Episode Guide: Nomad Droids


Synopsis: C-3PO and R2-D2's bizarre caper continues. Forced to escape a Separatist attack in a Y-wing fighter, the droids visit the world of The Patitites & the odd planet Balnab - and the inside of a pirate warship where they are forced to fight in a gladiatorial arena.

Nice bit of light-hearted fun. Interesting to see an ASP-7 Droid again.
Loved the Vulture Droid/Y Wing chase. Beautifully animated!

One of the best episodes of the series, imo.

Dear Mr Filoni,

As entertaining and visually stunning as these episodes are, and as much as I love the old Droids cartoons; …Well, now that we've had the homages to Alice in Wonderland, Gulliver's Travels and The Wizard of Oz, do you think we could have some Star Wars?

Thanks in advance.

That said, I do like the thought of the two droids destroying the socio-political systems of two separate societies, then clearing off. Although trying to cram three threads into 22 minutes makes it seem like it was written by a kid for his homework.

I still prefer it to poisoned Snapple, though.

(On a more serious note, many thanks for the upload)

hahaha!! I really didn't see it coming, wasn't expecting something so fast paced and think it works perfectly, felt that was pure star wars fun, instant classic if you ask me!!

I guess they'll go straight back to war now, but awesome to see they are trying such different things with a clever use of our fav droids, Mercy Mission didn't catch my attention on first viewing as much this one did, but with the 2nd viewing I thought it was actually really brilliant...

I keep saying it, what a great team Filoni & Co is, they are just damn good period

Mercy Mission just went too long for what amounted to a simple, little solution: Close the fucking manhole.
This episode did the same thing, but with three parts in one.

Was not expecting to enjoy this episode at all and was totally shocked when I loved it. Heck yeah.

Now, I want the preview for the next one.

The next episode - Darkness On Umbara will not be shown this week, which will air next week - Halloween Weekend.



From the latest Insider #129 - the next few episodes (as posted previously by ECT)

Finally!

A promo with new footage from the Umbara trilogy and other season 4 episodes is below. At 1:45, Bossk gets hostile with some shock troopers. (I guess there is going to be a prison break episode. I wonder if Bossk, Boba, Dengar, and the rest of the ESB bounty hunters end up in line-up together?)

So, that would be the show's possible take on the Z-95 Headhunter? Nice that they made it dissimilar from the X-wing.
