Just didn&#8217;t click. Couldn&#8217;t keep watching, so I stopped. And when it was cancelled, I was all, &#8220;Not surprised.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was too much &#8220;prequel&#8221;, not enough &#8220;OG theatrical trilogy&#8221; that I remembered. Kinda like the Warchowski&#8217;s SPEED RACER. I dug it. But it was too much SPY KIDS 3D, and not enough WIPEOUT XL. If it was more of the latter, I bet you would&#8217;ve done so much better!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But getting off-track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fast forward to today&#8230; or was it 2019? COVID got everything a blur&#8230; but when it came back, I was all, &#8220;Okay&#8230; I&#8217;ll give it another shot.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8230;you know, as I write that, definitely, &#8220;fast forward to today&#8221;. I mean, when the pandemic hit, NEEDED ME some content in quarantine! Only way I could think I was gonna push through the early episodes that made me drop the series. Haha. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But let me tell you, I&#8217;m glad I did push through. Because the way that series ended was FANTASTIC! Especially those last 4 episodes. Almost made me like the prequels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But where am I going with all of this? Well, outside of the ending, one of my favorite moments in THE CLONE WARS was DEFINITELY The Bad Batch&#8230; and guess what, it&#8217;s coming to Disney+ as a new animated series!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out the sizzle reel from Disney&#8217;s Investor Event below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sizzle | The Bad Batch | Disney+\" width=\"1100\" height=\"619\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YB9DIxdB198?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Couldn&#8217;t find any word on when the series will take place: pre or post Order 66. If it&#8217;s the latter, it&#8217;ll be interesting to see if the Order 66 affected them. If you remember, the Bad Batch is group of clones with genetic abnormalities, so they weren&#8217;t a perfect Jango copy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But loved the concept of a group of outcasts finding a family together. Definitely hope that continues in the upcoming series. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AND as an added bonus, as I write this, it&#8217;s been announced that Ming-Na Wen&#8217;s Fennec Shand from THE MANDALORIAN will be part of series, and will be voiced by the actress herself too! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So definitely on board for this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what do you think about THE BAD BATCH coming back as a series?
