Best of Growing Up Skywalker
Episode 105: Rebels: Droids in Distress + Fighter Flight
In our recap of Droids in Distress and Fighter Flight, we talk about how Rebels holds dark themes very lightly, and how that makes it a time capsule for 2014. We discuss the morality of the Spectres, fellow rebels, the Empire, and Agent Callus in particular. We talk about brotherhood and being parents of unruly children. And we also cackle about the straight-into-the-vein injection of pure delight that is “Fighter Flight.”
Episode 42: R2 and C-3PO Arc
The R2 and C-3PO arc (The Clone Wars 4.5–6) has the strangest and yet most strangely delightful Clone Wars episodes in a while. We talk about fairytales, magical realism, the Balance, and droid rights/droid supremacy.
This arc is an actual fever dream, and we laughed a LOT.
Episode 13: Nute Gunray Captured
In our recap of the Nute Gunray Captured arc (The Clone Wars Season 1, Episodes 8-10, “Bombad Jedi,” “Cloak of Darkness,” and “Lair of Grievous”), Anna creates and becomes the first member of the Cult of Jedi Master Jar-Jar. Despicable wealth worms ruin our day, Ahsoka learns no valuable lessons, and we would like to formally apologize to all Chads, everywhere. Plus, we meet the inestimable Kwazel Maw — yes, the fan favorite swamp-dwelling dragon itself.
Episode 6: The Clone Wars Movie, Part 1
Introducing Snips! In the first half of the feature-length Star Wars: The Clone Wars movie, we do our best to keep up with the lightning-fast plot changes. Obi-Wan commits war crimes, Anakin deals with an intern crisis and we (reluctantly) explore sex ed for Hutts.
