Re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- Season 4

Cool... I thought the second half of last season was great.

I forgot they start the next season before releasing the previous one on DVD... Wasn't looking for S4 til next month...

Good eps. Glad this is back. Happy to see Captain Ackbar. He did get to shout "it's an attack!"

Re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- Season 4

this season has sucked. more generic robots vs generic clones, Jar Jar, and cutsey alien races cut from the Ewok mold. I really couldn't care less about anything going on in the prequel universe.

Re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- Season 4

They definitely have schizophrenic episodes, some strictly appealing to young kids and then a few intended for older adults with a focus on the more mature elements from the actual movies. This season so far has been strictly aimed at the 10-and-under crowd.

Re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- Season 4

The Jedi Krell story arc was pretty damned good. Redeemed what has to this point been a lackluster season.

Still watching the Krell episodes.

The Droids 2 parter was great! But you have to have loved the 80's Droids cartoon first I think.

Re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- Season 4

Guys, you need to be watching this. New episode Friday night, with the return of Nightwatch. And we still have the return of Darth Maul coming up

I'm happy with how the season has been airing this season. Not many breaks, and it looks like the season should finish up in march.

My son loves this show. He'll be happy to hear that season four is on the air.

Part one of the four part finale begins in a little over an hour. Be sure to tune in.

Re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- Season 4

Don't miss Maul's return, tonight! I really hope that we see some flashback footage from The Phantom Menace, in animated form. If they just explain how Maul lives and don't show it, it won't be as interesting.

Re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- Season 4

I'm glad I stuck with this show past the first season. I can easily rank it above any of the prequel movies. I also find it a bit funny how the cartoon series isn't shy about showing the high death-count action up close while the first two prequels were much more kid friendly.

The writing is still wildly hit-or-miss on the show, even four seasons in. It's like the producers have a limit of eight great episodes a season and the rest is filler. I have to fast-forward through the episodes with unappealing subjects.

So is Maul and his race or whatever they are, like a cockroach, the live even when they are cut in half.

This season had that 4-part clone siege with the evil Jedi, the Ventress being hunted/bounty-hunter episodes & the Obi-in-disguise 4-parter; I enjoyed all of the episodes quite a bit.

I didn't care for the Jar-Jar or slave-world episodes much, but even those I was at least entertained by. I still put more in the good-to-average then the average-to-poor categories.

Bullshit for moving this show to Saturday mornings after being on Friday nights for four years.

That doesn't sound like a good move at all.

Re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- Season 4

anyone know if they have a plan for the end? Do we know how many more seasons the show is going to run?
Some of those clips made me wonder if we are nearing the end of the show.
