A long time ago, in a Nigel's living room far, far away... Celebrate (or lament) the release of The Force Awakens with Chris and Mackenzie! We go way back to the first episode of Star Wars: Droids and then Force-jump into two story arcs from Star Wars: The Clone Wars to see how animation has helped expand the Star Wars universe.

What's new (everyone-else-but-Scooby-Doo)? In this episode, Chris and Mackenzie discuss some of the new shows they caught and decide which shows they'll continue to watch. Special focus on Guardians of the Galaxy, Wabbit, We Bare Bears, and Star vs. The Forces of Evil. 2014 set the bar high for new animated shows. Does 2015 hold up?
