So I hesitated for a while to start watching this show. I actually liked the Clone Wars a lot as much as I am not really that into prequel era events (and to some degree it’s what salvaged that pre-episode IV universe for me).
But the fact that this show is that same guy (Dave Filoni)
and the guy (Greg Weisman) that did gargoyles (which I admit I did not watch) but more importantly the spectacular spider-man (the best spider-man cartoon to come out in our lifetimes), I figured I’d give it a shot.

While it’s certainly not as dark as the Clone Wars and seems to be aimed at children, there is a certain degree of familiarity with the universe getting closer and closer to A New Hope that is effectively nostalgic. And, I have to say that I’m really enjoying the story and characters (4 episodes in) being a group of normal people almost like the original trilogy (or even like firefly in Star Wars universe). There’s some great moments (most pertaining to the jedi) that take me back to that binary sunset feeling, which is always a good thing.
I’m going to stick with it, and recommend you continue to check it out if you are at all interested.
