"At Celebration Orlando Dave Filoni said that it will be the final season of Rebels and will have 16 episodes. He said that it was his decision to end here and that he is glad to give a proper ending to the series, unlike in Clone Wars. According to Filoni, it will be darker and a bit funnier than the previous one."
Well 16 episodes in the last season means most of the filler should be cut out... but I just hope we don't have multiple 3-4 week breaks... probably will. Bet we will have 7-8.episodes in the Fall and than Winter Break, probably 4-5 more and another break before the final stretch.
The first double parter for the premiere is called "Heroes of Mandalore"

Hope you realize if they do another animated series, (which DF only works on animated content ) than it will also be on Disney XD... So say what you want about Rebels but the next series will likely be quite similar in design

But I am glad Dave does get do a proper conclusion on this one. If he knew TCW would only go as long as it did it would've gone a lot better.
Like most of Season 5 felt like he was killing time because he could go on as long as he wanted.

Yeah every single episode is filler... It did not feel like that for TCW because of clear story arcs
For a serialized show, Rebels is very episodic....

Not really it's apart of the Star Wars storyline now like TCW. I mean they even have Clone Wars and Rebels characters showing up in Rouge One. They're expanding Saws story a lot in Rebels, which leads into the movies and the foundation of the Rebellion is all in Rebels, plus the conclusion for a lot of Clone Wars characters that Dave didn't get to finish, I wouldn't really say it's just filler. There's a lot of good storylines in it that relate to the movies

There's a lot of good storylines in it that relate to the movies They expanded Saw in like two episodes and then forgot about him. He's done with. No emotional effect on the series as a whole. If you removed those two episodes the show wouldn't feel different. They add characters and stories with no emotional weight to them. They just add TCW characters to attract TCW fans, OT characters to attract OT fans, and Saw just cause Rogue came out at the same time. Ahsoka was the only character who at at least added something to the show. Even if it was just to add closure for her and not really anything for the show.

I say Disney does a live action series and really give the fans what they want here. Yes, it's more money but the result will be bigger ratings and profit for sure.This is just wishful thinking though. Can't wait to see what's in store after Rebels!

That would be great but very expensive. But idk I never understood how if Star Trek could do it so many times, why Star Wars couldn't

I rewatched through imperial eyes today
"Override code Rukh" can't believe I missed that the first time, naming the code after Rukh who is set to appear this season

Hmm I rewatched the trailer and Hera's voice throughout the entire thing is very sad. She also talks in past tense. I think most of them will die. We know Hera lives, Chopper too but he's a Droid. But after that I don't really know if anyone else will survive.
Ezra and Kanan pretty much have to die I think... Sabine may die fighting for her people, more like a sacrifice but it would pretty much be her redemption. Zeb is the one that may live but I could see Thrawn or Rukh killing him. Kallus could survive I guess.
And it's not like they're killing kids at this point since Ezra and Sabine in season 4 will be like 19 years old

I'm happy the show is getting a proper ending, I had always predicted 4 seasons would be the length of this show from the time it started.
However I'm not convinced 16 episodes is enough to tie up all loose ends, however they may have double length episodes that they're counting as 1 as well, the show has been inconsistent with that

I think Kanan is the only for sure death. Zeb and Ezra I could see either way... and I think Sabine will just remain on Mandalore. What do you think about Thrawn? I still think he's going to bite it, but I'd rather him not.

Don't see how people say the show keeps getting better to me season 1 was the only good one and from there it got worse.... The Lothal setting was good and the episodes had a good sense of Star Wars adventure. Later on it was just whatever... but idk I may have to do a rewatch of everything sometime I don't remember it all... They should really put the show on Netflix
But the people saying it's better than TCW... I just don't understand how people can think that... TCW had: - Greatest animation of a tv show ever - diverse settings - diverse plots - excellent writing - characters that were fun to watch - actually good dry humor - depth - emotional moments - smart stuff
Rebels has: - cringe - half assed plots - no expansion of universe - dull characters - bad writing - wastes episode time with Potato Rules - cringe - dumb stuff
Sure GL dumped an unreasonable amount of money into TCW but that's the point sergeant. I don't think Rebels will make a big mark in Star Wars... It's just stuff... Stuff that needed to come out soon after Disney acquired the rights and could have gotten better over time but didn't even though Disney could put in a little more money into it considering it's their only Star Wars series. It's Battlefront if it was a tv show
I HATE IT

I still think he's going to bite it, but I'd rather him not. Killing Thrawn would be a pretty major victory I think and that isn't supposed to happen before Rouge One But Bendus last lines to Thrawn elude to him not dying in Rebels, you should check out the video I posted in the episode 8 thread. Its suggested Thrawn might have founded the first order

I didn't like Season 1 because so much of it was on Lothal. To me it was boring and a lot of the episodes had the same plot. At least with Seasons 2 and 3 they were able to go to some different locations.

I liked the city and the Imperial facilities. Later seasons are always just in space or on a ship or some lame terrain setting... I'd prefer them to just go back to Lothal

Also lets remember Bendu uses the word "defeat" not death, he may be defeated in Rebels season 4 but I'd still say it's unlikely given the current timeline and how close we are to Rouge One

It's said that Thrawns knowledge of the unknown regions greatly influenced the first order. It's a lot of speculation and what not but Palpatines interest in Thrawn is quite likely his knowledge of the unknown regions for his contingency plans. Palpatine sent the Super Star Destroyer Eclispe into the unknown regions sometime before the battle of Endor, its possible Thrawn was in command of this ship given his knowledge and the fact that he was the Empires best admiral. They been keeping to Thrawns old canon quite a lot in the Disney canon, his first contact with the Republic, his exile from the Chiss Ascendency, his relationship with the Noghri, etc I think Tater suggested that Rukh may betray Thrawn like he did in the old EU but the timing of Rebels is poor for this, the Empire is at its height and the Noghri are allies with them. Vader especially has a strong relation with them as does Thrawn

These are probably my 3 favorite soundtracks, I'm pretty sure there's some others I liked too but I have only ever rewatched certain episodes so I can't entirely remember
