The Clone Wars: Season 5 (spoilers/discussion/speculation)

[Teddybrown]

Some notes on the future...in a Q&A with Hasbro, they indicated that they think this will be the show's last season. Filoni first disputed this on the official Star Wars Blog earlier this month, and reiterated his position in Insider 137, stating that the staff has already begun working on designs and scripts for a sixth season.

Didn't think that was enough for a Season 6 thread yet, so I put it here instead

Hope we do get a season 6, as this show is great, and it has some really nice moments too, tonights episode to name one.
The whole arc has felt like a little TV movie, but the way its ended, wow, those last few scenes were great.
Hope the rest of the season is as good as the first 5 episodes!

I wouldn't mind more seasons. They would really have to go back and forth all over the timeline of the Clone Wars with the episodes and possible break out old models of the characters not sure how I'd like that much bouncing around. It annoys me a little bit now.

this season is definitely arc driven. we go from one four part episode arc right into another four part episode arc with Yoda and the Jedi Younglings.

I actually like the idea of the arcs. They always come off as being mini-movies, IMHO.

Agreed. And it's not like it's just been this season either, they've been doing 3-, 4-, and 5-parters since season 2

5-Parters you say?

[DigiFluid]

Second Battle of Geonosis in Season 2 was what I was thinking of specifically. Can't recall offhand if there have been any others.

I know and they are usually my favorite episodes of the season.

Intriguing, most intriguing.

i'm kinda looking forward to this week's episode and this new arc. Yoda and Jedi Younglings.

On some level though it almost seems cruel, doesn't it? I mean, we know that within a year or so of this episode's setting, all of these kids are going to be slaughtered....

yeah it does seem a little redundant.

Interesting episode. Not my favourite, but interesting just the same. I always like seeing Ilum.
