Tag Archives: The Bad Batch (Disney+ Series)

Only one more week to go! As The Bad Batch is approaching the series finale the Bad Batch still have to find Tantiss, so they can watch how Omega single handedly takes down the secret outpost and escapes with her fellow prisoners and space dogs and maybe even captured clones. So this week is all about the Bad Batch finally finding a way to get to Tantiss. Omega meanwhile is already busy plotting her escape and things unfold exactly like you think they would. Still, “Into The Breach” was actually fun, because the infiltration of the Imperial orbital station with a reluctant former vice admiral Rampart was pretty entertaining. Click through for the full spoiler review of the episode and let’s discuss the penultimate The Bad Batch entry!

Things go boom in this week’s episode of The Bad Batch! In “Juggernaut” the team once again tries to find out the location of Tantiss, for the n-th time this season, but this time for reals! It turns out Crosshair knows of yet another way to locate Tantiss… something he failed to mention all this time before “because”. So off we go! Meanwhile Omega is back in the lab on Tantiss and gets a full tour of the facility by Dr Hemlock who turns out to be a graduate of the Dr Evil Medical School for Aspiring Villains. And someone please give Emerie Carr a long, long hug, this episode proves she needs one! So there are things to talk about this week… primarily about how stupid (Disney) Star Wars can be… even if entertaining on the surface!

Another The Bad Batch double feature this week! And a lot of things happen for a change. We even get the best season 3 episode thus far, and of course it’s about someone other than Omega or the Bad Batch (just like in season 2). And the series also goes full circle… so there’s lots to discuss this week! Click on the banner or here to read my spoiler review of Identity Crisis / Point Of No Return and let’s discuss the latest two episodes!

There is a LOT to talk about this week. Not just about The Bad Batch and the return of Asajj Ventress (which comes as no surprise, they showed her in the trailers) and certain revelations, but I feel it’s also high time to talk about Star Wars as a whole, because “The Harbinger” is a perfect showcase for everything that is both good and beautiful and just plain silly and bad in Star Wars. So click here or on the banner for my spoiler review of “The Harbinger” and let’s discuss it all!

With this week’s episode we are past the halfway point for the last season of The Bad Batch and things are slowly coming together. While this week is mostly more setup for the finale, “Bad Territory” is an entertaining episode. Much of that can be attributed to the inclusion of Fennec Shand. So click here or on the banner for my spoiler review of “Bad Territory” and lets’s discuss the latest The Bad Batch episode!

The Bad Batch Season Three character posters were revealed on the Official Star Wars Social Media outlets. Click below to check them out.

This week we get a The Bad Batch double feature with Infiltration and Extraction. And the two episodes are the best of season 3 thus far. One reason for that is that the focus this week is mostly on Rex, Crosshair, Howzer and Wolffe with some interesting cameos, even the action is above standard, no alien monsters this week, instead we get an intense escape sequence when a deadly clone assassin and squads of clone troopers under the command of Wolffe, who try to capture Omega, raid Rex’ hideout.

Even though demand for The Bad Batch episode reviews is at a record low – as are probably the streaming ratings/ views – here is the review for the latest episode released yesterday! And it not only has some questionable low tech scifi again (one of Star Wars’ hallmarks) or shows to the audience once again how much Star Wars borrowed from Dune, it also has some good moments, whenever the Bad Batch are not running around shooting alien monsters that is, and focuses on its characters and this week it means Crosshair has a hard time returning to the fold and Hunter does not trust him at all. So click here or on the banner to read my spoiler review for The Return!

The fourth out of fifteen episodes for the final season of The Bad Batch was released earlier today. Omega and Crosshair crashland on a planet and they need to find a ship to get them off again. As it turns out Omega’s approach to things and her priorities are at odds with Crosshair’s who endlessly rolls his eyes at Omega’s way of doing things… Click here or on the banner to read my spoiler review of A Different Approach!

The Bad Batch dropped the first three episodes of its third and final season today. And the big question is… is it any good and worth your time? If you ignored The Bad Batch thus far nothing will convince you otherwise, the third season will not change anything about that… and if you follow The Bad Batch the first three episodes are probably ok, but maybe not all that you hoped for.

The Bad Batch will get a third and final season, this was revealed earlier today at Star Wars Celebration in London. A SWCE exlusive trailer was also shown which reveals that Palpatine will return in season 3, as well as Fennec Shand who was featured in season 1 and Wolffe.

However, the way animation is produced it is misleading to assume the season was greenlit just “now” or even recently. The fact that they could already show a teaser trailer means the season has been in (post) production for quite a while now, rendering takes quite some time. The dialogue was probably recorded more than a year ago, before Disney knew what the ratings for season 2 would be. Let’s just hope the producers were given advance notice that this will be the final season, so they can bring things to a proper conclusion. The Bad Batch will return for the final season in 2024.

Let’s also hope that showrunner Jennifer Corbett won’t waste time on random fetch quests and treasure hunts in season 3, since half of season 2 was entirely pointless, with the other half however delivering good to very good episodes that prove The Bad Batch could have been excellent if they had focused more on the actual plot.

Tales of the Jedi will also return. This was announced previously at SWCE.

Palpatine will return in The Bad Batch season 3

The Black Series is bringing 6 more figures to the line, focusing on their season 2 appearances. Look for 5 Walmart exclusives and 1 mainline release. Here’s the breakdown:

Walmart exclusives:

• Echo
• Tech
• Hunter
• Wrecker
• Clone Commando

Mainline release:

• Omega

Omega will be available for pre-order on April 11 at 1 PM Eastern, while the five Walmart exclusives will go up for pre-order on Star Wars Day (May 4th) at 1 PM Eastern. 

MSRP for all figures is $24.99.

Nerdist.com has the exclusive reveal.

It’s finally time to talk about the Bad Batch season 2 finale, which consists of three parts. Now The Bad Batch season 2 was very, very uneven, to put it mildly, but the season does go out with a bang and not a whimper and it goes in directions few people probably predicted it would go. In fact, this multi episode arc is in many ways better than anything we have seen in The Mandalorian season 3 so far.

The Bad Batch season 2 does its best to make its version of The Empire Strikes Back and thus the Bad Batch and the viewers are left behind defeated, with a (seemingly) dead team member and Omega in Imperial captivity. And then there’s a final reveal that will have viewers scracth their heads.

So there’s a lot to unpack, read my spoiler-review and let’s discuss The Bad Batch season 2 finale by clicking here or on the banner!
