I haven’t watched that Star Wars cartoon but apparently the Jedi in today’s episode is from it. Was reading that apparently it was actually a good cartoon series that ties into the actual Star Wars story instead of just being a kids show 

The animated shows are actually really good. If you’re a Star Wars fan then you’ll like them. They’re not just for kids.

Where would one find this cartoon?  Or should I watch Clone Wars instead (is that a single movie?).  Basically what is the best way to get the back story on the Mandalorian, including the Boba Fett story. TIA. :cheers:

I’m enjoying this series and hearing (and reading here) about tie-ins like this, but I’m not a Star Wars expert.

Pretty much everything is on Disney+. That’s how I watched them all. They fill in the story between the movies and some other storylines.

We watch it on Disney. Same as Mandalorian. It's under Star Wars: The Clone Wars. All 7 seasons are on there at this time. I'm probably going to start it from the beginning at some point. I have watched a few with my girlfriend and I liked what I saw. I think Boba Fett is like supposed to be around 10 years old in that timeframe but I would have to look it up.

I think Ahsoka was the first character ever drawn up by on of the guys (Dave Filoni) who was involved in the producing and writing and directing of Clone Wars and he directed the latest Mandalorian episode. The last part below is important to know and is what plays into Ahsoka's decisions in the latest episode of Madalorian. 

Filoni and Ahsoka voice actress Ashley Eckstein also noted how elements of the character’s identity changed over time. She was always conceptualized as a Togruta alien with orange skin and blue and white head tails, but was originally named Ashla. At one point, the writers also wanted to imply that Ahsoka was among the younglings being trained by Yoda in Attack of the Clones, but that idea was written off due to age inconsistency.

Ahsoka Tano was introduced in the 2008 Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated movie as a Padawan assigned to Anakin Skywalker.

Seems to be a common theme this season. New episode airs: turns out to be the best so far

I hope not either. Probably depends on her schedule. She really got to be a buffed up chick from these previous days:

Quality stuff..and a Fett spinoff??  Sweet times ahead!!

Yep. That's awesome. It should be interesting to see how the show starts out next year. And maybe the spinoff is to keep people engaged in the stories until the next season is ready to start.

Lost my freaking mind at that finale, what an incredible show. They are doing a ton of spin-offs as well and I’m here for it. This show better than most of the movies.

I missed something. Looks like the Fett offshoot may not come until next December. Hmmm.....

Did anybody else notice that they mastered warp travel, super cool badass robots, laser rifles, death stars, but still haven't quite figured out how to come up with color monitors?

Excellent Final Episode by the way. At first I was a little taken aback that they let baby yoda die. But if you think about it, the story has been going that direction the whole time.

Excellent show last night. Season 3 is shaping up!! 

Bo-Katan is officially in the mix. Great way to bring her into the fold considering what the other group she was with did to her. :banana:
