Star Wars: The Clone Wars 2008

Perhaps the best entry in the Star Wars franchise after the Original Trilogy which provided a lot of backstory about Clone Troopers, Ashoka Tano (who should have been included in the movies), Count Dooku and how Darth Sidious A.K.A Chancellor Palpatine actually controller both sides and almost wiped out the Jedi Order.

The show gets a lot better in the later seasons. There are some episodes that are not necessary to the main story but they give us the time and moment to get attached with characters and some notable clone troopers like Commander Rex, Echo, Fives, Tup. The show fulfils its purpose to depict what happened between Episode II and Episode III and the final season couldn't be better.

Being an animated series it never shies off when coming to the darker elements of the Star Wars universe. With its beautiful graphics, intense action sequences and some high moments, this lived up to its expectations. The good thing that happened in The Clone Wars is this didn't dwell on something that is already shown in the prequel trilogy and it is not centred around a few characters which introduced us to a larger universe. This is a must-watch for every star wars fan and if you are new to the universe at least watch the prequel trilogy.
