To be fair of Yoda being a mischief maker and sense of humor in his first appearance, that was him testing Luke in his patience. Luke failed and revealed himself after speaking with the voice of old Ben.

I love when Yoda was talking to the Clones about how different they are in the Force, he's actually speaking directly to us, the audience. The Clone Wars showed the Clones may look alike but they are all different characters.

I really like how the clones expressed how alien Yoda and the jedi were to them. I kinda wish they had played around with that a bit more in the early seasons of the show. But absolut agreed. The episode is a gem and IMO not just easily one of the best of season 1, but also all of TCWs single episodes. Yoda really is in his element here; not as a warrior, but as a teacher.

Really set the tone for, “clones are each unique” which the show bacame known for☺️👌

This showed us what it truly it means to be a Jedi connected to the will of the Force, and showed what Anakin meant that Jedi loves all being, with Yoda giving the Clones and us the audience that they were special even if they shared the same face.

I thought Yoda was very mischievous on Dagobah as a way of testing Luke's patience, which is why he suddenly became all serious when he told Obi-wan he couldn't train Luke

I always found Mace's dealings with his clones and Syndula and hisbpeople on Ryloth to be intriguing, hope you cover it!

I was just talking to somebody about this episode a couple days ago on one of the Star Wars groups I’m in on Facebook. This is still one of my all-time favorite clone wars episodes; not only did we get to see the classic Separatist ass-kicking Yoda from the prequels, but we got to see something that the prequels didn’t really show, which was how well Yoda treated the clones and the respect he gave to every single one of them. All in all, the GAR did use them as disposable slaves (pretty much cannon fodder), and I personally believe that they deserved better, clone or otherwise… but Yoda still made sure to give them all the same respect he would give to fellow Jedi masters. TL;DR : Dave Filoni is a fucking genius

this episode had arguably one the greatest quotes in all of star wars. "deceive you, eyes can. In the force, very different each of you are"

Being episode #1, it was obviously the 1st one most of us saw. I was immediately hooked. Centering on Grand Master Yoda and his "being" was a perfect choice for a starter episode. So well done, only thing I would've wanted to see in hindsight is a sort of "set up" for the entire situation in the galaxy at that moment, but they did that in subsequent episodes anyhow, so no real complaints.

I always loved this episode and how Yoda showed that every clone are like identical twins, although sharing faces they're different people and that they also aren't just throwaway characters. The Clone Wars series has always been a huge part of my childhood because of moments like these in the series.

It makes me speachless how important this episode was.

My Top 3 are the Grom dance (hope they dance again in a future ep, but not in combat form; probably a competition or a prom event, I guess), the second Clawthorne witches' duel (Dragon Ball Z-esque, 'nuff said), and the Amity vs. Hunter duel [brought back so many memories of Avatar: The Last Airbender, particularly the action scenes involving Katara (same VA as Amity, by the way; the characters' pouches and spike weaponry were dead ringers) and Zuko]. Will be expecting the rest of S2 and the eventual series finale to be really epic (heck, the series finale is much more longer than the 90+ minutes long Sozin's Comet finale for A: TLA, so I'm I'm hyped despite the shortness of S3). Love truly is cute and meaningful, as previously shown in Kim Possible, A: TLA, Adventure Time, Steven Universe, Your Name, and many other works... as long as they're not Romeo and Juliet.

I never have and never will hate season 1. There’s so many amazing episodes and important character development. Any true SWTCW fan should appreciate season 1 and sees its value as well as its downfalls.

I always said, the first episode was the PERFECT introduction into the series. It’s a super nostalgic episode and all of Yoda’s quotes were beautiful

I like how the show started with Yoda centered episode and ended (before the last season came out) with yoda centered episode.

I couldn't agree with you more. I've gone back lots of times to watch just that episode. That was the yoda we all loved. If I had to say something negative about it. I would loved to seen yoda use his full force power. I just feel like we all got screwed out of yoda when he was in his prime. Would love to see a flash back to then.

I've always thought that "Ambush" was a masterpiece.

If all arcs are going to be reviewed such as in this case, I believe this series will be marvelous. I mostly already knew and agree with the points presented in the analysis, but the narration of it just.....caught me....just...wonderful.

"The first time around" like I haven't been rewatching TCW weekly for the past decade

This episode spurs a head canon of mine that jek(who is the clone that looks for him after his battle with the Senate) did find him and his sense of individuality stopped him from betraying his wisest of friends

I absolutely love "Ambush". It's always been a favorite episode of mine and certainly on season 1. The humor, the heart to heart, the action. They didn't have to write Yoda that way, but they made him even better for it and in my opinion made sure that in a show full of well developed and fleshed out characters, Yoda still maintained his own unique identity that no other character can quite match.

2 years ago I had a really long and rough day at work, was sore from the gym, and had to hit the bed early since I would have to wake up at 5am. I had just turned 21 and the responsibilities of an adult really felt like more than what I can carry. Before passing out I watched the clip where yoda is talking to the clones in the cave. such a heartwarming scene. it really brought me peace and reminded me of my childhood and how much star wars was such a big part of it, really made possibilities in life feel endless.

Dude I was literally sitting last night and I was thinking why no one makes a series in which to analyze the first seasons of the Clone Wars...so underrated...well here we go Geetsly ^^

Basically Yoda is that teacher who knows how to push you to your inner extent.

Dope. I watch this episode weekly it's def one of my favorites of all time

Easily one of my favourite episodes of the clone wars cartoon, when my niece wanted to try out Star Wars, this arc was what I recommended.

This was probably the best use of B1s for comedy. The fact that the commander is just a normal guy makes the others' idiocy seem reasonable.

This is actually the ONLY episode of Season 1 I remember. Absolutely a strong start to an awesome series.

Ah the first episode of Clone Wars… brings back memories

This episode in my opinion is truly what classic clone wars is. Outnumbered clones. With a Jedi Master against the mass army of droids and of course a sith. This episode has almost all the aspects I love about the clone wars. Funny droids, unique badass clones, classic jedi and some light interesting politics.

I always enjoy Yoda and his antics, but I especially love it when he actually shows his battle prowess. The contrast of a wise old patient and level-headed being needing a cane to walk around just suddenly turning into an absolute juggernaut with hardly anyone able to match him on the field of battle just works so well, even if Yoda never seeks battle for the sake of it and very rarely has need of his full might.

Yoda only gets playful and mischievous when dealing with children, the most playful and mischievous beings in the universe. He spoke that way to Luke when he first met him because he saw Luke as still being a child. Later, once Luke has been trained, he starts talking to him in a more straight forward and mature manner. He gets like that around the Clones because he recognizes them as being 13 to 15 years old despite their adult bodies, and is trying to teach them like he would teach a child.

I remember being a kid in my living room with all my Star Wars action figures set up, waiting with excitement for this show to premiere that night :)

This is easily the episode that hooked me onto the show, I love it so much, thank you for bringing more coverage of it.

One of my favorite Yoda scenes from TCW is in this episode. When Ventress is just talking loads of shit and whatnot.. and he just whisk her lightsabers from her hands and goes "Strong you are in the Dark Side of the force.... but not that strong." and then... just tosses them back to her, letting her know just how outclassed she is.

I never saw these small details at all when I watched Yoda, thank you for making this video

This episode is so underrated- I always loved it

Yeah, I love this episode because it shows Yoda as a Master Jedi, not someone sitting in a council chamber all the time. I also love the fact that he appreciates the clones as individuals, which they all are, plus you get to see Dooku and Ventress. It was a great way to open the series up!

Dude let’s go! Make more episodes of this series!

I can understand the differences, OT to prequels. He was in a very different time in his life and a very different environment. When joking with Obi-Wan, he was with the children and I bet he was a little more laid back with them while not engaged in a lesson. But most of the council scenes were discussing very serious matters with potentially galactic implications. I would love to see more of Yoda in future content.

I loved how that scene where he's talking to the clones basically introfuced the concept of The Force version of a soul . . .

This episode is actually one of my favorites in Clone Wars, glad to see it getting some much needed love

my headcannon has always been that prequel yoda is just his 'im at work, i need to be serious' mindset. and the goofy sense of humor and love of messing with people were always there, he just downplayed them around the council cause they're too used to him and he cant have any fun with them any more.

Ambush is one of my favorite storylines in the show. It took me a long time to finally watch clone wars. Especially after the movie. I didn’t like Ashoka much and didn’t like that Anakin suddenly had this padawan that had never existed before. This story with Yoda made me give the show a shot though. I love all the Yoda focused arcs of the show, they did him right.
