501st. I think if this truly were a new show I’d be asking, “Why do the clones have such piss and vinegar? I thought they were genetically altered to be docile sheeple that blindly took orders.”

Even so, I enjoyed this one. It wasn’t super fascinating but I assume it covers and develops up future primary clone characters, Rex and Cody included. There was some welcome involvement from other series regulars.

The pacing was quick, even as it was a longer episode. It’s just gonna be inevitable with this sort of project, though. It surprised me to see 99 DIE though, given the gag video you posted a couple days ago!

I like that Obi-Wan (and Yoda) hasn’t yet had much to do with R2. I don’t know if that will (or should) continue, but so far I imagine he’s just dismissive of droids as AOTC establishes him and probably doesn’t remember R2 by ANH or at least doesn’t assume it’s the same droid right away. Like if you finally remember someone’s name 10 minutes into a gathering and don’t really have the occasion afterward to use it. Like old Ben just doesn’t really care about droids much, kindly though he is.

Okay, I don’t know if that’s helpful as I’m just giving you my thoughts as I imagine having them if this were a new show.
