Anybody else with a DVR have to manually include tonight's episode to be recorded? My TiVo still says the one at the normal time tonight is "Episode 24", when it should be "Episode 25". It thought it was a repeat and it wasn't picking it up.

Loved how the Jedi took care of Grievious.

Yes, see my post on the first page...

At any rate, I thought Mace Windu was awesome. Like Jules in Pulp Fiction, Mace is a Bad MF'er. He got a piece of Grievious.

Is there any commercial breaks during tonight's broadcast? Just wondering if I'll have time to grab some snacks during, or if I should get it all ready ahead of time...

Chapters 21-25 were definitely better than the first 20 chapters. I can't wait for Episode III

I had the VCR all set to record the complete Clone Wars Volume II today at my dad's place. (My ReplayTV is at my apartment where I currently have no cable or satellite). I left a note on the VCR saying not to touch it, but of course someone did. When I came back from work, my neice and nephew were watching Goonies on DVD (it's a DVD-VCR combo) and since the VCR was turned off to make the timer work, I knew something was up. There was no tape in the VCR and when I found the tape and checked it, of course it was blank. My idiot brother in law didn't see my note and messed with it of course. If anyone was kind enough to record it and wouldn't mind sending me a VHS or DVD-r, I would be extremely happy. I don't want any online version, I want to watch these on TV. Thanks a lot!

Do you have an IVS-capable ReplayTV (i.e. a RTV 4xxx/50xx w/ broadband)? If so, you can request it from www.poopli.com .

Unfortunatly no, it's a Showstopper 1000. (Though it's cool, because there are no fees)

The entire run of The Clone Wars was just spectacular. It reminded me of why I've loved Star Wars all these years. In my opinion, it worked on pretty much every level. The emotional parts were truly emotional, the action was great (all I have to say is that nobody in the universe - Sideous and Grievous included - wants to "take it outside" with Mace Windu). A little corny 3PO humor thrown in for good measure. Lucas did well to hire Tartakovsky and crew, who in turn gave him a wonderful series that perfectly sets up Episode 3. Just a little fanboy gushing...

Ah, nuts. I missed the last two episodes and was hoping to catch this little marathon to get caught up, but I totally forgot that it was on. Shit.


What are the odds of Cartoon Network showing all the chapters in a row again? Is there still another season coming up before Episode III is released, or was this it?

I know that I can still get them online, but I'd rather watch them on my TV.

I watched it last night in one long run.

GREAT!

That Hammerhead Jedi's 4-throat Force-Yell was pretty cool... to bad Grievous got the best of him.

One thing bugged me though, and it was an inconsistency in the animation. When Ani walks into the "Mother's Mouth" he's missing his scar and blue lightening paint, but when he emerges from the fog, he has it again... I don't see how they can miss things like that.

Can't wait to get all 25 chapters on DVD.

That has got to be the shortest regular season ever. 5 episodes???? I am very impressed with Volume 2. I might even pick up the Volume 1 DVD...

the difference is that the chapters were 15 minutes each making it about 75 minutes in length.

The first 2 seasons only had 3 minute chapters so it was about 30 minutes per season.

Less hyperbole this time, which is good. Last season was so damn stupid because everything was so over the top... and it's hard to get more over the top than a Star Wars movie.

For those who missed it and don't mind squinting, chapters 21-24 are now available on the Star Wars web site, although in a very small size. It doesn't say if or when chapter 25 will be posted.

I finally watched these last night and thought they were damn good. Episodes 24 & 25 really got me jazzed up for ROTS.

I caught the last few minutes of 25, and thought I could catch the rest on the tape I set at home (I was at a different place and happened upon it). SON OF A BITCH!!! The tape ran out before chapter 24 aired!!! Anyone know when the Toon Network might air these again, or where I might be able to get them online?

PLEASE HELP!!!

I loved the clone wars series. All 25 episodes, err both volumes. IT was a great build up for episode 3. I'm planning to watch them all 1 more time in May before I go see episode 3, so 21-25 will have to sit on the Tivo till then
