    The Clone Wars CG show did such a good job of selling Anakin’s descent and building out his relationships with Obi-Wan, Padme, amd Palpatine. Good thing too, because the movies sure didn’t.

    Unfortunately the first few seasons are very much a children’s show instead of a just a show that’s family friendly. And the entire thing is out of order, so you need to follow a watch order guide for all but the last season or two.

        Very very much. There’s still the occasional episode of JarJar, or the droids, but it does get really good. There’s just so damn much that… isn’t.

        There’s various “watching guides” out there that put the episodes in chronological order, and some of them also try to trim it down to the “essential” episodes. It takes effort to get a good watching experience of it, but the good parts are great and fill in much needed character development the prequels lacked.
