    Am I the only one that is seriously concerned about that? They're completely willing to disregard canon just to keep this turd of series going?

    YEAH I SAID IT! This storyline is bad, This writing is bad, this continuity is BAD. They would rather bring back Maul and give him Some Silver Age Comic Book tier revenge plan, over just letting Grievous kill someone? I'm Trying. So. HARD. To give this show another chance, but this disrespect towards what other people have done, is just...Despicable! How can so many of you stomach this?

    It's good to give things a second chance generally speaking, but the fact that TCW sometimes directly contradicts established EU canon when it could have easily avoided doing so is something that's been part of the show from the first season and through every season as far as I know. That doesn't mean you shouldn't be giving the show a second chance, but I don't think you should expect it to stop doing that or even have your hopes up in that respect.

    I don't see the writing and storyline to be that bad. Sure, there are some bad episodes here and there, and some pacing issues, but I'm enjoying this story overall.

    I don't really care if a character gets a "kill" or not. I never really understood this mindset in the first place. I don't mean to insult those that do feel this way, I just don't understand it.

    I honestly wasn't that crazy about Obsession to begin with. I thought most of the Republic comics were underwhelming except for those centering around Quinlon Vos.

    Seconded. I just feel sorry for the people who believe that all the Clone Wars is that which is depicted in this television show. There's lots of different multimedia out there covering this era quite comprehensively and entertainingly.
    Broaden your horizons people!

    That's exactly what i'm talking about, here you go shooting me down just because I don't like what they've done. They made a mistake. Am I supposed to be a sheep and just go along with it?

    Because the majority of us are able to enjoy the show for what it is and not become so involved with Star Wars that you get so worked up over a kids show because they 'dare' to overwrite a character's death when, if it is correct, every author of these works are aware that Lucas reserves the right to overwrite their work - if its in their contract and they sign it they clearly have no problem with it because they have agreed to that stipulation. Or some of us are able to have open minds and are capable of picking and choosing what we like from both TCW and the EU as to what we want to happen which is what I do. I love the EU but I also love this show. I'm proud that I'm able to put my anger behind me and not take things too seriously and enjoy both regardless of the contradictions that have occurred. The day I take a show too seriously and canon too seriously is the day I know I am far too involved in fandom and need to step away.

    I seriously don't get why people can't just accept that some people like the show and others don't. It doesn't make either side close minded or stupid. I don't need to "open my mind" any more than the rest of you folks. Its all up to personal taste.
