In the lead up to the long-awaited final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars (which lands on the service in just a few short hours from now on Friday, February 21) Disney Plus has put together a list of 20 episodes from the show aimed to help viewers catch up on, or refresh their memories of, all the essential happenings from earlier seasons.
All those episodes are, of course, available to stream right now on Disney Plus.
Normally, we wouldn't recommend that newcomers watch a cherry-picked selection of episodes from a show's previous six seasons, but in the case of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, which is comprised of many self-contained stories, that shouldn't be too much of a problem.
- Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 7 now has a release date and a trailer
- How to watch the Star Wars movies in order
- The Mandalorian season 2: release date
So without further ado, here are the 20 most essential episodes to watch from Star Wars: The Clone Wars as chosen by Disney Plus itself. Be warned, episode descriptions may contain spoilers.
