Erin’s Season 3 Favorites—Heroes on Both Sides and Ahsoka Hunted for SportWhat happens when you mix separatist political intrigue, a classic mob betrayal, and one of the darkest survival stories in Star Wars animation? Matthew and Erin dive into four standout episodes from The Clone Wars Season 3—Episodes 9 – 10 and 21 – 22—spanning Senate-era moral complexity, underworld drama, and Ahsoka’s most brutal test yet. From Sy Snootles’ mob-wife energy in “Hunt for Zero,” to the political nuance of “Heroes on Both Sides” (and Ahsoka’s iconic new outfit debut), to the terrifying Trandoshan hunt arc, these episodes show just how wide—and how dark—The Clone Wars can get.Episodes Covered

• Season 3, Episode 10—“Heroes on Both Sides” (Ahsoka’s new look debut)
• Season 3, Episodes 21 – 22—The Trandoshan Hunting Arc
