Star Wars: Rebels
And here's our replacement for Clone Wars. Coming to Disney XD in fall 2014. Bridges the gap between Eps 3 and 4. Looks...very cool. Conceptually.

Great show. My MO is a little more difficult in that I wait until the season is over and then do the marathon, but MAN is it worth it not to have to endure the commercials and waiting from week to week.
The introduction of the Bendu in Rebels and the complete end to the old Jedi order and Sith in Epi VIII pave the way for both sides of the light and dark to be approached from a completely new perspective. I predict that Rey's new Jedi will have more attributes of the "grey Jedi" and will evolve in to something more in-line with what we've read in some of the later 'Legends'-era material, namely the 'Legacy'-series where Jedi were allowed to marry and could use certain powers that were forbidden to the traditional Jedi. As to the dark side, I believe Ren will ultimately succumb to the temptations that make all Sith what they are, though he will struggle with taking the steps necessary to achieve greater power in the dark side of the force. Again, he will probably take an arc similar to Jacen Solo in the 'Legacy' material. |

Just watched the two latest episodes. Pretty dark stuff for the Disney Channel.

Witness an older, pre-Pixar movie such as "The Black Cauldron". There were some VERY heavy and dark themes/imagery in that film and in others. "The Secret of NIHM"? Oh yes... |

Honestly, I've loved the Disney/CNW SW's stuff twice as much as the films they've made the last 10 years... |

It doesn't have quite the intensity of the film product, but it sure does pull you in, which is exactly what a great series should do.

That was a pretty trippy episode. Lots of cool cameos. Also adds a pretty odd new angle to the history of the Jedis.
