Disney cancelled it because they plan to cater to OT-loving prequel-hating fans and only to those fans. TCW is a prequel show and they can't have that. Also, it was expensive to make - they want cheap animation for kids. It's all business. Lets not forget profits and TCW not having the best ratings/most viewers..

Yeah Echo surviving makes everything with Fives kind of less emotional I guess I mean he was the last Domino squad member and he lost everything and all that but no there's another... TCW is reviving way too many characters.. Because they can't sustain 8 seasons with out reviving characters and going over things again. C'mon lets see some real battles and stuff rather than more episodes around characters. Good thing is most of them would start to die off soon... Bane, Rex, Maul hopefully Ventress.

Yeah we haven't gotten any good battles in a while... I'm talking about good old clone vs droid not that Umbara stuff which was great but still. Outer rim sieges as well and something exciting and uniqe but not some lame adventure story with droids or gunguns...

TCW is reviving way too many characters.. Maul was fine. He didn't die on screen and he deserved some more character development, it was good for the story and his character. Then they revived Trench... Well he survived some similar situation before, but it is still very unrealistic. But alright, I'll accept that. And now Echo? It's getting a bit ridiculous. He died in front of many witnesses... and yet he survived. Really, death is starting to be pointless in the SW universe. Especially since Disney probably plans to revive characters for the sequel trilogy since they're too lazy to create their own.

Honestly I could make a page of characters in TOR, TCW, Movies and other EU of characters that should have died....

TCW had 3 million per episode and a loyal fanbase. That's better than any other CN show.

But nah Maul should've been killed by Sidious or Kenobi in season 5... And Trench... Well they hardly explained his return... I mean you can assume maybe he got into an escape pod or something and barely made it out alive and needed some cybernetic parts but they said he cheated death once before already... Twice... Lets not..

Yah bro I don't like Disney because they really are kind of "evil" not just because they cancelled some tv show that's nothing compared to what else they do but I have to admire their strategies... They know how stuff works...

One of the big problems I had with Disney was that the original excuse for canceling TCW was that they wanted to "wind it down" and make way for the new movies. So why the heck do you make a completely new show? It just invalidates your reason for canceling TCW. It's sad, especially because there were so many more great stories left to tell. If they have the show just 2 more seasons they could have gotten everything, or at least most everything, they wanted to do done.

I don't see why Disney is blamed for everything though or just saying there name can be considered offensive for some reason.... No reason to hate on the new content cause TCW was cancelled. And people on the NR where getting mad over a Disney logo on SW.com... Wow what a tragedy that a Disney logo is now apart of a franchise OWNED by Disney... Seriously grow up a bit.

They know how stuff works... Indeed. Having Filoni announce the series was "winding down" was a great strategy. Much of the hate got directed at Filoni at first. And many people didn't release "winding down" meant cancelled. It certainly made the resistance of TCW fans far less extreme. So I'll admit they're smart... but still... one of the most evil companies in the world.

Lucas sold it to them... And I bet things like this where talked over and if Lucas cared he would have made a term of agreement saying TCW had to be finished.

Well, he probably didn't expect them to cancel it either. Several months before the cancellation they were promising another 100 episodes... so the decision came pretty late.

But Disney is just evil in general. Not just because of TCW. I never liked them. They manipulate the minds of teenagers, enslave people in third world countries, endanger people's health and the environment for profit... They're just evil...

But I don't see what this has to do with Disney.

In a lot of cases I think it's fine to blame it on them (if SW wasn't bought by Disney, TCW would still be airing), but I do agree people have taken it to extremes. Disney's a business and it's their job to make money. It's sad but it's the truth. Lucasfilm sold it to them anyway.

He probably didn't even know what Disney would do with TCW when he sold it.

Dave Filoni even said George Lucas constantly called him about new storylines.
