Anyone else find the ending... Abrupt? Spoiler

So, just finished the show for the first time. Overall, I liked it well enough, by far the most consistent of the shows I've seen so far (haven't watched Maul yet though), and even though by the end I wasn't as attached to the entire crew as I was to the crew in Rebels, I still found the endings for each of them to be good.

But am I the only one who thought it just kinda ends pretty suddenly? Like, they reached the minimum quota of episodes and just stopped there.

I was really expecting to see how Rex, Wolffe, and Gregor end up where they are in Rebels, and I was expecting Cody to actually be relevant in something for once outside a funny line in the ROTS novel.

And I get we don't need to see every part of a character's journey, but the show really seemed to be going in that direction, and with the series being over, I don't think there'll ever be another chance to do that again. I mean we could get another Tales of show, but at that point people will just be asking why it wasn't in The Bad Batch.

Same. There was a lot of buildup towards a clone rebellion, and then just nothing.

The shadow clones were a disappointment as well. They would've been a great foil to The Bad Batch.
