I'm binge watching Clone Wars, the Star Wars animated series.

To prep for the live action Ahsoka series, I've been binge watching Clone Wars, the Star Wars animated series, and despite the so-so animation, this series is some of the very best Star Wars out there. Really good character and story development. Ten times better than the prequel movies.

And it gets extremely political. I mean very detailed, very Liberal politics.

It’s amazing as well. The finale of season 2 (as far as I’ve gotten) is probably the ultimate fan service in the series.

that's where you learn the most about Ahsoka. I mean her relationship with Anakin is really developed. You get a much, much better idea as to why he turned than anything in the movies.

My one problem with Rebels is that Ashoka doesn’t sound “battleworn” - the voice actress didn’t really change her delivery for something set almost 20 years in the future from Clone Wars.

We want to finish both series before we watch Ahsoka on Disney+

This article gives you the correct sequence of shows that makes chronological sense:

I'm ready for Ahsoka.

I think The Bad Batch is my favorite out of all the animated series.

Omega's Kiwi accent kills me every time. "The Bead Beetch", "Eeky-o", "Wreeka", "Crosseyah", "Huntah", "Teek", etc. It's adorkable.
