%% For unreleased works where all we have to go on is advertising and other supplemental materials, we have some detailed guidelines, which can be found at Administrivia/CreatingAWorkPageForAnUpcomingWork.

* CerebusRollercoaster: The premiere of the first season is a hopeful and low-stakes episodes showing Ahsoka's infancy and her home village, depicted as a loving and nurturing environment that worshipped the Jedi and the Force. The three subsequent episodes are about Dooku's fall of the Sith, caused by the corruption of the Republic and the death of Qui-Gon Jinn, ending with Dooku permanently joining Darth Sidious. The fifth episode is lighter in comparison, revolving around Anakin training Ahsoka and being reminiscent of the earlier episodes of ''The Clone Wars''. The sixth episode then goes back to being bleak by showing Ahsoka post-Order 66, including her [[Film/RevengeOfTheSith attending Padme Amidala's funeral on Naboo]].

** Jedi characters have said they’ll leave politics to the politicians or some variation multiple times and we are outright informed that Jedi are forbidden from involving themselves in politics without the High Councils permission who themselves need permission from the Senate.

** Even after his fall from grace, Dooku clearly loves Qui-Gon as a son, and is heartbroken and filled with rage when he dies duelling Maul on Naboo. At the same time, it's darkly subverted with Palpatine, who tries to act as if he's equally affected by Maul's own apparent death ("you lost an apprentice and so did I!") to get sympathy from Dooku, but clearly doesn't care that much.

* CanonImmigrant: Pav-ti hunts some kybuck in the first episode, which are animals from the ''Legends'' continuity, particularly ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsCloneWars'' where one acted as Yoda’s personal steed.

''Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi'' is a Creator/DisneyPlus animated anthology series set in the ''Franchise/StarWars'' universe, and serves as a prequel/interquel/sequel to ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'', with much of the cast and crew returning from that series. Set in intervening periods before, during, and after the Clone Wars, the show focuses on Ahsoka Tano (Creator/AshleyEckstein), Count Dooku (Creator/CoreyBurton), and Qui-Gon Jinn (Creator/LiamNeeson and his son Micheál Richardson) at various points in their lives, showing how they came to be the characters the audiences first meet them as. In addition, Anakin Skywalker (Creator/MattLanter), Mace Windu (Creator/TerrenceCCarson), Yoda, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Bail Organa, Tera Sinube, Yaddle (Creator/BryceDallasHoward), and the Clone Army put in an appearance. Creator/JaninaGavankar, who played Iden Versio in ''VideoGame/StarWarsBattlefrontII2017'', appears in the series as Pav-ti, Ahsoka's mother.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Yaddle's role in "The Sith Lord" seems very Yoda-like. Aside from being a member of Yoda's species, she serves as a mentor to Dooku (Yoda was Dooku's master), friendly with Qui-Gon while also agreeing with Yoda's stance that the Sith may be back, but not to jump to conclusions until more info is obtained. Her lightsaber blade is even green like Yoda's even though it was orange in ''Legends''. This may have been intentional (see ActorExistenceLimbo on the Trivia tab.)

* AmbiguousInnocence: Mace Windu reports Dooku's CowboyCop methods on Raxus to the Council, which leads to Dooku being passed over for a seat on the Council (which he had hoped to get into order to enact reforms) that goes to Windu instead. Dooku clearly suspects that Windu's actions due to wanting the seat, while Windu insists he was just following protocol and was just as surprised as anyone when he was offered it. It's not clear which is true, as to Mace's credit he has always been duty-bound, but Dooku's suspicion worsens his disillusionment with the Order.

* AmbiguousInnocence: Mace Windu reports Dooku's CowboyCop methods on Raxus to the Council, which leads to Dooku being passed over for a seat on the Council (which he had hoped to get into order to enact reforms) that goes to Windu instead. Dooku clearly suspects that Windu's actions were a politically motivated power grab, while Windu insists he was just following protocol and was just as surprised as anyone when he was offered the seat. It's not clear which is true, as to Mace's credit he has always been duty-bound, but Dooku's justifiable suspicion worsens his disillusionment with the Order.

* ByTheBookCop: Well, Jedi aren't cops ''per se'' but Mace is adamant on following the official procedure to the letter, in comparison to Dooku's wish to investigate. Mace later ends up ratting Dooku out to the council and (possibly) costing him a council seat.

** In "The Sith Lord", which overlaps with the events of ''The Phantom Menace'', most of the Jedi dismiss Qui-Gon Jinn's encounter with a Sith Lord on Tatooine. Even Yaddle, who is more sympathetic to Qui-Gon and Dooku, would prefer to wait for more information before acting on Qui-Gon's warning.

* InherentInTheSystem: Dooku and Qui-Gon initially see the growing corruption in the Republic and Jedi Council as a minor problem, something that is rare and can be easily dealt with. Several decades of trying and failing to be an InternalReformist ends up convincing Dooku that the system itself is fundamentally broken and there needs to be radical changes to get the Republic back to health. Palpatine is all too happy to exploit that disillusionment to prod Dooku into more and more "moral compromises" in the name of social change until eventually Dooku is deep into Sithism and sees no way out.

* TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized: Dooku is initially a borderline TechnicalPacifist, and while he's sympathetic to the nascent Separatist movement and agrees with all their criticisms of the Republic, he is disturbed by and rejects their willingness to use violence in the name of social change. His StartOfDarkness begins in earnest when years of trying to be a peaceful InternalReformist are undermined by the Jedi Council's unwillingness to change with the times and the Republic's own corruption and Palpatine exploits his frustration to manipulate him into questionable deeds for "the greater good", causing him to slowly lose his aversion to violence and come to instead see it as a viable, even necessary, tool of societal improvement.

* AdaptationalModesty: Ahsoka's first outfit from the first two-and-a-half seasons of ''The Clone Wars'' is toned down considerably from the tube top/skirt combo. She now has a sleeveless shirt with padding along the shoulders, although still baring a bit of midriff.

** During her test with the probes, Ahsoka uses the same blocking sequence that Anakin demonstrated on a Holocron recording in "[[Recap/StarWarsRebelsS2E16ShroudOfDarkness Shroud of Darkness]]".

** Obi-Wan is shown with his ''Attack of the Clones'' mullet in "Practice Makes Perfect", which takes place during ''Star Wars: The Clone Wars'', where he sported his short haircut from ''Revenge of the Sith'' from the beginning. While it's possible that Obi-Wan temporarily grew his mullet back, this is likely how he was supposed to have looked all along in the early episodes of ''The Clone Wars'' (his original short hair was likely the result of [[NoFlowInCGI technological limitations]]).

Not to be confused with ''ComicBook/TalesOfTheJedi'', another series from the ''Legends'' continuity set during the Old Republic era, though the two share the same name and a similar logo.

* BackForTheDead: "The Sith Lord" marks [[spoiler:Yaddle's first canon appearance since ''The Phantom Menace''. She is killed by Dooku at the end, explaining why she never appeared again]].
