Star Wars The Clone Wars’ CORRECT Viewing Order

Star Wars: The Clone Wars was aired out of chronological order, so its episode listing on Disney+ is also out of order – but, fortunately, Star Wars has provided the right way to view the show. When George Lucas and Dave Filoni began Star Wars: The Clone Wars, they modeled it on something like a monthly comic book series, with groups of episodes linking together into one story arc, and multiple story arcs comprising each season – and even with occasional “filler” episodes.

Lucas chose to tell stories out of sequence, to jump around the timeline with impunity and explore multiple characters rather than stick with one particular protagonist as they work their way through the Clone Wars. There are arcs related to specific clone troopers, individual Jedi Knights, the Mandalorians, and even the resurrected Darth Maul. And then there’s the sequel series to The Clone Wars – The Bad Batch, which came out of a pilot arc within that first show, and continued when it first aired in 2021, to be followed up by at least one more season.

Despite this loose, almost fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants storytelling methodology – which stands in stark contrast to all subsequent Star Wars TV endeavors – a chronological viewing order increases Star Wars: The Clone Wars’ continuity and, therefore, narrative payoff; not only does it negate the need for audiences to try and keep track of all the myriad story arcs and how each new installment, even those released entire seasons apart, fits into them, it also maximizes character development and the flow of certain conflicts on the battlefield. In other words, Star Wars: The Clone Wars gets (somewhat) transformed into a traditional TV series.

But even with this “normalization process,” there are still some noticeable gaps with continuity, and they’re worth just quickly addressing. For starters, the opening chapter of Star Wars: The Clone Wars is set shortly after the galactic conflict began at Geonosis, but the central characters have already assumed their statuses from Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith; Obi-Wan is already a Jedi Master, Anakin Skywalker is a Jedi Knight and even has a scar on his face. Furthermore, several new faces get their insertion into the Star Wars timeline here but are never actually formally introduced – General Grievous, for example, has already assumed command of the Confederate battle droid army, already started his collection of lightsaber “trophies,” and, even, has already squared off against Anakin and Obi-Wan, apparently several times. And the entirely new character of Asajj Ventress doesn’t initially get any sort of backstory or explanation, and she, too, has already become well acquainted with the main Jedi duo (though this is perhaps a nod to her appearance in The Clone Wars’ predecessor, the 2D-animated Clone Wars, which was shepherded by Genndy Tartakovsky and was summarily dismissed from the continuity).

And then there’s the six-year gap in between the show’s original television run and season 7 on Disney+. Upon purchasing Lucasfilm and the Star Wars brand during the show’s fifth season, The Walt Disney Company didn’t want its $4 billion darling airing on competitors’ channels (in this case, Warner Bros.’s Cartoon Network) and opted instead to create a new series, with a new time setting and focus, to air on its own Disney XD channel; the remaining batch of season 6 episodes that had already started production would ultimately drop as Netflix originals the year after, with a small number of further scripts being adapted to the medium of comic books or novels (or released in unfinished story-reel form) in the months after that. It wasn’t until the launch of Disney+, with the need for exclusive new content, that the House of Mouse decided to revisit Star Wars: The Clone Wars and sign off on a final, seventh season. Ironically, StarWars.com indicates even Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 7 was aired out of chronological order.

Thankfully, there is no such issue when it comes to The Bad Batch, which picks up shortly after The Clone Wars season 7 and continues the relevant narrative story threads set up for Clone Force 99, with cameo appearances from many of the central characters from the first show. Saving The Bad Batch for watching after the narrative of The Clone Wars has closed is the best option for Star Wars fans, as new storylines and concepts are picked up and developed throughout the show. Those will of course be further developed through the confirmed season 2 of the show, and any subsequent seasons it may be granted after that. It looks as though The Bad Batch may be one of the key ways Star Wars will explore concepts of the era between the prequel movies and the original trilogy, such as how the Republic was turned into the Galactic Empire. Still, grouping everything together and using Lucasfilm’s official chronology of the Clone Wars, the viewing order looks like this:
