The Clone Wars: Season Five

"Some of the characters that we have created for the show will meet their destinies."

- Dave Filoni

The fifth season of the animated Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series debuted on September 29, 2012. It was first confirmed to be in development in December 2011. Unlike the series' four previous seasons, Cartoon Network airs Season Five on Saturday mornings at 9:30 ET; The Clone Wars previously aired on Friday night in prime time, at 9:00 PM ET.

Hasbro has suggested that they feel this will be the last season of The Clone Wars. However, Director Dave Filoni has disputed this. In Star Wars Insider 137, Filoni reiterated his intention to keep making the show as long as people are watching, and announced that his staff has begun working on scripts and designs for a sixth season.

Continuity
"A War on Two Fronts" was originally reported by ''Star Wars Insider 134 to be the season's premiere, but the premiere was later changed to "Revival," with "A War on Two Fronts" becoming the second episode of the season. Following the episode order published in Insider 134, Star Wars Insider 137 also reported the episodes through episode fifteen.

Since the printing of Star Wars Insider 137, a new airing order was released, beginning with the sixth episode "The Gathering." Pablo Hidalgo confirmed the release order inconsistencies through the official Star Wars blog. The original order from Star Wars Insider is thus assumed to be in error.
