The series, which stars the voices of actors like Dee Bradley Baker, follows the Clone Force 99 (also known as the Bad Batch), a group of elite clone troopers with genetic mutations that were first introduced in The Clone Wars. The Bad Batch follows the Clone Force 99 as they take on mercenary missions in the after math of the Clone Wars. “It becomes a suddenly much more rule-based power structure of the galaxy,” Baker told Fansided of the series. “They’re very much a team, but they’re not…like the clones are, where it’s more of a top-down command structure. And it’s very interesting to place them in the middle of this transformational moment and to see how that plays out.”
The Bad Batch is one of several Star Wars shows released on Disney Plus after the premiere of The Mandalorian during the streaming service’s launch. So where can fans stream The Bad Batch? Read on for how to watch The Bad Batch season 2 online for free to see the fan-favorite Star Sars spinoff.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly in 2021, Baker explained how he makes the voice of each Bad Batch member different. “The thrill of working on this show kind of comes down to a two-fold thrill. The thrill number one is being a kid who loved Star Wars,” he said. “‘I’ve got my picture of me as a Jawa in 1977 in my Jawa costume.’ So to be a part of this universe is a thrill personally to the little kid in me. And secondly, just as an actor, as a voice artist, to get thrown a kind of a project like this, where the challenge is to jump between all of these different characters in the case of the Clones, who have subtle gradations between how they’re characterized, to the Bad Batch being more pronounced differentiation between these guys.”
He continued, “And then carrying whole scenes, whole episodes. Now a whole series. I mean, it’s a kind of an artistic challenge and an artistic stretch that is gratifying, and thrilling. And I don’t think that I’ll ever see anything like this. It’s not something that a voice actor gets thrown. It’s a very unusual challenge to be thrown into it. And that’s the fun of it. That’s the twofold gratification for me of doing this is it’s both. It’s fun for the little kid in me, and it’s a great workout blast for the voice actor in me as well. Like no other project.”
He also told Entertainment Weekly about how he distinguishes the personalities of each Bad Batch member and how his performance reflects those characteristics. “Well, Hunter, it’s closer to your basic Clone voice, but there’s also a carefulness to how he talks. And it’s also got a covered sound to it like that. And then Tech is very precise. And everything is easy breezy for Tech. Nothing is a big deal and it’s all just sort of water off a duck’s back, so to speak. If ducks existed in the Star Wars universe,” he said. “And Wrecker, Wrecker’s just like a big kid. He’s honest, he’s immediate, unfiltered. And he’s great fun because of it. He makes me laugh. I love Wrecker. And Crosshair, Crosshair is like a coiled snake. He’s like waiting with his shooting device to pick things off one by one. And it might be you if you get in his way or he doesn’t like you.”
He continued, “And then Echo. Echo’s closer to the regular Clone voice, but there’s a grumpiness to him because he’s also not part of this odd group. He used to be a reg, but now he’s half-human, half-machine. And he’s trying to find his way in with all this group. And so he’s a little bit at odds with that. With the weird decisions, they often come up with. So that’s kind of my nickel version of what differentiates these Bad Batch guys.”
