A squad of defective clones goes rogue in the first days of the Empire.
Availability changes by country and by week, so this searches JustWatch rather than guessing.
Can you skip Star Wars: The Bad Batch?
Yes, on a first watch. It is self-contained, and nothing in the main Star Wars story depends on it. Come back to it later if you want more. Show only the Star Wars essentials.
