Star Wars: The Bad Batch

Little interest in the Bad Batch. They were fine in the Clone Wars final season and you could tell they were setting up this spin off, but I don't really care to follow their story

I am not certain there is a need for this. Especially given the placement in the timeline. They were introduced just prior to Order 66, and by the looks of that trailer, it will take place post-66. There was no mention that these guys were immune to the order...

Looks like they are immune to Order 66.

And a young Fennec makes an appearance. That will be interesting to get some of her back story.

So who is omega? I am kinda thinking she may become Mara Jade. That would explain the point of this show.

Mara Jade is a hawt mama....I don't want to think about a hawt mama when they were 12 years old. Yuck.

Also, was that body in the bacta tank a version of Snoke?

Well, she's basically Boba Fett's sister. It wouldn't surprise me if Bad Batch doesn't end up being an elaborate backstory for the adult version of Omega, who will show up in the new Book of Boba Fett series.

Fennec is a major character in BoB

The newest episode, Devil's Deal, is a fun fan servicey episode if you've watched Rebels

So far…

The “Heart of the Mountain” was stupid af.

After 3 eps of S3, is the purpose of the facility supposed to be a mystery. It seems pretty obvious what they are working on. At least to me. But they haven’t actually said it, and the framing makes it seem like it is supposed to be some big mystery that we don’t know about.

Mr Robot did this same kind of story telling in its first season, and it made the show hard to watch because I didn’t quite know if I were anticipating something, or if I was SUPPOSED to know it.

It's not suppose to be a mystery to the view, but its a mystery to the characters, so that's why its framed the way it is.
