With the seventh season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars on the way, now’s the perfect to watch the animated series. Here’s how to watch in chronological order.

If you’re looking to watch Star Wars: The Clone Wars before the new Season 7 arrives on Disney + in February, it may not be as simple as watching the episodes in the order they aired.

Through its six seasons, The Clone Wars jumped around in the timeline with the earliest episode in the timeline actually coming in the second season.

There’s a way to watch the series in chronological order and, thankfully, StarWars.com provided it, showing the episodes jump around in the first three seasons before mostly settling in.

The Clone Wars movie is even thrown in there for good measure.

As of right now, there are 121 episodes with 12 more on the way for Season 7 premiering on February 17.

While most of the episodes are part of the bigger storyline, there are also some episodes that relate directly to certain novels or other storylines.

Just for reference, The Clone Wars takes place between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. It’s why we never heard of Ahsoka or some of the other characters in the movies (Mostly, it’s convenient because you can’t include characters you don’t know about yet).

The Clone Wars is popular with many Star Wars fans and if you’re missing out on new content after a deluge from The Mandalorian and The Rise of Skywalker, this is a good opportunity to enjoy a rich part of Star Wars.

Here’s the chronological order for Star Wars: The Clone Wars as given to us by StarWars.com.
