Double review for Clone Wars episodes

Hey people!  I'm back again with a double update of the latest in the Young Jedi arc :D

With "Test of Strength", I thought it was genius to involve everyone's favorite space pirate Hondo; this actually gave the younglings a test of adapting to their surroundings in time of danger.  It also showed that Ahsoka was willing to do anything to protect the young ones that were in her care.  I will say that the show was a tad predictable-the with exception of Ahsoka being captured by Hondo to gain "profit"; thus leaving the show in a cliffhanger.


In "Bound for Rescue", I think they stepped it up a bit when they brought back Grievous for this season along with the clone troopers.  There were even some nods towards the Pixar film "A Bug's Life" when they did the circus scene with the younglings, allowing them to enter with ease to rescue Ahsoka.  It was also refreshing to see the scenes switch back and forth to from the younglings to Obi-Won; it's clear that Kenobi is still frustrated that he can't get his hands on the droid general, but at least he has the satisfaction of leaving him a parting give-by blowing him up on his ship.  And let's face facts, who didn't get a chuckle or two when a drunk Hondo was thrown into the air cheerfully proclaiming, "I'M FLYING!"

All in all, the latest episode was satisfying; it's been said that Grievous will encounter Hondo for the first time in the series-I'm certain that it will quite the episode.
