Just wanna say: I completely agree with you in so far as:

1. Grievous, in the original 2003 series, kicked Jedi ass without batting an eyelid. He took on five Jedi and almost took them all down if Obi-Wan hadn't sent reenforcements. But in this 2008 series, he needs some help to take down a single jedi. No offence, Dave Filoni, but thats kinda pathetic.

2. Obi-Wan's romance wasn't that bad. His banter with Satine was brilliant, and I found it quite interesting to see Obi-Wan distracted by Satine. I think it was actually a good idea to do this.

3. Maul was alright in the series. They ruined his reputation and impact from Ep 1 a bit, but his story arc was quite good. No true complaints there.

4. Barriss's turn to the dark side. ''What? Just... what the hell was that about?'' Makes no sense, clearly non-canon. So what the hell. Especially since she's shot down by clones on Feluca during Ep 3 (according to Wookiepedia, anyways). Pathetic. Why the hell would you include that? Pointless. They should have done another Jedi who fraimed Ashoka, like one who isn't shot down in Ep 3!!!

5. I see what you mean about the canonical mistakes, but Anakin doesn't kill Ventress on Yavin 4 (Jedi are like cats, they always land on their feet), and the novels aren't considered canon, but the tv show is. As it's a five seasoned tv show, they have to make some interesting plots to avoid people loosing interest. The other series was different because it was quite short (about 2 hrs in total from start to finish) but this one is a proper, lagit tv show so it has to have episodes that are away from the battlefield.

all in all, good rant. I agree with most of your points.
