Now that the wounds of the Prequels are healing, and the series has achieved a place of lasting relevance, we're revisiting The Clone Wars!

But whether we wanted it or not, between 20 George Lucas and Dave Filoni's The Clone Wars was the definitive Star Wars output. For those of us who were burnt by the Prequel Trilogy, the last thing we wanted were more stories from that era. Episode 22 :: Catching Up With The Clone Wars State of the Empire is Nerdy Show’s Star Wars speculation podcast where we “look for news in Alderaan places”.
