I wonder how many seasons of Bad Batch are we in store for. I can’t really see seven or even four years worth of stories based around these characters.

I would imagine a few. I doubt enough to connect up to Solo or Obi-Wan Kenobi. I could see four seasons, maybe more though.

And when it’s done, I’m still hoping for an animated series based on Shadows Of The Empire and set during and after the original trilogy. I know that wouldn’t be breaking any new ground but I feel like the animated shows have done a great job so far expanding the story around the core films and I hope they continue to do so.

Shadows will not happen. Pablo Hidalgo and some of the other story gurus hate it too much. I imagine LAL will move onto The High Republic or another less-explored part of the timeline next.

Well fuck Pablo Hidalgo if that’s the case. I wouldn’t hope for a full on SOTE adaptation at this point, but there is a motherlode of great ideas that they developed for it back in the 90s. Combine that with new stuff and you could have a show similar in structure to the Clone Wars spanning from shortly after Yavin to shortly after Endor.

I can’t see why LAL couldn’t be working within two eras at the same time. They kinda did just that with Rebels and Resistance.
