Unfortunately it needs to. Here’s hoping that something at least as engaging replaces it in short order. I enjoy have a small dose of new Star Wars every couple weeks.

Yeah, I’m really hoping Dave has something up his sleeve that we’ll be hearing about soon.

He did say a while back that Rebels was ending and he had something huge in mind, I think.

‘Star Wars Rebels’ sets 90-minute series finale

“Star Wars” is officially closing one chapter in its universe, with the animated series “Star Wars Rebels” to conclude March 5 with a 90-minute series finale.

The program, which airs on Disney XD, will return February 19 with back-to-back episodes leading up to its conclusion.

The cable network also confirmed that Ian McDiarmid – who has played Emperor Palpatine in the “Star Wars” movies – will provide the character’s voice during this final flurry of episodes. (Another actor had previously voiced the character, who has been heard but not seen in the series.)

The emperor is shown fleetingly in the trailer, which was released Friday.

Despite airing on a children’s network, “Rebels,” now in its fourth season, has been an intriguing offshoot of the “Star Wars” mythology, focusing on a small band battling against the empire several years before the events depicted in the original movie, subtitled “A New Hope.”

The question of what happened to those characters – which include a Jedi named Kanan and his apprentice, Ezra – has hung over the series in terms of how dark the ending might be.

In October, series producer Dave Filoni told CNN that charting a finish to the series represented “quite a puzzle,” saying, “The ending works as it’s meant to. One of George’s main things about ‘Star Wars’ is it is a story about hope. … I tried to stick to those themes.”

Lucasfilm parent Disney has ramped up its production of live-action “Star Wars” prequels, but Filoni said that there’s still a wide array of possibilities for animated storytelling as well.

I must applaud Filoni for finally having the balls to…

kill a major character.

 

 

Edited by a mod to put a spoiler in. I hadn’t watched that yet - so thanks. I think DC below sends his regards too.

^Thanks for the spoiler! I didn’t even realize the show had come back yet.

Wow, the show continues? Good to know, I hate the concept of winter breaks

Really disappointed with how they handled Sabine and Zeb capturing Rukh. I get that you can’t have Zeb killing him with his bare hands, but Sabine could’ve Raising Arizona’d him with a real grenade instead of a paint bomb, or at the very least they could have brought him back to the rebels. Drawing goofy shit on him like a passed out college kid and SENDING HIM BACK TO THE EMPIRE just isn’t something I can swallow, especially after what just went down.

I’m hoping they have a larger plan. It sounded like they did with the tracking device.

But yeah, ten minutes after the gang was throwing stormtroopers off of buildings like Pez, suddenly NOW we can’t kill someone?

Of course Rukh also has script immunity nearly rivaling a Skywalker.

Never tell me the odds.

Yeah. Though I’ll disagree in that Zeb killing him with his bare hands would’ve been fine. Revenge is a bitch.

Finally I’ve seen the episodes. I don’t really understand why some of you are surprised that how they handled “him”. I thought everybody knew how the series will end.

I know that by posting this some of you will accuse me of being a horny teenager.

Is it me or is Governor Pryce kinda top heavy, if you know what I mean?
