Should there be another Season

With all the problems with continuity, and the fact some of the episodes are silly, should there be another season?

Personally, I'd say no since it sounds like Maul will be a big feature. That fact does not make since. Dooku turned on his apprentice (Ventress), with another apprentice (Savage), who turned on Dooku.

Also, the names of some of the characters shows no imagination at all:
Savage Opress/Cad Bane/ Moralo Eval just to name a few.

So, should TCW continue?

I liked Cad Bane actually. Clint Eastwood as a Duro, kinda cool to me.

And no, it should end soon. Its becoming unrealistic the amount of stuff they can jam into a 3 years in-timeline segment of galactic history, and the show itself is getting convoluted. They're running out of ideas and we get things like Maul coming back (though that was a marketing gimmick) and I think it should never have happened at all personally.

Well, we know there is going to be at least one more season:

Whether or not I want the show to continue, I have to say I don't. I used to faithfully support this show for the first couple seasons, often saying the continuity gripes weren't that big of a deal, could be explained away etc. However after Maul being brought back to life and the Mortis episodes (I consider Mortis to be the worst addition to Star Wars since Jar Jar Binks), I now think the cost of this show outweighs the benefits. There were some cool arcs, some cool new characters, battles etc. but it's not worth the price of the bad stuff the show has given us.

I'm not sure character names are a good reason to end the show. When has Star Wars been creative with names? Maul, Sidious, Ventress, Grievous. Not the most brilliant villain names ever.

I thought Season 4 was brilliant and a lot of fun. I'd rather be entertained by Star Wars once a week than not.

I think it should; give them a chance to clean up the mess they made with Maul and other stuff. If they bring him back for like two episodes and do nothing with him, that would be stupid and pointless (even more so than it is already).

Basically; it needs a satisfying conclusion. Otherwise the EU will adopt Ahsoka or Cad Bane, make some cool stories, and then TCW will make a surprise return and mess everything up again.

In summary; yes.

Personally I think the TCW keeps getting better and better. For those complaining about continuity issues, an end to TCW won't solve anything. It would probably just springboard the live action show, which will have all of the same continuity issues, just in a different time period.

One thing I can't understand is how Anakin, Kenobi, and the clone troopers can be frozen in carbonite and then not have blindness from it like Solo did. I know the Jedi can use the Force but, that doesn't explain the clone troopers.

C16: CB was based off Angel Eyes in TGTBTU, not off The Man With No Name (Eastwood's character). Personally, I like Cad Bane too but, his name could use a little work. Lomax would be a good bounty hunter name.

More stories in the EU about Ashoka and Cad Bane would be cool.

Peace loving Mandos--nonsense? And to top it off, a Mando Duchess/Jedi Apprentice romantic couple? Shocked

I cheered for DW.

Yes, I agree the Mortis arc was nonsense.

*guilty face*

Before now I've always defended TCW, but Mortis is so detrimental that I can no longer keep my optimism.

I prefer to watch the show by season, rather than episode by episode. I find it flows much better.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Also:

If they would be just a wee more careful with the continuity I'd say go for it. But then again, I wouldn't be surprised if they kill of Boba Fett and say that the man we see in the OT is an inposter.
