The Jedi Order fights to restore peace to the galaxy by leading the Republic army of genetically engineered clones against the seemingly never-ending droid army of the Separatist Alliance commanded by the evil Count Dooku. Across hundreds of planets, the Republic forces face off against the Separatists with the future of the galaxy at stake.

Battlestar Galactica (Rent on Prime Video)

Faced with an un-winnable battle against a deadly enemy, they are forced to flee under the protection of their one remaining warship, the outdated Battlestar Galactica. Pursued by the Cylons-some of whom have now taken human form-Commander Adama (Olmos) and President Roslin (McDonnell) lead these last remnants of humanity in search of a new home – a planet called Earth.

Star Wars Rebels (Disney+ & Rent on Prime Video)
Synopsis: Starring a small band of heroes — Sabine, Kanan, Hera, Ezra, Zeb, and Chopper — Star Wars Rebels is set in a time where the Empire rules through fear and shrouds the galaxy in darkness.

It ends, however, with an Imperial officer reporting to the Inquisitor — the Empire’s Jedi hunter, seen and heard here for the first time. Star Wars Rebels takes place between Star Wars: Episode III and IV as the Empire tightens its grip on the galaxy and a rebellion begins to form.
