[@kristofferremmell]

The line about Zeb being a hairless Wookie is so funny. The design of Zeb’s species, Lasat, was from the original concept art for Chewbacca.

[@toddtaylor6506]

A criminally underappreciated SW series. This show, Clone Wars and Bad Batch are better than most of the live action. SW series and should be watched by all.

[@bemasaberwyn55]

A great trilogy

[@ImprovedCameraman]

I disagree 🗿

[@Haydyne]

@@ImprovedCameramanyou’re in the vast minority, my friend

[@KevinLopez-dm2tb]

Fun Fact: Star Wars Rebels’ art style is based entirely on Ralph McQuarie’s concept art. He did the concept art for the original trilogy. A lot of unused concept designs and brought back into Star Wars and reintroduced and repurposed for new characters and ship models. For example: At 12:08 when the Ghost crew used Zeb as a Wookie imposter, it’s a reference to how Zeb’s alien race (The Lasat) was the original concept design for Chewbacca

[@Pinkielover]

Great series it only gets better of course there's one or two episodes that are iffy but it's still entertaining... Rebels is one of my favorite shows .. By the time your at the end of this series you feel like part of the family

[@surfntrucks]

3:05 "He felt something, a tickle in the force." "A tickle in the force." That line is legend and now canon. Love it.

[@brucechmiel7964]

The book A New Dawn was released about 6 months before the show. It's the story of how Kanan and Hera first met. You will not get a whole lot of background on those two without it. The comic 12 part comic series Kanan: The Last Padawan where you will learn the most about him. Set during the first season, Kanan will relive memories from his life as a Jedi and the years spent running for his life from the new Empire.

[@Scottred77]

When Kanan let's everyone in on the secret I also get goose bumps everywhere..... so cool

[@lindaouellette6656]

Ohhhh.. thanks guys!! I was one of those overly “mature” people who would not be downgraded by watching “cartoons” even if it was Star Wars… well here I am watching people, watch cartoons..over and over😂😮 Rebels is by far my favorite Star Wars content.😊

[@primal1233]

Star Wars Rebels is an amazing series! I hope you guys enjoy it.

[@DerpyTurtle0762]

The soundtrack for this series is killer. Kevin Kiner uses music from all the movies and even The Clone Wars show, it's a wonderful flow of nostalgia.

[@brucechmiel7964]

The message from Kenobi is used briefly in Jedi: Fallen Order.

[@Escuroz_8]

The yellow eyes guy is the Inquisitor from the Obi-wan show

[@nickthepostpunk5766]

I think we have another couple of Rebels converts on the way. Star Wars Rebels is my absolute favourite Star Wars content and you are definitely right to be watching it before the Ahsoka series - you won’t regret it!! Looking forward to watching it all with you! 😎💜

[@ArtisticalBird]

While Rebels is essential and ties directly to the Ahsoka show, it's still an absolutely peak series on its own, with a fantastic story and dynamic, outstanding characters. Definitely worth watching!

[@thedarkknight2221]

THANK THE FORCE THEY ARE FINALLY WATCHING THIS SHOW! Hopefully they can somehow finish it before Ahsoka Premiers.🤞🤞

[@kathrynallen2308]

Love seeing new people checking out Rebels! I love Kanan and can't wait to see more of your reactions

[@micahhill7503]

I'm glad you're finally watching this. It makes things from Mando and book of boba Fett make more sense too. Plus you notice now that Zeb shows up in Mando season 3

[@TheArrowedKnee]

Rebels really is a chronically underrated series, it has some absolutely fantastic moments, some among the best in the entire saga. And that hologram of Obi-Wan's message always gets me, just so powerful yet hopeful.

[@MyToastyToast]

I’m excited for this, while it would have been better to have started with Clone Wars, I know Ahsoka show is right around the corner so there’s harder timeframe, but this is absolutely a necessary watch.

[@Erawk]

Agreed about this being the necessary watch. From all appearances, Ahsoka's storyline in Ahsoka will be more closely tied to Rebels than anything in Clone Wars.

[@jennym2276]

They didn't watch Clone Wars?

[@MyToastyToast]

@@jennym2276 they (Jaby far more than Achara) kinda poo poos anything Star Wars animated and often would try to subtly pass over it on other videos

[@sakshamv26]

Dayum this reminds me of the time a few years ago when I used to watch this everyday on TV with my little brother

[@diegopansini3152]

In context: Ezra is the exact same age as Luke

[@algi1]

This might be might favorite SW animation.

[@firecat4529]

20:13 I think even Clone Wars has a reference to that moment and features that place 21:35 as well.

[@syedmahdi3254]

The show goes on to be even better and the dialogues, the arcs, the scenes are better than any animated show you'll watch. Keep looking out for the dialogues because they are deep and iconic, and the Easter eggs cause they are gonna be repeated in ahsoka for sure for sure

[@Erawk]

I love how Achara is completely enthralled and Flash, while also enthralled, is like, "this is a reaction video, I should probably say things."

[@prathapkutty7407]

Really? Andrew is one dropping all the star Wars facts like a true fan, while achara is on for the ride.

[@Erawk]

@@prathapkutty7407 and Star Wars facts can certainly fall under the category of "things." Not sure what your confused about.

[@ayshaf5505]

I legit screamed when I saw this come up in my queue 😭 Rebel’s is soooo gooooooddddd

[@emmafaubert9600]

oh my god I'm so excited to see more ! Love star wars Rebels so much, it has a LOT of strong qualities and I think characters is the best of all of them

[@msladygreen4]

I'm so happy you're watching this!

[@tessashield1980]

Wonderful surprise! Just finished my 2nd re-watch 😊 Wish you the best time with Rebels!

[@marcusrouls7472]

Very happy both of you are finally watching this. It's my favorite series of the Star Wars animation. Side note: Zeb is based on the original concept art for Chewbacca and Wookiees.

[@Bonjourdimanche]

I’m so excited for you guys to watch rebels! It’s an amazing show and only gets better with every passing season. Chopper is the best foul-mouthed war criminal droid and his personality is what got me to watch Rebels.

[@msoundg]

Chopper is the best, my favorite droid!

[@skydivingintofiction7532]

The person voicing obi wan is the clone wars voice actor

[@rowdeemunkee]

Kanans saber reveal is easily my favorite, just above Mauls.

[@markhenzel4637]

I dont want to spoil it but the guy in blue named Agnet Kallus has the greatest character arc in this series

[@lidiadiasdecastro4530]

I'm so so so glad you're watching this. It's such a good show, it has loads of heart.

[@alrightagain4605]

Kanan's reveal is soo goood!! Highlight of the season

[@joseduarte5737]

I promise you by the end this show will leave you wanting more which is perfect for ahsokas new series i guarantee u will laugh jump out your seat gasp and even cry and when a show can do that what can you say except amazing and thank you

[@bemasaberwyn55]

So couple of quick things. 1 is this series debuted not long after season 5 of CW aired. And the announcement that there'd be no more CW beyond the lost tapes. As such many fans of CW were shall we say livid when Disney announced that they would be making a series set before A New Hope two are exclusively on the Disney XD Channel. When the initial character designs were released they flipped out yet again because even though it had been announced that Dave would be a creative director on the show his budget was significantly less then season 5 and the last production of Clone Wars. Combine that with the perception that DisneyXD meant that a lot of the maturity that was present in CW wasn't going to be there so they felt that they were abandoning the more adult style of Storytelling to go back to being a kid show. And despite many fans there were from the initial run or how many people have come to Rebels since its initial airing 9 years ago, that perception of rebels being a kids show persists even to this day. 2nd is this series starts during the same year as Andor season 1. Because of my living Arrangement at the time I wasn't able to watch Clone Wars as it had been airing I'd enjoyed the movie well enough after I had seen it in theatres but beyond that I wasn't a fan of Clone Wars as I had not seen the series at the point that this series launched. I'd be interested in the premise of the series so I gave this pilot episode a watch when it premiered. From the moment we heard James Earl Jones reprise his voice as Vader up to the 22 pick up I was hooked on the story. And after the end of the first season while we were waiting for the second season to start I took it upon myself to track down and watch the six seasons of Clone Wars that had been released on Blu-ray and DVD. I cannot say enough good things about this series and the only thing that I am going to say is as you go on make sure that you have tissues handy because this series doesn't pull its punches when it comes to emotion and you are going to get hit and hit hard

[@claymccarthy6198]

That's the grand inquistor from obi-wan kenobi ... actually him and the fifth brother are in this series

[@brucechmiel7964]

The Gonzanti Cruiser is a very important type of ship. The civilian model was first shown in Episode 1 in the background while Qui-Gon and company first entered Mos Eisley. The Imperial version is just for this show but has been adapted to live action. Din helped Bo steal one in season 2 of The Mandalorian. Basically they are an auxiliary transport used for both cargo and personnel. They carry TIEs and walkers. The main reason they exist is the heroes can't go up against Star Destroyers every week. So they invented a new type of mid level ship for the Empire. These ships are how the Empire got the AT-AT's from orbit to Hoth.

[@mauriceharris1527]

23:21 IT'S ALREADY GOT SUPER HAIRY! YOU JUST SAVED WOOKIES.💗

[@ThomasTobias-q5h]

Star Wars Rebels gets better every season

[@ayezoop884]

Awesome so glad y'all decided to watch this!!!

[@Solonite]

I have just started watching rebels for the same reason to be ready for Ashoka show. Rebels is awesome

[@irvinstafford7780]

I'm sure you'll love this amazing show, even if you only started it to be prepared for Ahsoka. The problem is, it goes another step backward, and unless I'm mistaken, I don't see any reactions to The Clone Wars series, and without watching it, a lot of things in this series will go over your head. If time weren't linear, I'd recommend seeing Clone Wars first, but such is life since Ahsoka is coming in August. Better late than never to get to this series - my only worry is that it will end up being better than Ahsoka and make it pale by comparison. That's how much I love Rebels.

[@danielsherman2969]

What a fun reaction! I am awaiting your reactions for the series !

[@ThomasTobias-q5h]

Ezra is my favorite his character arc is 🔥🙌

[@vikkajackson929]

So excited to see you go through this journey!

[@neeladrireddy3068]

What about clone wars people? Still glad for rebels. Ashoka is introduced first in clone wars and much of her character arc happens there. Please do watch it. She is flioni's dearest character ig, and clone wars also shows Anakin in a very good light. It also has a lot of side stories about various characters, it's just a series worth watching.

[@markosmatrozos4175]

This is a great show, and I'm excited to see your reactions to it. Of course it's a little disappointing that you'll not watch the clone wars, since there are a lot of connections to it.

[@AntonioM120]

This is so unexpected, looking forward to more! ✨

[@Escuroz_8]

You guys will have so much fun!

[@kevinfhaney]

O'Hara that's what I like to call her but anyways it seems like she wants to adopt Ezra

[@markhenzel4637]

So weird that the guy who voiced Zeb has also played character that be in a team of peopel with dark backstory twice...this one and Cowboy Bebop

[@joshg5657]

Great choice! Give the show a little time; it gets very good once it finds it feet like Clone Wars.

[@nadezdadadamova4714]

Great reaction. Really loved it. You're great. Thank You. You have new subscriber.

[@AliciaKe_reviews]

Also kindly watch The Clone Wars too if you haven't, it's so much fun.

[@Jgutterud]

I was just thinking about a rewatch, ty for letting me enjoy with you ❤

[@mageeaaron2624]

Oh snaps! Looking forward to you two's reaction to this series! I'm little surprise that you didn't start the Clone Wars series. Regardless, I'm looking forward to these reactions 🙏🏽💪

[@millieboon]

Yes rebels it’s actually really good, s1 is definitely the weakest but still really strong and obviously has the big job of world and character building, this show does a very good job of developing the characters

[@jasonspaulding3949]

Your gonna love this show

[@vinsanity40k]

a bunch of reacters are getting on the rebels train, ahsoka is the conductor 🙂

they really censored "bucket heads"

great stuff

You need to watch the Clone wars also

[@darrenwright3026]

Long way to go yet , u just wait

[@Rea3443]

Niiiice

[@noamherer2062]

have you watched clown wars?

[@ProfArmitage218]

I've seen the analogy that if R2-D2 is a friendly dog who loves humans, Chopper is a surly cat who tolerates humans when it suits him.

[@russellgarifulla1114]

[@duelzz]

What a pleasant surprise 😭 my favorite Star Wars show! Hope you guys enjoy it

[@Tarik_sldt]

I love that you guys are finally watching this

[@ncard00]

But I hate that they didn’t watch all of clone wars first… to all the reactions channels, you don’t have to do reactions, just binge them individually in your own time. Also, the inquisitor guy/the guy taking to Vader at the beginning is the Grand Inquisitor, he was the main inquisitor n the kenobi show, if you forgot.

[@Tarik_sldt]

@@ncard00 yea this channel allways makes some weird and random decisions

[@ncard00]

@@Tarik_sldt Bad batch and fallen order would be good to watch too, but they’re not nearly as important for the ahsoka show.

[@Tarik_sldt]

@@ncard00 the thing is that it doesnt matter what they watch, they allways forget lore and know nothing about it. Its still fun to watch with them though

[@toamszkozak8822]

​@@Tarik_sldt well at least they will know more and will know the characters that will be in Ahsoka, I know that it's kinda bummer that they didn't watched clone wars but they don't have enough time before Ahsoka show will premiere and rebels will defenitly be more important for Ahsoka than clone wars

[@ethanjaubert437]

Fun fact: That Inquisitor that appeared in the beginning and in the end it's the same that appears in the Kenobi series that got stabbed by Reva

[@soumabharoy9516]

Its good u guys are watching this now, its essential to watch rebels, to understand the upcoming ashoka series.

[@Fairburne69]

In Tales of the Jedi Canan makes an appearance in the episode where Ahsoka is training at the Jedi Temple. It's easy to miss as he's in the background with no dialogue.

[@Freak_a_zoid]

Rebels is my favorite of all Star Wars….all heart and family. Thank you for reacting to the series. I will absolutely follow you along the way.

[@xronxronx]

You guys are in for a treat! Grreat show!!

[@Escuroz_8]

Chopper is the best droid btw💕😂

[@darrenwright3026]

Rebels is always a joy best to get clued up in time for any Ashoka references . Dam. This makes me glad I’m a a geek . Such a good geek community to be a part of

[@Celticshade]

bruh, its gonna be a while, spoilers.

[@csgollum]

Thanks for starting this review! You won't be disappointed. Plus, it will connect to some of the future movies/series with some characters flowing from and to here.

[@latech7671]

Rebels brought me into the bigger StarWars Universe last year when I watched it last year... ... And it only got better over time for me

[@angelaaaaaa04]

Omg!!! I’m so happy y’all are watching rebels!!!! One of my favorite shows!!!!

Space Aladdin really does become one of my favourite Star Wars characters

[@micahhill7503]

Also you know Kanan survived order 66 in the beginning of the first episode of bad batch and Hera's back story in first season of bad batch * I had to edit this cause sometimes I'm shit at typing

[@ReelUnapologetic]

Enjoy the Ride! Some of the best characters ever. Ezra is a fan Favorite. Family.

[@theeddytor3490]

this show made me cry. it's a long journey but it's amazinggggggg

[@fallenaasimar3878]

To get a bit more background about Ahsoka herself without needing to watch hundreds of hours of Clone Wars, you guys should check out the Clone Wars movie, it was the first appearance of Ahsoka and gives you a baseline of her character in her younger years and the relationships that formed who she grew into. Love you guys and so glad you’re watching Rebels!

[@Escuroz_8]

yeah finally it is time🥰

[@undeenwrites]

Yes! So glad you guys are going on this journey!
