitty dialog, and he's definitely guilty of writing to market toys to kids, but the overall story arcs he comes up with are pretty solid.
