With The Mandalorian on Disney+ now The Bad Batch takes somewhat of a backseat, so reviews for the animated quasi sequel to The Clone Wars will always follow in the days after it is released for the remaining couple of episodes. However, as it turns out I actually liked the latest The Bad Batch episode a bit more than The Mandalorian season 3 opener. If you gave up on The Bad Batch before I cannot fault you, season 2 has been filled with pointless episodes about nothing and the only good episodes were without the Bad Batch as main characters, or they were even completely absent, and here I talk about the one Crosshair episode and the Senator Chuchi two-parter.
However, it seems The Bad Batch will shed some light on Palpatine’s secret cloning project that is still ongoing decades later when the now Imperial Remnant is after Grogu. Metamorphosis shows us the very beginnings of this project. The episode also has some space horror / Alien vibe and later quotes good old Godzilla. In short: Metamorphosis may very well be worth your time actually! And once again, you needn’t have watched a single season 2 episode to tune in, if the last episode you watched is the season 1 finale, then that is all you need.
So read my spoiler review for Metamorphosis and let’s discuss the 11th season 2 episode of The Bad Batch!
