I give this episode a 8, it was an excellent episode. Not my favorite, (I still liked the Yoda episode more), but this one was still good. I'm also glad that Obi-wan and Anakin still made some appearances (even if it did take them a while to figure out something was wrong).

I also liked how it looked like Rex and Cody took after their respective Jedi Generals. Cody was conservative, while Rex came up with more crazy ideas and acted quicker, though both are still very competent. Liked how Anakin and Obi-wan were bickering over orders and "proper procedure".

Nice fleet shots, too bad they didn't slug it out for long, but its nice to see many ships in one place.

Defiantly one of the best episodes so far. Not one "cringe moment" and even the battle droids were fine.The new droids were pretty sweet also, no annoying voices. The only other thing I have to say is Rex and Cody need another episode!

This epsidoe was almost perfect. It made me love the clones more, they're far more badass than ever. Loved Rex and Cody and the other clones were awesome as well. Hopefully the Droid Commandos will show up later. This episode had a perfect mix of comedy, action, suspense, and ummm... cussing.

This episode was the best so far! I'm not even a big fan of the clones, but I may have to say this was the most solid episode so far. The dialogue overall was good and I really liked the whole darker tone of the episode. The beginning where they're all sitting around bored is great too, I especially liked the arm wrestling. Also the whole scene with Grievous and Ventress was awesome. And droids that were actual threats (a refreshing change)! I can easily give this episode a 10/10!

I thought this was by far the best episode of the entire first season. This was the kind of episode I really wanted to see, for all sorts of reasons. I love its Alien-feel, like the distant outpost, something gone wrong, spooky area, etc.

Even without any main characters featured in the episode for the most part, I thought it was the best one so far.

Oh and I really liked the commando droids, it is nice to see some droids that aren't incompetent.
