You guys might remember that a few months ago we did a little questionnaire on the Games board and I said we would likely do more in the future. theambushgames.boards.net/thread/1021/favorite-gamesOriginally I was going to do TV Shows or Movies first and then likely a Star Wars/ Clone Wars specific one but with recent events it seems best to move TCW up. Since we are all familiar with TCW, this one may be a bit longer. Anyways like last time this is entirely opinionated and results will not be recorded to use in a collective poll or anything like that. Feel free to copy and paste the template I provide but you can add whatever elements you want to it. As this is entirely opinionated all the questions will be designed around personal favorite rather then what may necessarily be the absolute best. You can have more then one answer per question but since we are kinda doing this to generate thought on the subject you should try and narrow it down. Episodes:Favorite Episode (Season 1): Favorite Arc (Season 1): Favorite Episode (Season 2): Favorite Arc (Season 2): Favorite Episode (Season 3): Favorite Arc (Season 3): Favorite Episode (Season 4): Favorite Arc (Season 4): Favorite Episode (Season 5): Favorite Arc (Season 5): Favorite Episode (Season 6): Favorite Arc (Season 6): Favorite Season Premiere: Favorite Season Finale: Favorite Standalone Episode (Entire Show): Favorite 2 Part Arc (Entire Show): Favorite 3 Part Arc (Entire Show): Favorite 4 Part Arc (Entire Show): ---- Characters:Favorite Jedi: Favorite Clone: Favorite Bounty Hunter/ Underworld Character: Favorite Droid: Favorite Separatist: Favorite Other Hero (Not Jedi or Clones): Favorite Other Villain (Not Separatist or Bounty Hunter): Favorite Movie Character: Favorite TCW Character (Ones who made their first appearance in the show): Character you think was most expanded/ improved upon in TCW: ---- Specific Topics:Favorite Reoccurring Planet/ Setting: Favorite One Episode (or Arc) Planet/ Setting: Favorite Ground Vehicle: Favorite Ship/ Starfighter: Favorite Ground Battle/ Battle Specific Episode or Arc: Favorite Space Battle/ Space Specific Episode: Favorite Lightsaber Fight: Favorite Character Development Moment (Entire Show): Favorite Scene (Entire Show): Favorite Music Track: Favorite TCW Legacy Project (Things released after the cancellation like Story Reels, Books, etc): ---- Other:When did you start watching TCW: What did you enjoy most about TCW: Favorite Memory from TCW: What are you most looking forward to with TCW Revival: |

I suggest we organize a rewatch first. My memory is fine, I've seen every episode probably 5 times  |

Besides even if we did a rewatch, we probably wouldn't rewatch the entire show anyways

I suggest we organize a rewatch first. There's a lot of good potential in that idea. Relive the (more often than not) rubbish of season 1, the blow up of scale and directions of season 2, the unique oddness of season 3, the epicness of season 4, the massive dips in quality of season 5 and the fun grab bag of season 6. Could be a fun ride for us |

I was thinking about a chronological rewatch, but honestly it’s probably more nostalgic to do the order we remember.  |

Honestly TCW really has no super memorable music tracks for me... Except for Ahsoka's theme at the end of The Wrong Jedi but that's it. Rebels has 3-4 really good ones that I remember quite well. Thrawns Suite, Trials of the Darksaber, Twilight of the Apprentice theme and the Star Cluster theme.

Damn, I forgot there really were some pretty cool tracks to TCW's soundtrack. Okay, that's it, I think I need to give myself a rewatch of this stuff. It's been too long, I realise that now.

Spidyyr wow I'm surpsied someone else picked Season 2. I figured everyone would just Season 5 honestly. I just have good memories from season 2 premiere, was really hyped for it more then the others when I was young. But season 2 premiere also led into a good arc whereas season 5 was like "here we will give you this teaser episode and then shove 12 meh episodes in your face". A lot of our episode picks are the same as well Btw what was Lola Sayu? Was that the place Yoda went to? Or was that the planet from The Citadel arc?

I was so hyped for Season 2 and I remember watching that premiere with my sister. I was looking forward to my fifth grade school year starting just because TCW was coming on October 2. And yeah Lola Sayu is the Citadel planet. I just loved the sulfur lava and the cool atmosphere it had. |

Pinda yeah I guess Citadel Rescue theme and the Clones theme are memorable for me but still not in the same way as the Movies or Rebels tracks that I've been thinking of. It's not the same, I don't hear most of those tracks you posted and immediately place where they belong to honestly. The title of the track is mainly what gives it away.

I searched them from memory, so to me they were definitely memorable. I have a thing for soundtracks though. But you cannot deny that at least the Death Watch theme and Savage's theme are memorable too. |

There’s like three tracks I remember from TCW. Ahsoka, Even Piell death, and that one cool theme from the movie where AT-TEs scale the fortress. |

I kinda remember all the premieres quite well, Ambush and Rising Malevolence I watched immediacy after finishing my paper route. Season 2 I was just super hyped for, season 3 and 4 I remember I had to watch both of these the following days by recording them cause I had soccer games Friday night. Season 5 I missed the premiere because we were on a cruise/ vacation and watched it when I got home, was also recorded. I've always liked Volcanic planets which is why mustafar was my favorite reoccurring location, it was also going to be in Dark Disciple |

Really though, it took them half a year to subtitle TCW and air it in the Netherlands... And I first found out about TCW just after season 2 finished airing in the US, so once I finished season 2 and I would have had to wait a long time for season 3. Also, back then I wasn't sure if I could understand English well enough to completely follow a series. And at first I did miss some sentences at times, but I think it is the reason my English is decent now.

For whatever reason, I really don’t remember much of watching the Season 4 premiere. Like I know I did but I don’t remember too many details.
And all of Season 5 I watched on the DVR (or sometimes even SW.com) bc I had taekwondo every Satursay morning.
