No, Disney Plus exclusive. Which since I'm not on Disney Plus at present (have had to cut most of my discrestionary spending, pay isn't keeping up with inflation), I can't watch anytime soon.

Really been enjoying this season of The Bad Batch. I had pretty mixed feelings about last season, but so far this season's been a big improvement.

Star Wars show ranking so far:

1. Some arcs of The Clone Wars
2. Andor
3. The Mandalorian seasons 1-2
2. The Bad Batch
3. Ahsoka
4. Rebels
5. The Mandalorian season 3
6. Obi Wan Kenobi
7. Other arcs of The Clone Wars
8. The Book of Boba Fett

No plans of watching Resistance

I need to watch Ahsoka and Obi Wan still. I think the time period between Revenge of the Sith and Rogue One is becoming the most interesting to me. I want to see as much as I can about those characters and events.

Also, recently I had a spirited discussion with a fellow fan about who is stronger, Mace Windu in RoTS or Darth Vader at the height of his power (whenever that is considered to be, to me it's between RoTS and Rogue One). Thoughts?

I'm reading through the Darth Vader comics right now and I would certainly argue Vader. I think that Windu may have been a more skilled fighter with his saber, but Vader's power in the force gives him an advantage.

Fair point. Unfortunately we didn't really see Windu's command of the Force on screen, unless I missed it in some supplemental material.

My take from those comics is that Vader relies HEAVILY on the Force. To me it feels like he lost a LOT of his power after his fight with Obi-Wan and he calls on the Force a lot to help prop up his cybernetic parts.

Sith Anakin would have taken Windu down easily. Vader however, the fight would have been more evenly mwatched.

Personally, original trilogy Vader was a force to be reckoned with, but subsequent stories have watered him down.

I would personally disagree on the watering-down aspect, but agree to disagree there.

I saw the trailer for the Acolyte, and I am excited for that one

Definitely have to disagree here. His 2015 comic run and Rogue One made Vader seem incredibly powerful. I can see how his 2017 run made him seem a little watered down, but that's also when he's just getting started as Darth Vader. I haven't read his 2020 run yet, so I don't know what that one does for his image.

I don't know how to feel about it yet. The concept is very cool, but the editing on the trailer felt weird and I don't know if that's just a poorly-made trailer or indicative of the effort being put into the show. Star Wars series in the past few years have been a mixed bag for me, so I'm not sure what to expect.

Season three of The Bad Batch has really been a cut above the rest of the show. By far the best season.
