God the Bad Batch centered episodes of this entire season have been so middling.
Two lines about Cid betraying people in the past and just half an episode for the squad to bond with her is an unacceptable amount of setup for what is treated like such a big payoff. This season has wasted so much of our time with plot filler that the characters got like a single line every episode for any character growth or development. The fact Filoni and team think that we have any attachment to characters who have had ten lines of dialogue max each to develop them is so ridiculous. I don't care about Tech, I don't care about Cid, I don't care about Omega. These characters are not gripping, I barely know anything about them beyond their basic archetypes.
The only reason I'm at all interested in the next season is because the premise is somewhat interesting. Definitely not that random clone reveal, and they need to actually focus on the characters this time instead of a 25 minute podracing homage and a 25 minute Goonies homage. I don't give a frog's hair about homages, make me care about your characters for God's sake.
