'THE CLONE WARS" - THE AFICIONADO TIMELINE GUIDE

THE CLONE WARS epic story and characters so far...

For all THE CLONE WARS fans out there old and young waiting for the second half of Season Four to begin States-side (from January 6th on CARTOON NETWORK), I thought it might be nice to do an up to date timeline list of the series episodes so far, especially as Seasons One to Three have many adventures set at varying stages of the galactic conflict.

Here's the AFICIONADO's take on the series viewing order:


CAT AND MOUSE (the start of the Christophsis plot)


THE HIDDEN ENEMY (introduction of Asajj Ventress to the animated series)


THE CLONE WAR THEATRICAL MOVIE/PILOT (end of Christophsis arc and introduction of Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano)


CLONE CADETS (first extra battalions join the fight)


SUPPLY LINES (invasion of Ryloth begins, the King of Toydaria asks to meet the Jedi)


RISING MALEVOLENCE


SHADOW OF MALEVOLENCE


DESTROY MALEVOLENCE


AMBUSH (Yoda meets with Toydarian King Katuunko and a new alliance is forged)

From the Season Three NIGHTSISTERS episode mid-point onwards, the series continues in chronological order leading up to the events of the movie EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH...
