Critics Consensus

The Bad Batch's beautifully animated adventure may be too lore heavy for casual viewers, but fans will enjoy diving deeper into this dastardly cast of characters.

Really liked all the arcs with crosshair and the empire, but found the ones involving the actual bad batch themselves to be pretty boring most of the time. I really wish they had embraced the darker side of the show and made the characters more flawed and interesting

This show follows a rogue force of clones navigating the galaxy after the rise of the Empire. The high-stakes, betrayals, and adventure make it one of the best parts of the saga.

This show has got me hooked on star wars again. Great story, great characters a really top quality show. I've never seen the star wars cartoons before and I must say this is brilliant. It's gotten me into watching the Clone wars as well which I hadn't seen before which is also good but Bad batch is excellent.

The Bad Batch is catnip for the dedicated Star Wars fans. It's an animated action-adventure series with thrills, relatable characters on the right side of the war, blaster guns and enough lore and easter eggs to invoke a few excited squeals.

Slant Magazine

The show's attempt to individualize its protagonists largely reduces them to predictable, banal archetypes.

Keith & the Movies

“The Bad Batch” continues the tradition of strong animated entries into the sprawling Star Wars universe. Like any series some episodes are stronger than others. But you won’t find a single bad one and plenty of great ones.

Rated: 4.5/5

Though the series doesn't defy expectations, it does keep viewers on their toes, serving answers to some questions about the Star Wars universe, and prompting some more.

The show feels like more Star Wars: Clone Wars, and yet never reaches the heights that it's sister series did, and ultimately doesn't find it's own voice as a result.
