I'm waiting for the episode where Padme is rescued by a kindly old couple named Luke and Leia, and comments that she loves the names.

Holy carp they got Al Pacino to do the voice of the citadel's 'leader'! WOW!!!! Ohh no that wasn't him? It was just a guy doing his best Lt. Colonel Sledge from Scent of a Woman? D@mn!
I thought this episode was pretty damn fun. It had a nice heist movie sort of feel, especially in the planning scenes. The fact that they had a carbonite chamber right in the middle of the hangar was really odd, and C-3PO was fun, but why was he hanging around there? I liked seeing Fives and Echo as full ARC Troopers; hopefully they'll be featured more in the next episodes. Tarkin was handled really well so far, even though there was very little of him. He had a nice back-and-forth sort of power struggle with the Jedi, which I liked.
It was actually James Arnold Taylor (Obi-Wan, Plo Koon, countless others) so it's not really "just a guy." His pauses were apparently based on Christopher Walken. The character was somewhat over the top but I didn't think it was anything to get worried over.
I've enjoyed the Savage arc and the Mortis Arc well enough, but like JJL said, this episode was fun. My son (5) and I watched it together and this was the first episode in a while that we watched again as soon as it was over. He loved the ARC troopers and new commando droids. He's already talking about wanting a clone wars-style Ugnaght!!!
I liked this episode as well. It had a pretty straight forward plot with a good blend of action and some meaningful dialogue. While I did enjoy the previous arcs, I kinda got the feeling that some of the mysticism and politics might bore kids, but I could be wrong. This episode was fun for kids and adults, which is what SW does at its best.
I was thrilled that they added Tarkin to the story. I hope they do more with him during the series and not just have him end up being a minor background character. From the OT, I always felt like The Emperor, Vader, and Tarkin formed a triad that gave the Empire its true power. It'd be cool to see what kind of roles he played in forming the Empire.
I'm glad to see that everyone enjoyed this episode. I thought that it was really good as well. Funky looking planet, huh? Lots of nice adventure in this one.
I still think they should have the Commando Droids revolt against the rest of the Seperatists' droids. The regular Battle Droids are very dumb and their leadership is obviously not very good, The Commando Droids are better fighters and vastly superior to the other ones. Logically they should want to take over in order to win the war more quickly.
