Episode Description

This week on Skytalkers, we’re discussing the Umbara arc from The Clone Wars. Considered some of the best episodes of the series, we’re excited to dive into them: Darkness on Umbara (407), The General (408), Plan of Dissent (409), Carnage of Krell (410). Tune into this week’s episode to hear us talk all about this four-episode arc! 


  • What was the reaction from fans when these episodes first aired in 2011? 
  • How do these episodes develop the clones as individuals?
  • How is Rex shown as a leader throughout the Umbara arc? Fives? 
  • Why is it important to have a character like Pong Krell in this show and what does his character have to say about the larger themes surrounding the Jedi, the clones, and the war? 
  • …and much, much more!
