    You need to watch Clone Wars before Rebels and Bad Batch, but it's unlikely you need to watch Rebels before Bad Batch

    yes, but there are clearly going to be references to rebels in bad batch. Stick with the show order imo.

    Anyone have the order to watch CW handy? I might as well start over. I don't remember where I left off.

    You'll have to excuse me, I'm a little slow but what does the "T" mean in between episodes 2 and 3?

    It says The Clone Wars theatrical release? Does that mean they want you to watch the movie?

    Yes, but you should turn it off after the first 25-30 minutes.

    If you've already seen the show but didn't finish it, you don't need to see the movie. If you haven't seen any CW, you should watch the movie because it introduces Ahsoka.

    Finally got around to watching Bad Batch. Just watched the first (long) episode. Really good. Enjoyed it.

    That is all.

    I sometimes forget these are supposed to be kids shows, given the ratings.

    Hoping Omega's role isn't just to constantly get into trouble where they have to bail her out. That kind of defeats the purpose of doing a show on this particular group of people to me.

    Once you hit the 5th episode there's a long run where you don't have to jump around for awhile. It ain't bad.

    Just finished Rebels. Was better than I thought it was going to be. Really like BB so far. My 6 year old son watched the first episode with me and while most went over he loved it.

    I just noticed in this third episode in the chronological order they mention failing this group of cadets and sending them down to the rejects in squad 99. Neat.

    Rewatch but I never finished the first time around. I was pretty close to the end I think. I know I didn't watch any of the final season.

    I just don't remember much of this so I guess it's like a first watch so far. It was years ago. I've slept since then.

    ok, you are certainly past the attack on camino. I believe you heard wrong with the quotes. The cadets were compared to rejects like 99, the crippled clone that everyone looked down on. While never explicitly said, it seems obvious that the Bad Batch named their squad in his honor after he sacrificed himself to save the kids

    Ya it was something like that. I know in the episode someone says they are the bad batch/we are a bad batch etc. Something like that.

    it’s a kids show. I think Ezra and the show mature along the same lines as it goes.

    Yeah, Ezra is intended to be the stand in for the kids watching. to be fair the kids watching are also probably awful in ever respect as well

    Ezra is a lot like Sadness from Inside Out which I just rewatched. The whole time you’re thinking “fuck this idiot, someone kill them, they’re fucking everything up” but then you realize they have their purpose.

    I hated Chopper at first. It grew on me as time went on, and now when I rewatch some first season stuff I get amused by it more.

    I don't think I liked Ezra until season 4.

    The Droid in bad batch gets little screen time, but when it does it gets treated like shit. Think it's intentional

    Bad Batch is turning out to be pretty good

    Fennec is bad ass. Assuming she is working for Fett at this point? Omega would be similar to him, correct? A clone, but not built as a clone trooper?

    Boba Fett is only 13-14ish right now. Doubtful she's working for him. Also, makes her older than Boba which I never go the impression of during the Mandolorian.

    Anyway - She has to be working for the Kaminoans, right? They're really the only ones aware of her existence, aren't they? I suppose members of the republic/ empire who where monitoring the clone army development know about her, but it seemed like no one paid her any attention.

    But then again - The Kaminoans were more than happy to let her escape w the Bad Batch, so idk why they'd want her found.


    Youre welcome for these random and contractidory thoughts.

    agreed on them letting her go with bad batch. But wasn't boba kind of running his own gang already? It will probably end up being someone else, and the rumors are the last episode is really sad, so idk

    I like how they threw the news about the Mandalorian spinoff, Rangers of the New Republic, no longer being in development in that article. Pretty much confirms it was going to a Cara Dune centric show. Dumbass lost two Star Wars shows because she couldn't stop tweeting stupid shit.
