I think it was an all right ending to the show. When you think about it, TCW came full circle. It started with Yoda and then ended with Yoda  Well counting the movie... Considering the corcumstances it was a good ending. Like imagine if The Disappeared was the series finale... But I know if Disney let TCW run it course then the finale would be 10,000X better than Sacrifice. They were going to also show Order 66 in another perspective. |

I can agree with that. If I'm right, they wanted the show to dovetail into ROTS, so that would've made for an epic ending. Yeah, and it really sucks to wait six years to find out what happens to your favorite characters only to have Disney rear end you. Yeah, there's a lot of us that feel the same. As much as I find Rebels not half bad, I'd still take the continuation of TCW any day. |

And this is all why I wasn't pissing my pants to join the Rebels Buddy Train. |

I think they should've seen the possibility of TCW ending soon.. I mean 8/9 seasons is kind of ambitious I'd say... Mayyybbbeee they would've been able to complete the 8 seasons and end the show but it was likely George would sell before then and whoever bought it probably would've canned TCW just like Disney... Maybe instead of giving us arcs like the droid one or other political arcs they should've given us something that was actually important... You could say politics were important but it was just minor bills that didn't really have a visible effect and it was mostly just boring... I liked all the episodes but still... Like what they've told us about their future stories, it sounds like they would've been the best ever I think they should've focused on that stuff first and once it was done and they still wanted to continue TCW, do the other stuff

I agree with Newan that The Wrong Jedi's a bit overrated. The two episodes before it were better IMO. I think it's gotten glorified because it's the last true season finale and because Ahsoka left the order. The same's kind of happened to me with the Bonus Content. Since they were the last episodes I ended up liking them more than I would have if they aired regularly. Yeah but the bonus content was still really good. The Lost One may be the best of the show imo. Agreed, it was all good even though The Disappeared was a bit weird. The Lost One was awesome, but it gets overshadowed by the other episodes unfortunately. |

I know George wanted to retire and everything, but I'm really wondering why he sold the rights before TCW finished... he was heavily involved with it so he had to have known that it would have gotten canned if he sold Star Wars. So maybe he could have told Dave Filoni that he was planning on selling Star Wars soon and that they should start wrapping things up on TCW so they can conclude all of the important stories. Actually, the more I think about it, the more I think that a ton of this is George's fault. |

Even if they wanted to create a new show. I really wanted an Order 66 show. Maybe a surviving familiar face Jedi who survived Order 66 and the whole series would be about him surviving and finding more Jedi. IDK, but that would've been so cool and fun, and interesting. Then we could possibly see that not all clones possibly turned (Rex). Maybe Rex had a mutation and the chip/tumor deformed in his head, and then he accompanies the Jedi to find more.
Not sure how it would work out, but come on. Order 66 was one of the greatest things, but we barely saw any of it.

Or the ones that showed not all Separatists were bad (Which could have been made better) and then just some more that actually affected the story and was written better. But I think the problem was how they had 4 episode arcs. The Droid and Younglings should have been much shorter. Umbara could have been just three. Etc. And then we could actually see some better episodes. |

Better to do a show taking place between ROTS and ANH basically like TCW I'm kinda trying to do that with Underworld... |

And I agree with the arcs I preferred 2-3 parters which allowed for more stories Although four part arcs made for better stories... I guess it's quality vs quantity |

I guess it's quality vs quantity Yeah like the Maul arc deserved the 4 episode arc, and so did Ahsoka's. The Cad Bane + Kenobi (Deception) could have been maybe three episodes, unless the improved that terrible blowout of a finale (Crisis on Naboo). |

The Lost One was awesome, but it gets overshadowed by the other episodes unfortunately. The disappeared was really out of place and for the opening of an arc The Lost One was pretty incredible I think better than Revival. Kinda wish they had time to animate those Utapau ones cause I really enjoyed the Obi-wan and Anakin dialogue. |

I was planning to organize a group rewatch of TCW in January... maybe we should rate episodes during that rewatch. Good idea |

Most of the ratings changed significantly from these posts compared to the rewatch. |
