Blame Drew for agreeing to write the Revan novel, that trashed him. Same thing with the Exile.I just try not to think about it. Got myself a pink lightsaber crystal today.
Great episode of TCW; this current arc has been a lot of fun.
Spoiler:
A great episode for Grievous in particular, who is being slowly retrieved from the cold pits of Villain Decay. He won the space battle, obliterating Obi-Wan's fleet pretty decisively. Then he drove Obi-Wan to retreat in their duel singlehandedly, who was bailed out by Cody. And drunk!Hondo was awesome.
Is that a Peter Griffin emoticon?
I just like how the show has no sense of its own irony. The democratic Republic and freedom loving Jedi covertly aiding a cause to replace one totalitarian ruler, with another. All in the name of... I don't really know. What is up with this show (and Star Wars in general) and its monarchs? Every planet has a king, or prince, or something. Where are the "democratic" legislatures and presidents?

I'm told it's a playful bunny.

I think they took the "Princess" thing in the OT and ran with it.
As for the irony, this point has been addressed in the show. Off the top of my head, I recall in "Liberty of Ryloth" and the Mon Cala arc last season.
Of course a bigger problem is the idea that the Separatists, who wish to simply secede, are somehow the totalitarian force at play here. Obviously they've become that in TCW, but the Republic should fit the mold better.
