Season 1 is weak, but overall this show is some of the best Star Wars content period. Each season gets better and better until season 5 which had some incredible stories. Season 6 wasn't as good as 5, but it was still interesting.

I finished watching the awesome Star Wars the clone wars yesterday and I have got to say the force is strong in this show.This show has pretty much every thing what a Star Wars fan would want, fight scenes, likable characters and of course different story arcs to keep you interested my favorite ones are when R2 D2 gets kidnapped by the separatist, the arc where the clones and the Jedi to protect a clone base and the one where Fives discovers his clone trouper chip. What more could you want?And it doesn't stop there the animation is awesome and the voice actors are incredible we even get guest stars like Nolan North, Liam Neeson, Seth Green, Gideon Emery, Simon Pegg and much more.At first, when I saw this back when I was younger I used to find it boring and annoying. But now I don't think that any more I think this an incredible show which needs a season 7.I would recommend this show to new and old generation of Star Wars fans.

Currently finishing season 1. The animation is good (not as amazing as 2003 one though), the plotting is nice, and the pace is good too. But it's really lacking in drama, maybe lacking a bit too much for my taste. The spirit of Star Wars is really in the drama, in the soap behind the action and adventure. The characters in this show however are really lacking the dramatic personalities we see in the movies (which is why some like this show more than the movies, I suppose). The problem with that is that I cannot see at all the main character, Anakin, as someone who could ever possibly be Darth Vader. Now the 2003 2D animated Anakin was the only portrayal of Anakin that I think is the most believable in his potential to be both good and yet be capable of evil. The Clone Wars Anakin is really more like a typical wholesome action-adventure hero, who is super adept, has a sassy disregard for rules he is way too talented to bother with, and has a cool sarcastic relationship with Obi Won and Ahsoka.Padme also, who already unfortunately had very little personality even in the movies, really has no personality here other than as a 'stable, well meaning female senator." There also seems to be no build up for the relationship Anakin and Padme have. Anakin in fact seems way more closer to and understanding of Ahsoka and Obi than he does with Padme.Then, Ahsoka has more of her master's pizazz of being headstrong and wanting to follow the beat to her own drum. How many snappy, unruly and sassy Jedi are there really? Still she's pretty endearing. And really, all the characters in the show are pretty endearing. It really is more cutesy and wholesome offshoot of the prequels. After all, that is to be expected, the show aired on CN.Overall though, it is still an entertaining show with a lot of creativity and is still very much Star Wars -- traveling to strange planets, peace and war with various alien people, and lots of stylish pg-13 battle action.

This show is so really awful and it doesn't even make sense with the movies. In revenge of the sith, general grievous and anakin meet each other for the first time as anakin says "You're shorter than I expected" but this show makes anakin and general grievous fight each other so many times. Also when count dooku battles anakin and obi wan in revenge of the sith, anakin says "My powers have doubled since the last time we met". He is referring to their battle in attack of the clones but this show makes anakin and count dooku battle each other so many times. Also, mandalorians were warriors not peaceful people with a duchess. Barriss offee should never have been made a traitor to the republic and Jedi because she is shown fighting for the Jedi in revenge of the sith which doesn't make sense at all. Bringing Darth Maul back to life was outrageous since no one could have survived that fall. This is why this show is awful and the creators clearly did not watch the prequels.
