It's a wonderful middle ground between the live-action movies and the (still great) over-the-top-ness of the Tartakovsky series. It also has a great mix of humor (LOVING the Battle Droids) and serious war stuff (actual deaths).
It doesn't need to dismiss the previous stuff. As you said, the war is long (about 3 years between Eps II and III). Plenty of time for more. The movie and series (so far) fit between Chapters 21 and 22 of the Tartakovsky series. That's the first two episodes of season three or DVD volume two. And Lucas has said he doesn't intend for the CG series to supersede the original. | So then Anakin got the scar on his eye from the quest to save those nomadic people (when they put the little creatures on his face), rescued them and when they returned to the ship they got the order to rescue Palapatine, and Episode 3 began with that rescue. But on this new series, Anakin already has the scar over his eye.
I'm confused, but honestly, I don't care. I like what I saw.
Hey Joe, last night when I watched it, it said Broadcast in HD. And this morning I downloaded some HD copies. Did you get to watch it in HD?   I once farted on the set of Blue Lagoon. |

Happened during a mission we didn't see in the previous series. I think it happened in one of the comics or novels and I think that scar was given to him by Ventress, though I'm not 100% on that.

"What did you say? Keep pushing?"
"Yeah, you go nuts with that." |

Ok that makes a lot more sense now. I don't care about little continuity issues, but major ones do bother me.   I once farted on the set of Blue Lagoon. |

Cartoon Network around here is SD only. CobraIsland.com |

Of note, this is the first program that CN has ever broadcast in actual (not stretched) HD. Hopefully they are finally going to start using their HD channel correctly instead of simply stretching everything. Follow Me On |

I honestly didn't think I would, but I gave it a chance and it wasn't nearly as bad as I'd expected it to be. I still prefer Tartakovsky's Clone Wars cartoon, but that's partly because I think the guy's a genius (IMO Samurai Jack is the best carton I have ever watched).
I'll keep watching as long as future episodes stay as good as the first 2. |

The Droids are certainly rocking in this show
