Full Series Your Top Clone Wars Arcs or One-Shots.

Doing a best or worst of episodes list for the Clone Wars is hard because hardly any episode is a self contained story, and like the rest of Star Wars, The Clone Wars had become more than just a show, expanding into comics and novels.

So I wanted to do a list that incorporates my personal top 25 arcs of my personal favorite animated series of all time, seeing as how with the release of Son of Dathomir, Dark Disciple and the two animatic arcs, it seems were pretty much done with Clone Wars for the foreseeable future. Yes it's very excessive, combine all the episodes on the list and the runners up it would have made a total of 106 episodes out of a technical 145 (The Movies is 4 episodes), but hell who isn't guilty of being a little excessive every now and then?

Runners up: The Hunting Grievous arc (Intrigue and Deserter), The Malevolence Arc, The Dark Disciple Novel, the Droids duo, and the Holocron/Force Children arc

25. Ziro's Escape Arc (Assassin, Evil Plans, Hostage Crisis, and The Hunt for Ziro)
24. The Rebels of Onderon Arc (A War on Two Fronts, Front Runners, The Soft War, and Tipping Points)
23. Boba's Revenge Arc (Death Trap, R2 Come Home, and Lethal Trackdown)

There they are?

Now I want to know what your top arcs or one-shots are? Any favorites? They don't have to be in any particular order, they can be top 5, 10, 15, 18, 20, or 35 for all I care, just give me your own opinions and choices.

 

Ambush
Trespass
The Mandalore Plot
Mortis
Umbara
A Friend in Need
The Box
Most of the Maul arcs
The Jedi who Knew Too Much
To Catch a Jedi

 

Yea I agree with most of those, Darkspine and some specific episodes mentioned by Anakinsfansince82 as well. I liked SOD and DD, I think those would've been probably the best episodes in the entire TCW.

 

Darkspine, my friend, you have a brilliant signature, can't believe I never noticed it until now.

 

Thanks very much!

 

The first ever episode with Yoda and 3 clones versus the batallion of droids.
Defenders of Peace
Ryloth arc
Zygeria arc
Mon Calamari arc
Kamino invasion arc
Geonosis!
Master Di last stand
Gregor last stand


Why oh why though did we not see MORE JEDI and those Jedi more often? I mean Adia Gallia, Shaak Ti, Cin Drallig etc, hardly featured. And we didn't see Mace or others in action for long. Nor did we see Obi Wan and Anakin together (also don't have those two meet Dooku every week!!)

Especially Aayla! Why did she only feature once? She was awesome!

Spamming is not allowed.

 

Just curious, but why spam threads cross linking a thread for Aayla in multiple threads?

TheSilentInfluence and Todd the Jedi

 

My mistake. Misunderstood how to suggest the thread. Will only mention if it comes up in discussion from now on, or pop it in the signature.

Yeah you don't need to link the Aalya Secura thread all over the place. People will see it on the SWTV and go and post if it interests them etc. Also it counts as spam if you post something that has nothing to do a thread your posting in.

 

Understood. Thanks!

Also, the Children of the Force arc was a good one - especially Cargo of Doom! Wished we had a Cargo of Doom style episode for the Senate episode with Bane.

 

One of my favorite was Ambush. A lot of it due to nostalgia. I was only a moderate fan before it came out, I watched all the movies, but I didn't know about the Clone Wars movie at that time. I was so excited for a Clone Wars show and I remember me, my dad, and my two brothers watched the first episode live. We loved it!

 

Utapau, (minus the Ahsoka conversation) Bounty Hunter Obi, (kind of) and the Clovis episodes in season 6 (if it was redone to add Across The Stars and San Hill)

That's it.
