Star Wars: The Clone Wars is an American 3D CGI animated television series created by Lucasfilm Animation, Lucasfilm Animation Singapore, and CGCG Inc. The debut film was released in theaters on August 15, 2008; it served as the introduction of the series. The series made its debut on the American Cartoon Network on October 3, 2008. It is set in the fictional Star Wars galaxy during the three-year interim between Episode II – Attack of the Clones and Episode III – Revenge of the Sith (the same time period as the previous 2003 Clone Wars series). Each episode has a running time of 22 minutes, filling a half-hour time slot.

In March 2013, following the 2012 acquisition of Lucasfilm by Disney, the series was cancelled. The unreleased episodes that had already been produced were referred to at the time as "bonus content". The German television network Super RTL began to air these episodes as a sixth season, which consisted of 13 episodes in February 2014. Season 6, along with the other seasons and the feature film, were made available on Netflix on March 7 the same year. The series returned with 12 new episodes on Disney+, serving as the seventh and final season. It premiered February 21, 2020.

The resulting conflict escalates into war between the clones and the Talz, with the Jedi caught in the middle.
16	16	"The Hidden Enemy"	Steward Lee	Drew Z. Greenberg	February 6, 2009 (2009-02-06)	2.01	2.51
Anakin and Obi-Wan lead Republic forces in an attempt to defeat the droid armies and free the planet of Christophsis from the Separatist siege. When the Republic is ambushed and forced to retreat, it becomes clear that someone in their midst has set them up. The Jedi believe this infiltration is a Sith-backed operation and go behind enemy lines to investigate. Meanwhile, Captain Rex and Commander Cody set out to uncover the traitor amongst them. Dave Filoni, the supervising director of the series, refers to the betrayal of the Republic by a clone trooper as them having "gone Jango", saying that "they have a little too much of Jango Fett in them". The episode went through numerous changes during production. Slick was originally planned to have red hair in the episode. However, when rendered, the dark hair model that was standard for clone troopers was used instead, helping him blend in with the rest of the clones rather than stick out as a potential suspect. The script of the episode had the opening sequence feature the clone troopers preparing a combat droid known as "The Beast", which resembled the dome-shaped mining droids from the original Star Wars film and a head of the Dalek from the British program Doctor Who. The sequence was cut from the episode, as it was decided to keep the 2 opposing sides fixed as "clones versus droids", and the scene involving "The Beast", whose function was not revealed, unnecessarily complicated the storyline. Most of the main voice actors in the series appeared in the episode. The episode's opening was narrated by Tom Kane, while Matt Lanter voices Anakin Skywalker and James Arnold Taylor voices Obi-Wan Kenobi and the tactical droid. Nika Futterman returns as Asajj Ventress in the episode. Dee Bradley Baker voices the clone troopers in the episode, including Captain Rex and Commander Cody. Matthew Wood provided the voices of the battle droids. "The Hidden Enemy" takes place on Christophsis, the first episode in the series to do so. The planet was previously featured in the 2008 Star Wars: The Clone Wars film. The episode is placed second chronologically in the series, after season 2, episode 16, "Cat and Mouse", and before the Star Wars: The Clone Wars film. The episode was meant to serve as a prequel to the film. Eric Goldman from IGN called it "another solid episode", praising its opening battle sequence, Obi-Wan Kenobi's dialogue with Asajj Ventress, and Captain Rex and Commander Cody's strategy to catch Slick, although he did note that Ventress' appearance in the episode felt "a bit unnecessary". He ultimately gave the episode a "great" rating of 8.5 out of 10. Dan Zehr from Coffee With Kenobi commended the episode, calling the chase sequence involving Rex, Cody, and Slick "thrilling" and saying that the episode was "integral to disseminating the mystery that will eventually become Order 66". Zehr praised the anthology structure of the series, calling it "quite brilliant", and said he was even more impressed with Dave Filoni after watching the episode. Susan Lulgjuraj from FanSided said that the episode makes the clone troopers feel like individuals, thus revealing their "dark side", and it raises moral questions about the clones' rights and freedoms.

Unbeknownst to the hunters, Anakin is loose in the Senate building. Hostage Crisis received attention for it being the episode that contained the debut of Cad Bane. The episode was generally well received for its willingness to portray violence, but drew criticism for its inclusion of Ziro the Hutt, due to that character being seen as uninteresting and as an offensive LGBT stereotype. The effectiveness of the episode's portrayal of Anakin Skywalker was disputed among critics.

The finale is significant for ending "with twin fandom bangs, courtesy of Boba Fett and a mammoth beast inspired by Godzilla."

While Anakin and Mace Windu recover from their injuries, Plo Koon and Ahsoka track down Boba Fett from the underworld of Coruscant to the desert planet of Florrum. Boba's revenge scheme finally leads to a climactic battle, and the life of a Republic admiral hangs in the balance. Bryan Young, a writer for The Huffington Post and Examiner.com, also disliked Fett's responses at the end of the episode when confronting Mace Windu: "He says something incredibly whiny." Young does state, however, that "[o]verall, this pair of episodes was a satisfying conclusion to season two, which really upped the game in this series in terms of animation, storytelling and suspense." GalacticBinder.com's reviewer Chris Smith wrote, "Lucasfilm delivers another exciting episode to finish off a tremendous second season." Adam Rosenberg writing in MTV Movies Blog discusses Boba Fett's return: "He's going to have to be put through a lot more hell before he embraces his inner badass. I'll say though... he's off to a mighty good start with the dual blasters he wears on his belt. Sure, they're almost the size of his thighs, but hey... he's still just a kid."

Ahsoka and Yoda take a group of younglings to a cave on Ilum to perform a Jedi rite of passage called "The Gathering", where they will each have to face an internal fear or flaw in order to retrieve a Kyber crystal so they can begin building their own lightsabers. The episode marks the first in the series' Young Jedi arc, the entirety of which was screened at the Star Wars Celebration VI convention on August 25, 2012. Critics praised the episode's animation and imagery, as well as the introduction of the Young Jedi characters to the series. IGN's Eric Goldman wrote, "From the devilish mouth around one crystal to the glowing center of the ice [one of the Younglings] traveled to, it was all amazing to look at." Bryan Young wrote that his favorite aspect of the episode was its exploration of Jedi mythology and compared the Youngling's rite of passage to the test Luke Skywalker was given inside the pit on Dagobah in the film The Empire Strikes Back. Jayson Peters of the East Valley Tribune wrote that he appreciated how similar the voice for Yoda in the episode sounded to the original voice-overs done by Frank Oz in Yoda's first appearance in film, The Empire Strikes Back. Eric Goldman wrote in his review for IGN that the episode missed a major opportunity to explore the relationship between Ahsoka and Yoda: the two were left outside of the cave together while the Younglings completed their rite of passage, but the two Jedi's interactions during this time are not featured. Goldman also noted that with six new characters being introduced during the one 22 minute episode, only the very basic aspects of the Younglings' personalities were developed.

Chronological order

While the series is designed to be an anthology of both standalone episodes and small story arcs, various events throughout inform stories, characters, and relationships to create a recognizably continuous narrative. In recognition of the release of the complete series on Netflix, StarWars.com released the official chronological episode order for the first six seasons on March 17, 2014; this was later updated to include links to the episodes on Disney+. Regarding the seventh and final season, StarWars.com revealed that episodes five through eight are set before the season premiere, "The Bad Batch".

The Clone Wars Legacy

At the time of cancellation in March 2013, there were still many episodes in development. Thirteen of these episodes were finished to become part of Season 6: The Lost Missions but there were still additional arcs that were never released. Lucasfilm released details of multiple story arcs from the unfinished episodes in September 2014. The Bad Batch was eventually completed and aired as the first arc of season 7.

Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir

A four-episode arc continued the story of Darth Maul following the events of the season 5 episode "The Lawless". The four episodes were titled: "The Enemy of My Enemy", "A Tale of Two Apprentices", "Proxy War", and "Showdown on Dathomir" (original production codes: 6.21–6.24). According to Dave Filoni, the four scripts "came out of one of our story conferences with George Lucas". The scripts and designs for the arc were adapted into a four-issue comic book titled Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir, released in August 2014 by the publisher Dark Horse Comics. For ten years, the comic was effectively the final Star Wars comic published by Dark Horse before Lucasfilm transferred the license to Marvel Comics in 2014, until in 2022, Marvel and Lucasfilm entered a multi-license distribution agreement with both Dark Horse and IDW Publishing to dual publish Star Wars comics once more. However, it was collected into a trade paperback by Marvel in 2018, and all reprints bear its logo instead of Dark Horse's.

The plot follows Darth Maul, who was captured by Darth Sidious at the end of the season 5 episode "The Lawless". He is tortured by Count Dooku for information about the Shadow Collective and the allies Maul has made. Maul escapes and heads to Zanbar to command the Death Watch army, but is followed by General Grievous and his droids. They battle Maul and the Mandalorians, who are soon overwhelmed by the droids. Maul flees and confers with Mother Talzin, who is revealed to be his biological mother, and plots to draw out Sidious by capturing Dooku and Grievous. The scheme works, and Talzin is able to restore herself to her physical form, but sacrifices herself to save Maul and is killed by Grievous. Although Maul escapes with a company of loyal Mandalorians, the Shadow Collective has fallen apart due to the conflict with Sidious, as the Hutts, Pykes, and Black Sun have all abandoned Maul.

Dark Disciple

An eight-episode arc with Asajj Ventress and Jedi Quinlan Vos was adapted into a novel by Christie Golden titled Dark Disciple, released on July 7, 2015. The eight episodes were titled: "Lethal Alliance", "The Mission", "Conspirators", "Dark Disciple", "Saving Vos, Part I", "Saving Vos, Part II", "Traitor", and "The Path" (original production codes: 6.13–6.16 and 7.05–7.08). The story follows Vos partnering up with Ventress, hoping to execute Count Dooku. Eric Goldman of IGN gave the book an 8 out of 10, saying it was great.

Story reels

Crystal Crisis on Utapau

In September 2014, four unfinished episodes were released in completed story reel format, titled: "A Death on Utapau", "In Search of the Crystal", "Crystal Crisis", and "The Big Bang" (original production codes: 6.01–6.04). The arc takes place on Utapau with Obi-Wan and Anakin investigating an arms deal involving the Separatists and a gigantic kyber crystal. The arc also deals with Anakin's feelings after Ahsoka left the Jedi Order. It was included in the season 6 Blu-ray.

The Bad Batch

The story reels for this four-episode arc were screened on April 17, 2015, at Star Wars Celebration Anaheim, and were later released on the official Star Wars website on April 29. Scripted by Brent Friedman, the four episodes were later completed and aired as the first arc of season 7 (with some changes from the original story reels). A spin-off sequel series titled Star Wars: The Bad Batch was announced in 2020; it follows the titular group of clones working as mercenaries in the immediate aftermath of the Clone Wars.
