Sorry, I didn’t mean to derail another good thread into the dark wasteland of TLJ/Holdo discussion with my haircut comment.

I’m pretty sure we got Bad Batch/Martez sisters because they were mostly done already, and the Siege of Mandalore needed most of whatever budget Disney was willing to provide for the new season. AFAIK we’ve never seen any early animation for Son of Dathomir, so it may have been nowhere near as far along in development as those two and thus financially unfeasible to finish. I don’t think Grievous invading Coruscant even got scripted. We did see early animation for the Boba vs Cad Bane, Dark Disciple, and the Crystal Crisis on Utapau arcs, so I speculate that they were also up for potentially being finished, but I can empathise with why Filoni/other relevant decision-makers picked the episodes they did. We know Bad Batch was a backdoor pilot now, and it gave us a bit on Rex, Echo and clonehood in general, as well as a chance for a final adventure with pre-Vader Anakin, and I presume Martez sisters was picked for a reason very similar to EddieDean’s philosophy here: focus on Ahsoka. I hope that the other arcs get animated one day but I can’t see any reason why Disney would possibly shell out the funding now that they’ve already cashed in on the ‘final season’ marketing hype and all.
