Not sure if there is any proof, but people are claiming each episode will be 45 minutes...

I mean I guess with 45 minute episodes they would already have 4 pretty much complete just from the story reels. The Bounty Hunter story reel was largely complete as well, actually I think it was confirmed as completed so that would just require animation I guess? In this case they would only have to make six 45 minute episodes from scratch really.... Utapau (2 Episodes) Bad Batch (2 Episodes) Bounty Hunters (2 Episodes)

Son of Dathomir and Dark Disciple (the first arc at least) were both in the same development stages.

Honestly i think Son of a Dathomir and Dark Disciple would be the Episodes I'd least want to see other then the really super filler ones like R2/ Rex arc...
But I feel like the comic and book did Son of Dathomir and Dark Disciple a lot of Justice. They were told from good mediums. I don't feel like a stiff poorly animated story reel does Utapau or Bad Batch much justice.

But I don’t believe they would do that Well I have read several people claim this is the case. They all say it is because 45 minute episodes work better for streaming. I am not sure if that is a fact or just something all these people think though. But I am sure they would just merge the 4 episode arcs into 2 episode ones though.

starwars.wikia.com/wiki/The_Clone_Wars_LegacyI just don't reasonably see why Son of Dathomir would have had much work done story reel wise... it likely was a late season 7 release. Bounty Hunter arc, Utapau arc likely would have closed out season 6. Bad Batch was confirmed to start off season 7 and Dark Disciple was likely early- mid season 7. Idk why they would work on a late season 7 arc so early.

On top of all of that they were working on The Lost Missions episodes as well before the cancelation

"A four-episode arc written by Matt Michnovetz[25] with production codes 6.17–6.20 starred Yoda and the Bad Batch on Kashyyyk.[26] "
Huh this makes me kinda think a Kashyyyk arc in the new episodes could be more likely if the Bad Batch is present in that...
Also the Mon Cala/ Padme arc would be about removing Palpatine from office, so that sounds kinda cooler now

At the time of season 5's conclusion I think the development of episodes both completed and in progress would have been something like:
Season 6: Fives Arc: 1-4 Clovis Arc 5-8 (we know this was orginallt meant for season 5) The Dissapeared: 9-10 Utapau Arc: 11-14 Bounty Hunter Arc: 15-18 Yoda Arc: 19-22
This would have been a complete season, I actually feel orginally Utapau and Bounty Hunters might have had more work put into them at the time of cancelation but upon news that they would only have a limited amount of time to finish The Lost Missions I feel like all work ended up going to completing the Yoda arc since it's a more fitting makeshift conclusion for the show then Utapau or Bounty Hunters. They actually ran out of budget just trying to get the Yoda arc out which is evident from Dooku's weird model in Sacrifice and his lack of robes entirely. But yeah I think the planned ending for season 6 was Yoda's arc.
Season 7: Bad Batch: 1-4 Dark Disciple: 5-8 Ahsoka Arc: 9-12 (Wasn't there story reels for this?)
At this point I don't think much work went into anything else. We know nothing but a bit of writing went into season 8 at the time of cancellation and the end of season 7 probably didn't make it out of writing/ concept art phase since we didn't see any other story reels.

I think Maul would have been end of season 7 since they did kind of flood us with Maul episodes in a very short time from end of season 4- mid season 5. Makes sense to take a reprieve from him

Oh that’s right there were story reels for something with Ventress and Ashoka. I don’t remember if those were part of the same thing or like Dark Disciples and Siege of Mandalore.
Writing for S7 was all done and they had all these story reels... I’m not sure why we’re not getting bounty hunters and disciples unless they just don’t want to pay for that

Also the Mon Cala/ Padme arc would be about removing Palpatine from office, so that sounds kinda cooler now A story revolving around removing Palpatine sounds pretty interesting to me. Even though the politics were fairly simple in TCW episodes, they still provided more depth and explanation into that aspect of the prequel era. Plus they could give more glimpses of Coruscant, the Senate, the Jedi Temple, or the Underworld, which is also cool.

Can't really expect anymore after this because Mandalore is supposed to be the ending. Hopefully it ends up being 12 episodes confirmed so far and there are more before Mandalore.
Also it seems they are making books about Padmé and Qui-Gon. I'm glad to be getting more prequel content let it continue

But yeah I don't think we would get any more TCW after Siege of Mandalore. That would be kinda weird

I ageee with what Potato said the other day though. Rebels was always going to happen after TCW. Especially when you consider the original concept for TCW was basically what Rebels was. The original TCW would have been about a new Jedi Master, new Jedi Padawan, a Smuggler, a Droid and I think there was another character. The main prequel characters were meant to be cameos at first. I guess they moved away from that idea after the backlash of the prequels and a show based around that probably wouldn't have redeemed the prequels whereas the OT didn't need redeeming. It's also easier to make an original new story with new characters in the 20 years between ROTS and ANH then the 3 years between AOTC and ROTS I guess.

Maybe this was the plan but I don’t think it would have transpired. Presumably they wouldn’t have wanted to keep the same audience and wouldn’t be marketing to little kids so the animation would need to be better, and therefore be just expensive as TCW. After spending so much money on TCW, I don’t think George would shell out cash for another show.

Honestly, shows should finish what they start, not spend the last few episodes try to set up another show. (This isn’t Andy Griffith)

I'm not sure if Lucas would have personally been involved in the next show though, a TV station may have picked up TCW's successor. Sure it wouldn't have been the same animation but I think another show was bound to happen.

Yeah that was Dave's original idea and George said nah. We always say George had bad ideas and Dave had good ones but sometimes it was the other way around

(This isn’t Andy Griffith) Let's be honest characters like Ahsoka and Rex were probably never gonna die in TCW... the main heroes just don't die like that in Star Wars while in their prime. Han wasn't killed in ROTJ for example. Only the old mentor figures tend to die.

Didn't Dave work heavily on The Last Airbender or something? He was probably formulating a similar plot for Star Wars or something

I mean even in the Disney era the only main hero type that has died young was Kanan...
Other then Rouge One but that's kind of an exception, there had to be a grand sacrifice there.

The moved away from it because that was Filoni's idea and Lucas didn't like it. I always expected them to do a series set after ROTS, but I think it would have been a very different series from the one we got if Disney had not bought Star Wars. Lucas is the reason TCW did not end up being as bad as Rebels. If he was involved in a post-ROTS series it probably would have been good.

Rebels is on Filoni. Everything that happened on TCW had to be approved by Lucas. I like Filoni, he truly seems to care about making good Star Wars stories. But I don't think he is that good with ideas.
