Close your eyes and imagine this: A Clone Wars arc about the intricacies of droid personhood and cultural hierarchy, partially taking place in an existentialist void, and crossing paths with a story about an amnesiac Clone who's escaped the war just to find himself another harsh master. Oh, and the best explosion in the series to date. Now open your eyes and face the cold hard reality: This is one of the worst arcs we've seen yet. Hope yet lives, though. Why? Because we've made it through 100 episodes of the show. Oh, and because in the time since recording this episode, we've all watched the next arc. And wow is the group chat buzzing... NEXT TIME: Episodes 102 - 104 (""Eminence," "Shades of Reason," and "The Lawless"") You can support the show and gain access to a monthly Q&A cast by going to patreon.com/civilized Show Notes Astromech Deaths: M5-BZ Clone Deaths: Gregor (but probably not, thanks Dave) Star Wars The Clone Wars Season Five: A Sunny Day In The Void Featurette Hosted by Rob Zacny (@RobZacny) Featuring Alicia Acampora (@ali_west), Austin Walker (@austin_walker), and Natalie Watson (@nataliewatson) Produced by Austin Walker Music by Jack de Quidt (@notquitereal) Cover art by Xeecee (@xeeceevevo)
