The Fastest Man Alive

Literally all of Star Wars has useless governments. The prequels, the sequels, the EU. All of it.
I believe it’s confirmed that the New Republic government and military were all but wiped out. There are still Resistance Allies out there though. Zay Meeko and Shriv Suurgav showed up just as the Resistance was leaving D’Qar and went out to find allies in the Outer Rim, and the Poe Dameron comics have Black Squadron doing something similar.
Nobody was coming to their aid before. That's why the Resistance existed in the first place.
The implication in that scene wasn't that nobody was left to stand against the First Order. It was that nobody believed in the Resistance any more. No one cared. Nobody was willing to stand with them: that's one of the primary themes of the sequel trilogy, especially in The Last Jedi: that many fail to care even when horrible things are happening around them, and that people have to be willing to stand with the cause otherwise tragedies happen.
The point of the end scene, likewise, wasn't to say that there's literally nobody left but the children to fight back against the First Order, but that thanks to Luke's sacrifice even in the most downtrodden of places that spark of caring / belief can't be completely quashed.

When I first saw a Porg
in that early trailer, I always assumed that those flaps were ears and that its torso was a neck. Then I watch the movie and it turns out they're furry penguins.
The Dragon of the Eastern Sea
And they're delicious. Just as we speculated

I assume they will be working with the scripts they already have, more than creating new ones, but I wonder what they will do with the Legacy content.
Finishing Crystal Crisis and The Bad Batch make sense. I wonder if we will get animated adaptations of Son of Dathomir and Dark Disciple though. Maybe not.
I’m stoked for some of the other arcs we never saw at all! The Boba Fett/Cad Bane one, the Yuuzhan Vong one, and the Rex/R2 one especially!
Wait, we're getting a Yuuzhan Vong arc?
Brightness
Holy fuck I just jizzed in my pants
Ahem, I mean a friend just told me they were rebooting TCW and scared the shit out of me, then I saw the trailer, realized he meant they were finishing, and jizzed in my pants
This day is a glorious day.

...Wow.
Revan was supposed to appear in one of those unfinished episodes, weren't they?
This song needs more love.
The Fastest Man Alive
No. Revan was in a deleted scene from the Mortis arc.
And yes, one of the scripts is known to have centred around a crashed Yuuzhan Vong ship.

The Mad Doctor
My coworker spat her drink into her computer. Then the supervisor came and spat his drink into the screen when Ahsoka said "It's been a while".
The Unknown
Our trope page for the show says they're going to use some unfinished scripts, apparently. Also, this is supposed to air on Disney's streaming app.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?You win this round, Disney.

Man. Disney does a lot of shitty things but man, when they do right, they do fucking right

The Fastest Man Alive
According to starwars.com’s interview with dave Filoni, the revival is 12 episodes. So I am thinking we will be getting the three arcs most necessary to completing the series: Ahsoka’s Walkabout, Return to the Jedi, and The Siege of Mandalore.
Foreign Troper
I fucking jumped out of my seat screaming in joy. Welcome back beloved Clone Wars
Is a bit disappointing but still. This is great news! Hopefully if this gets enough positive feedback they'll animate the rest of the unfinished arcs.

There's this big point at the end of Last Jedi where the Resistance calls for help and no one comes to their aid. Then as the movie ends it seems to imply that the First Order has won the day and quashed all resistance to it, but don't worry, because the children who are under the thumb of oppression are going to grow up to fight for freedom. The way it leaves off I fully expect Episode IX to start after a large timeskip. Now I'm making assumptions here. I have to, because the movies don't actually explain what the state of the galaxy is and how the war with the First Order affecting it.
