1) Does anyone actually care about the new show anyway?  I was under the impression it was worse than the prequels.

 

From the few episodes that I've seen (apart from that god-f**king-awful "Clone Wars" movie....), the series is pretty decent and several of the episodes that focus off of the main characters (the Clonetroopers, Anakin's appretice teamed with that female Jedi, Kit Fisto hunting Grevious) are very good. I think the two biggest problem that the series is that:

1. By it's nature, it has to maintain the terrible plotpoints that were introduced in EP2 (Anakin/Padme secret marriage, etc) and many of the Jedi characters that we meet in the show is ultimately meaningless since they will all die before/during EP3.

2. This show still doesn't hold a flippin candle to the excellence of Genndy Tartakovsky's "Clone Wars" miniseries.
