Star Wars: The Clone Wars Season 4 Second Half Overall Opinion

Escape from Kadavo:
This was a great episode to start off the second half of the season. We had some good fighting scenes, character development for Rex (still hate him though), nice music and great scenes of Obi-Wan in prison. Anakin was again a hypocrite in this episode. It was great to see the Wolfpack (and especially Clone Commander Wolffe), get a cameo in this episode. Rating: 9/10.
A Friend In Need:
Another marvellous episode the crew gave us. I really enjoyed this episode, it was awesome. Especially as there was almost no Anakin at all, which really helped this episode. The "fake" Separatist's at the start and the weird scenes stopped this episode being perfect for me. The action and music was top-notch though, and the development of Lux & Ahsoka was amazing. Rating: 9/10
Deception:
This was a good episode, but not quite as good as the previous two. I liked the whole idea of this episode, but it could have been executed a little better. But the prison scenes were nice, especially the prison break and Boba vs Hardeen. Rating: 8/10
Friends and Enemies:
This is where the second half started to show it had really bad episodes. This episode was terrible. It achieved nothing, the whole episode was set around the same thing, ship's exploding. The action at the end was very forced, it did nothing, and the scenes that looked good from the preview's weren't good at all. Rating: 2/10
The Box:
Compared to the previous episode, this one was a heck of a lot better. This episode was amazing. My only real flaw with it were the bounty hunter's. For so-called best bounty hunter's in the galaxy, almost all of them were very lame, except Twazzi & Derrown. Embo was cool to see but did absolutely nothing. Cad Bane saving Obi-Wan's life was a great and unexpected twist in this episode, and I loved seeing Hardeen beat up Eval. Rating: 9/10
Crisis on Naboo:
This was another terrible episode. The last episode had hinted this arc might have had a purpose after all, perhaps freeing the Separatist prisoners, but this episode completely ruined that. It went nowhere, it ended right where this whole arc started, and you can't do that in a story. And the action it did have was poor. Rating: 1.5/10
Massacre:
This episode more than made up for the failure of the last one, and was both epic and brutal. The zombie's were nice, but didn't scare me at all, Riff Tamson's floating skull was much worse. The action was great though, and Asdajj Ventress became a much better character in my book, and Mother Talzin wasn't dull anymore. Plus, Grievous was finally portrayed perfectly. Rating: 10/10
Bounty:
This was another great episode, but not quite as good as the last one. The bounty hunter's were great though, and all got their chance to be a badass and throw down. It was great to finally see the debut of my favourite bounty hunter, Dengar, on the show, and he was amazing. The end twist was so funny. Rating: 9/10
Brothers:
This was the only bad episode from the season finale. Over half of it was pointless, the scenes with Anakin/Ahoka, Dooku/Grievous & Latts/Ventress were pointless. The saving part was Maul when he finally showed up, and Sam Witwer did an amazing job. Rating: 2.5/10
Revenge:
This episode was another amazing episode. Totally redeemed the previous one. Not quite a perfect episode, but it was still really good. Seeing Obi-Wan dueling with a red lightsaber was really funny, and the dialogue was top-notch. Rating: 9.5/10


Here's to hoping season 5 will be even better than this season, and hoping for that season 5 trailer already!
