I just watched the first episode of Clone Wars and I just don’t think I can do it. That was awful.

I realize this is from months ago, but I had a similar experience with Clone Wars. I forced myself to watch it, because reasons. What folks needed to understand is that the first few seasons, even, are George Lucas literally making a kids show. As the seasons progress, it gets darker, more serious, and much, much better. The sixth season, which happened years years later, is dark and awesome and about as good as SW as it gets. Filoni was in charge completely, and had really found his groove, the same groove you see in Rebels. 

If nothing else, try to watch the last half of season 5 and all of season 6. It's just a different show.

Season 7 is some serious and very grown-up storytelling. The last four episodes of season 7 are up there with ESB and R1 and Andor with some of the best Star Wars made

Ah. I meant Season 7, but said Season 6. My mistake.

Yeah, the entire back half of the LAST season is fucking intense shit. Agree with your take completely.

The Siege of Mandalore story arc (S7 last 4 eps) is the best SW content since the original trilogy. I say this as a huge Andor and R1 fan. If you stuck with the series from its first episode in 2008, until that finale in 2020, those last 4 episodes really delivered. Overwhelmingly satisfying. 
 

I've enjoyed the Ahsoka series, but I'm really critical of certain elements of that series as a result of the CW finale and Ahsoka and Rex's characters in CW. 
 

Andor is top shelf SW content too, and I enjoyed the hell out of it, but after 12 years of CW and Rebels, the investment paid off in CW S7.
