Warning! Tomorrow's episode features the return of Jar Jar Binks.

Teamed up with C3PO no less!

Looks like this series is about to hit a brick wall.

This wasn't my favorite episode, but I didn't hate it either. I think that Jar Jar used to annoy me so much because the movies only had 2 hours to tell their story. I couldn't understand why Lucas was wasting time on him. In the TV show, they have all the time in the world to develop the characters. So a couple of goofy episodes per season are actually welcome. Also, Jar Jar works much better as a character on a kid's show than in the Star Wars movies.

It looks like we are about 2 weeks behind you guys here in the UK. I like storing a few episodes up and watching 3 at a time.

One thing I thought was funny was a few episodes ago were the 2 driods walking down the hall. One hears the Twilight attaching itself to the emergancy airlock and making the noise and one droid saying "did you hear that?", and then all the dialogue that followed!

Just thought it was quite funny!

I had to fast forward through most of this episode. I can tolerate, albeit barely, Jar Jar in TPM but when he's the focal point I can't do it.

I would say each and every prequel Star Wars movie would be at least a 1/2 of star better if they used a different voice for the annoying droid army troopers and Jar Jar Binks.

It was better than I expected. Fortunately, it was a one episode story arc.

Unfortunately, we're in for three weeks of repeats while they rerun the Malevolence storyline. I imagine it'll be getting a DVD release as well.

After that horrible Jar Jar episode the show is back on track.

Yup, this week's was quite good.

I'm glad this show is using a lot of the lesser characters, it makes it much more interesting than spending every episode with Anakin and Obi Wan.

Yeah that is the best thing about the show. You'll get episodes feature people you never see in the movies or you see them very little.

Starting December 22, all 10 episodes of the hit Cartoon Network series that have aired to date will be available online at the official Star Wars website and at CartoonNetwork.com. What's more, each episode features a video commentary by supervising director Dave Filoni; a web comic; and a detailed episode guide containing concept art and additional insights into Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

The online marathon ends on Monday, Jan. 5.

And on Friday, January 2nd, the first new Clone Wars episode of 2009, "Dooku Captured," debuts at 9 p.m. on Cartoon Network.

Bump for tomorrow.

This show has turned out better than the movie. Anyone want to comment on how it looks in HD? My provider does not have this channel in HD yet.

Is it wrong to say the cartoon Padme was kind of, er, hot in this episode?

I just finished watching all 10 episodes back to back. I can't believe I almost skipped out on this show because I hated the movie with the baby Hutt. The show is so much better than the movie (except for that crappy Jar Jar episode... hope there aren't too many Jar Jar episodes in the future).

Rookies was my favorite episode. I can't believe they actually had a clone trooper sacrifice himself on a kid's cartoon... that was pretty intense.

I also second the poster who mentioned the narrator at the beginning sounding too much like Starship Troopers. Why in the world did they do that instead of using the traditional opening crawl message? The crawl would have been so much better.

Has there been any new word on the live-action tv series? I thought it was supposed to come out sometime in 2009, but there has been so little info on it...

New episode tonight.

Still loving this show. Looks like them are going for a theme this season of worlds getting dragged into the war by no fault of their own. We seen episodes where the Jedi weren't the focus now we have one where neither the jedi nor the clones are the focus. Though I did like Rex two gunning like a left 4 dead player trying to get his aikido assassin achievement Great show.

when did this start to air on tnt-hd, it's on right now.

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

It actually started airing this weekend

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

due to conflicts, I'm now unable to dvr the 1st airing of this show, which is always in glorious anamorphic widescreen... I find that subsequent airings, the image is letterboxed, and squished vertically a bit... anyone else find this? what gives?

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

Grrr, I keep forgetting this is on and missing it! So guess I'll just hang on til the Season One box comes out.

So far it sounds like the series has done a good job salvaging the Prequel universe.

They still keep Jar Jar annoying though.

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

Humm, I watch it on Friday nights on Cartoon Network HD and it is not anamorphic widescreen or letterbox. Wish it were though since I have a 136" 2.35:1 screen. Are you saying the image is already stretched vertically? If so that would be perfect for my setup.

I hear over in England on SKY network it is shown letterboxed 2.35:1 ratio.

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

The original episode that airs Fridays at 9PM on CNHD is widescreen, filling up my =entire= HDTV, without black bars, with an image that is quite stunning. Subsequent airings, while also widescreen, are squished vertically, with black bars on the top and bottom, so everything looks squat, and the PQ seems to be a bit downgraded as well. I have DirecTV.

What gives?

Damn, I didn't realize that new episodes of this were airing again. I thought the season was over after the initial 10 or so episodes finished in November/December ... how many new episodes of these have there been since haitus?

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

Friday's was episode 19 out of 22 for the season. It's been new every Friday except one since the new year.

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

^ Crap, it airs in Canada on CTV Sunday nights at 7pm. New episodes stopped some time in early December I think, and it looped back to the first episode. At some point, they weren't airing Clone Wars in that timeslot any longer, and they yesterday they aired Part 1 of a two-part episode where Anakin and Asoka go to aid Ayla Secura ... anyone know which episode out of 22 that was?

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

Anyone catch the season finale of Clone Wars? I thought it was one of the better episodes. Cad Bane was perfectly realized and is now my favorite CW character. And Aura Sing was pretty badass too.

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

Great wrap up. They brought back Zero the Hutt, who didn't seem totally happy about his own financed rescue.

Was this the first ep that spent any time on the fact that Annie and Padme are married? They sure opened the show with it.

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

I think this was the first time they went into it so much. Does anyone know how long we have to wait for season 2?

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

Promo said this Fall

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

I thought the finale was sensational. I haven't seen the Clone Wars movie yet, so this was my introduction to Ziro the Hutt. Yikes!


On the other hand, the overall plot was my cup of tea. I love "24" and this episode had the same feel. I also loved the music score that had a Hans Zimmer (Dark Knight) style to it.

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

this show has been fantastic, it feels like the original star wars. I cant wait till it comes out on Bluray, I missed a few episodes but i really loved the different worlds and characters we seen, worlds seemed more real in this series then episodes 2-3

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

I just watched the final episode.

I went into this series with incredibly low expectations, seeing how bad the movie was. I also didn't think it could live up to the last Clone Wars animated series. But... it was a great series, and a great finale, and I'm looking forward to it returning in the fall.

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

I am toying with the idea of getting the first season on blu-ray once it is available. I have REALLY enjoyed it, despite the fact I watched the movie twice (once on purpose, once on a bus full of 5th graders on a field trip...)

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

My DVR reads every episode as new and recorded the finale three times this weekend. Better than missing one, but still annoying.

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

The hell you must have went through. Do not hesitate to seek help or a support if you need it. Very few people made it through once without major mental problems. Everywhere they go they see baby huts following them. Please get help if you need it.

re: Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- CGI animated series -- Discussion Thread
 

Last episode was great, not 1 battledroid. I'll give the season a B+.
