Anyone watch it yet? I am still processing it. I don’t know if I liked it or not.

Thoughts and spoilers here

I was expecting more closure

Zillo beast was just in this whole series as a plot point to allow Omega to escape?
Rex and his crew had no resolution
Time jump with Omega in the Rebellion and literally no mention of her anywhere else?
What happened to Cody?
Why was Scorch done so dirty as a glorified name drop, he would’ve been covering their rear to make sure no one snuck up on them
Nothing about any of Tantiss’s other potential secrets
The clones didn’t have resolution. They’re just scattered across Pabu and Pantora?
The brain washed/mind controlled clones were cool but ultimately useless and easily defeated after spending all previous encounters handing everyone’s asses to them
Bunch of force sensitive kids out now to be discovered by Luke? Hunted by Vader?
Assaj was just there to tell us Omega was force sensitive? They could’ve used anyone to reveal this
Will Omega show up in Skeleton Crew or the crossover movie/show?

Overall I think it was a very good series. Season 1 was decent, season 2 got really good in the back half and season 3 was very good throughout.

After season 2 did explore more of the "clones after the war" plotline I was hoping for a resolution this season but it is "The Bad Batch" not season 8 of clone wars. I do hope they finish that story though, seems like a single season special could do it but not sure they'd want to do that.

I do like that the brainwashed clones were just regular clones, not like resurrected Tech or someone else we knew. Not everybody needs to be a known character.

Was quite surprised to see the whole batch survive, definitely thought Crosshair would’ve done some self sacrifice to save Omega but a happy ending for once is nice.

Glad Rampart went out like that, we didn't need another redemption arc for an Imperial. And Hemlok got what he deserved.

Overall I think it wrapped up the series nicely, there are a few unanswered questions but hopefully they will be addressed in other upcoming media.
