Summary
The Bad Batch crossover into the new National Treasure series and become treasure hunters.
My, my we are in a bad pattern of episodes with these last two, both of which have been the very definition of filler, and whilst last weeks’ at least gave Tech some nice hero moments this one is even worse and marches into tedious territory quickly.
I think my main issue with this episode is that it didn’t feel like Star Wars to me, treasure hunting is at the core of many great franchises but in my mind never Star Wars, I suppose that is why the sequel trilogy that was very MacGuffin searching heavy was so bad.
Also this was a very Omega heavy episode, and many of you who have read my other reviews know my thoughts on her, whenever she is the primary focus of an episode you know you are in for a bad time and or filler. Honestly, when you compare this episode to the Crosshair/Commander Cody one from a few weeks ago it is night and day.
I am also fairly bored already of the new pirate character, they will never replace Hondo and I question why they are even bothering to try.
Overall, an even worse episode than last week’s filler-fest.
1.5/5
Pros.
It is watchable
Hunter’s reactions were quite funny
Cons.
The new pirate character is deeply bland
Omega is as annoying as ever
It doesn’t feel like Star Wars
It is boring
