No Kamino Uprising.
Kinda makes sense the Kaminoans would have needed 10 years to make their new batch of loyal clones and given Tarkin got involved at the beginning, he wasn't going to allow something like that to happen even a month in.
Though we'll see what happens given we don't know if any of the Kaminoans are dead or if the bounties are still on Omega to do whatever they had planned.
Maybe They wanted Omega's genetic material so they could further accelerate the aging process to create an instant army: which could still happen in season 2 if the start of that season is saving the Kaminoans.
Potentially there could some form of small Clone resistance depending on what Rex does, there's no way he gets Gregor and Wolffe and decides to retire just like that, something must happen to make Rex lose his spirit and give up on fighting the Empire maybe Cody's death causes him to giveup, maybe all the times Rex mentions Cody is his way of coping with his death.

Clone Wars showed that the Kaminoans knew the war was a fix and what the chips would do, so there is a delicious layer of irony to characters like Lama Su getting arrested/or killed by the new Empire he helped rise to power.
In all fairness though, Nala Se not giving a shit about the Jedi doesn't exclude the possibility she gave a shit about the clones in some way, as they are in a sense her children.
I am curious to see how that shakes out and if they can make us empathize with her in some small way.
She did not give a shit about Tup, and she did not give a single shit about Fives.
She was a cold hearted monster, and she was rightfully depicted that way originally, but now they are trying to whitewash her for some reason.
Taun We was a movie character, and she hadn't done anything explicitly evil on screen.
Yet she was offed by a new character from another show in the most unceremonious way possible.
Nala Se gets to live and gets whitewashed via her sympathy to the show's kid mascot character of Omega.
The position of the Kaminoans is perfectly reasonable.
They traded with the Republic, signed up for them, and were given positions of extreme power within the Senate (able to levy their manufacturing of the Clone Army for political power), were paid extremely well, and had every reason to expect to be considered the saviors of the entire Galaxy as long as the war was won.
The Order 66 inhibitor chips were an anti-Jedi measure and given they felt the Jedi were a strange cult they didn't really give much of a care either way.
You could call this short sighted but would they really suspect something like the Galactic Empire would come of all this and steamroll over the Galaxy? Because if they failed to notice it, well, guess what, so did 99% of the Galaxy.
The Jedi had psychics abilities and not even they foresaw this future.

The vision was meant to be as realistic as it was, because the realm of Mortis was clearly a place of the Cosmic Force, beyond space and time. Father was literally showing him the future.
It was not your straightforward set of episodes, it was more of a character study, highly ethereal, mythological and deeply psychological.
It explored the very metaphysics of Star Wars, what Balance of the Force actually means, what it means being the Chosen One, and most importantly, what it means for Anakin Skywalker, as it was never addressed in the movies properly.
It was said a few times by Qui-Gon when Anakin was a kid, and once in RotS by Obi-Wan behind Anakin's back on the gunship. A hero being shown the future is a common mythological trope, it is forbidden to do so, as acknowledged by the Father.
The irony here is that Anakin Skywalker would follow his heart, the Son played on his guilt and his shortcomings, and in the effort to prevent it, he enacted a self-fulfilling prophecy.
That's why it was erased by the Father, but only that vision was erased. Everything else was real to a certain extent, and the characters have memories of it. Anakin Skywalker now has the weight of being a Chosen One on his shoulders, and understanding what that truly means.
Understanding his responsibility before the Galaxy.
But ironically, he would follow his heart again, but this time it is much more tragic, and adds layers to it.
Not only that, but this set of episodes served as a microcosm for the entire SW saga(I-VI), that captured the essence of it perfectly in just 60m, showcasing what Star Wars is truly about, and cementing Anakin Skywalker place as the savior of the Galaxy forever.

General Grievous was at his best when he was a tragic fallen warrior with an unrelenting hate and rage for the Jedi and not just a comic relief cowardly villian.
>Most memorable things about Greivous are from movies and nu-Clone Wars
Ah yes, I too loved that time when Grievous was hunted down his persoanl lair and almost got killed by a clone squad.
Or when he get his ass kicked 24/7.
I would even say that showing General Grievous being a Jedi killing machine without the Force would just highlight how dangerous Darth Vader was.
And also, you know, it would work with the Prequel theme of the Jedi not being unbeatable and on the decline.
Again the lie, Dave himself said he wasn't that invested at all, they talk some concept episodes, added a few things and that's it.
All this was Dave Filoni.
- George is always good at listening to ideas. He does pitch us every story now and gives us rather detailed outlines. In first season, it was a little different, but now a lot of the time George will come in and say, “I want to do a story about ‘X’.”
- Henry: On the first 13 episodes I wrote premises with Dave that went to George for approval, he made his notes, then we went through outline and script phase and George would see the scripts when Dave and I and Catherine were happy with them, he’d make notes and the scripts would go final.
- On most shows, that would be the end of the writing process, but on Clone Wars, that’s about ‘the middle’ of the writing process, because once the episodes get into animatic \ story reel in editorial, Dave and George go through them, rewriting, adding and subtracting, etc...
- Halfway through the first season, George was so excited with what we were doing, he came in one day with an outline and handed it to me, “Turn that into a script.” It was a story called ‘Count Dooku Captured.” From then on, George got into the writing \ scripting process in a big way. On season two, ALL of the story ideas came from George, except a couple that were originally written in season one by Dave and I. I think season three is the same way.
- I’m not sure we really had to think of things as off-limits simply because everything we do, we do right alongside George, but I’m the director as opposed to the writer so maybe I thought of it differently than Henry. I know I imposed restrictions on Henry myself when I could, at least to be careful with the classic characters. Henry and I would get in some great arguments and then George would basically be the “great Decider” as to what direction to go. We could come up with ideas and present them to him immediately, so there was no concern as to whether or not it “was” Star Wars. This series at least to George is NOT EU, it is a part of Star Wars as he sees it.

Wait, hold on, this is from a book called "Star wars alien archive", and is a canon book.
Does this mean that Grievous' accident is still canon?
''I tried to talk about this in the commentary I do online. Henry and I knew this would be a big one for EU fans. I tend to think of the Episode “Lair of Grievous” as a look more into the mind of Grievous. How you interpret the story depends largely on what backstory you like. If you believe Grievous was shot down in a shuttle by Dooku and put back together, I think that story is there, it’s just that Grievous has invented this new “story” of choosing his alterations. If you don’t believe in the EU version of the story or didn’t like it, then perhaps this new revelation that Grievous was a warrior whose lust for power made him choose to be altered, suits you better. Again a great many of the truths we cling to depend largely on our own point of view. Grievous was a great warrior in both stories, he was a Kaleesh in both stories, the major differences depend on what you believe about his past. In the end I have to say this, many die hard EU fans pick and choose the stories they think are canon based on what they like and what they don’t like. They read a novel they like it and it’s ‘in’, they don’t like it, and it’s ‘out.’ Well, we get our like and dislike in the EU directly from George and he created Star Wars, I have to say that’s a pretty big trump card. Regardless, much effort goes into trying to word things or shoot things so that the existing EU can remain, if only at times from a certain point of view.''

"That's largely been taken out of context in people's enthusiasm. George and I still talk, and I'll ask him some things. But he's just really enjoying watching them. What's in play are things we had discussed years ago. The Bad Batch were series of stories we had written in story meetings with him, and the Trace and Rafa arc were adapted off of outlines from then. These last four episodes were probably the least developed of what we had done."
Did you even read what you have linked?
- Dave Filoni clarifies George Lucas' involvement with Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 7.
- with Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 7.
- Season 7
- Recently, Filoni said Lucas still provides him with feedback and ideas on new Star Wars projects. This, coupled with Clone Wars season 7 episodes ending with a "created by George Lucas" credit, surprised fans since Lucas has been retired since Disney's purchase of Lucasfilm. These developments led some to believe Lucas was once again hands-on in the galaxy far, far away, but much like his season 7 credit (which is attributed to him being the series creator), there frankly isn't much to get excited about.
- his season 7 credit
- Season 7
- In an interview with EW, Filoni was asked about Lucas' role in The Clone Wars season 7. While Filoni admitted some of this season's elements (like the Siege of Mandalore and Ahsoka's duel with Maul) are rooted in conversations he had with Lucas, the Star Wars creator's involvement wasn't as significant as fans might have hoped
- asked about Lucas' role in The Clone Wars season 7
- Season 7
- Though Lucas' involvement in the final season was small
- in the final season of TCW
What do you want George Lucas to do? Come out and say it's crap?
Last time he did that Disney silenced him, he's obviously gonna shill for Nu-wars
Yeah and it meant in general dumbass, not just season 7.
George Lucas wasn't involved in it as he wasn't involved in the other seasons, there's no evidence proving he was that heavily invested in it.
Also you forget heavily invested for George Lucas means again reading some episode scripts making a little changes and funding it.
George did this for the Exapand Universe (EU) as well.
The rest of the retcon was clearly Dave Filoni.
