Teaser for Season 5 of The Clone Wars.

Its short and focusses on Savage and Maul and Death Watch. The quality of the animation remains good, and it looks like Savage and Maul are going to make a doomed attempt to take over the Sith. The teaser has a fairly dark atmosphere and focusses on villains. I wonder if that's an indication of how next season is going to play out?

This is going to be the last season right?

I don't know.

I suspect it will go longer if it continues to be successful, but I have no source to back that up.

I actually hope it stops. This season has been an insult to my intelligence and the stories were pretty predictable and/or stupid like "let's bring back Darth Maul or give the night witches super powers".

Yeah bringing back Maul was such bullshit. How sad is it that a character with 10 minutes of screen time is more memorable to a lot of fans than the main characters? This has nothing to do with the quality of Episode 1's characterization either. Boba Fett got the same following back in the day too.

I loved the fourth season personally. Way better than the third.

I'm currently watching the second season and I like it so far. It 'feels' more like the OT than the PT did (no disrespect to them. Infact, I really like the prequels and I realize they are supposed to have a different feel. But TCW fells like the fun space adventure the OT was.)

Yeah? Does Anakin undergo any character development at all? He seems too 'happy' to me after the events of AOTC. If there's one thing that I feel the show delivers, it's Anakin-Obi Wan missions. I hated how the movies separated them. When I watched the opening of ROTS, I wished there was more of that. The banter, the quips, them working together was brilliant. I'm hoping TCW continues to deliver that while maintaining the feel of ANH.

Looking back, most of the actual "something happens" episodes seem concentrated in the first few seasons. After that, filler and side stories seems to creep in a lot more.

And yes, we see more Vader moments later on from Anakin, and some heroic banter though Obi-Wan and Anakin seem about as many "separate but on the same mission" as "shoulder to shoulder" episodes. Some more heroic moments as well, though recently TCW doesn't seem to have the "classic star wars" feel so prevalent early on. Less light-hearted adventure serial (but not "dark" in the way a dark story should be) more side stories. The Twilight's been shelved for no apparent reason and isn't coming back onscreen, and some episodes were silly in all the wrong ways for all the increase in bloodshed, violence, and "mature themes". No point in tackling serious issues or plots if you'll botch them like the show did. Series 4 was a mixed bag with an idiotic overall plot and a few abyssal story arcs alongside some interesting oneshots and connected episodes.

Sure looked like it

While Maul was going on with his simple-minded rant, it occurred to me "uh, there's someone you forgetting..." Shortly thereafter, cue The Laugh.. :twisted:
"Of course, what would really happen is that in Game 7, with the Red Sox winning 20-0 in the 9th inning, with two outs and two strikes on the last Cubs batter, a previously unseen meteor would strike the earth, instantly and forever wiping out all life on the planet, and forever denying the Red Sox a World Series victory..."

Man Sidious does not look pleased with Maul's attempt to go solo.
