Dear Filoni, Steve Blum isn't the only male voice actor in the world.
Star Wars Rebels Season Two (spoilers)

- Start date
He should bring back James Arnold Taylor. That guy can do at least six or seven different characters, without anyone suspecting they're all the same guy.
I think they're keeping him on stand-by. I'm curious to see if he does Ben any different than Obi.
He'd probably just downplay it a bit.
huh, its almost like the Empire wanted the Rebels to get to the forest moon.
Now what possible reason would the Empire have for letting the Rebels get close to their new Death Star?
Oh, wait...

If Ahsoka is off finding answers or getting answers or whatever, the number one person she'd need to track down for closure on that topic is Obi Wan. Of course, we all know that ain't possible. But if she does bring it up to Bail Organa - what's he gonna say, given the circumstances?
I really hope these upcoming episodes explain what she's been up to. If we see Ahsoka vs. Vader, that is Christmas for me.
Also: if there was ever to be any kind of synergy crossing over The Force Awakens and Star Wars Rebels - now would be the time. We are three weeks from the film premiere.

Yep, it definitely looks like it, from re-watching one of the Rebels season 2 trailers.
I liked the episode, and found the semi-competent imperial admiral or whatever an interesting characterization. It was fun to see how he calmly handled the situations presented to him even as they fell apart around him as well as his failed attempts to save face.
I wonder about the force pull and shoot maneuver, I always thought using the Force directly in combat like that was more of a dark side thing.

"Rebels" has been renewed for season 3
Yay!!!
Great news. The second season has been a whole lot better than the first I think, so I'm really glad to hear it will continue.
Although I do agree with some who've said we need to see a bit more focus on the creation of the Rebellion itself soon, instead of watching the crew just go on random supply missions here and there on the periphery.

Sort of playing out like a roleplaying game group. First season is the starter campaign to get the players (characters) introduced to the setting and provide them motivation to continue by the end. Second season is to give them a larger focus and some serious challenges as well as better allies. A third season would be putting them in the role of moving the story forward rather than having the story thrown at them as something to overcome.
So it is likely the Ghost crew and whatever remains of Phoenix cell will need to either operate with more Organa base cells or they will need to start making overtures to other Rebel groups across the galaxy. Who's idea with will be is the question. Probably Erza's idea based on his parents, or perhaps something from Ashoka. I would imagine most of the larger Phoenix group would be destroyed by the start of the third season. They are already dropping like flies under Imperial firepower.
The Alderaan backed groups will eventually need to meet the Corellian and Chandrila backed groups, as well as perhaps a Mon Cala backed group in the formation of the Alliance. As they stand now, they have a few Blockade Runners (Corellian Corvettes), some freighters, a half dozen A-wings, and maybe a B-wing. Plus three Jedi padawans. They will need more ships to complete some missions. Or larger ships, like a Nebulon-B frigate perhaps (still not seen one of those in this series). Though that might be part of the Dodonna run group. Though we don't know if that group is in operation yet, nor who backed that group with its X-wings and Y-wings. Only that Leia Organa knew of it and it was the Rebels main base by the time of the Battle of Yavin. One imagines that the base on Dantooine and later Yavin might be a result of the Ghost crew's work in season three or later, if they continue to lead up to Rogue One and A New Hope. While the Ghost crew cannot have done everything, the writers might at least put in that they at least paved the way for the other groups, or acknowledge the other groups at some point in the way to the formation of the Rebel Alliance, and if they continue, to the Rogue One when the Death Star comes in to play.

Yeah I wouldn't want to see the Ghost crew playing a major role in every decision that was made (like in the ridiculous way the ENT crew played a major role in every technological advance made in the Trek universe), but it would be nice to at least see them hanging out in the vicinity, so that we could see some of those major decisions ourselves.
It is also possible they will encounter some of the more violent rebel groups. The ones that would probably not normally be associate with what we know as the Rebel Alliance. The ones doing it just to get back at the Empire, or to carve out their own territory free of the Empire, but only for themselves, not the greater whole.
It is also possible they might need to work with some old Seperatist holdouts or the like. Though those groups wouldn't be for the Republic either, they certainly would have been hounded by the Empire.
It is still about four years before Yavin at this point in the show. Most sources have the Rebel Alliance formally created about two years before Yavin, so we have about two years of buildup potential in this series, with who knows what possible tie-ins they could work in based on the old EU stories that many of the writers know or even wrote.
While I doubt they will pull Starkiller into this, they could throw us off with using Ashoka instead, as she was the learner of Skywalker. Or have Erza fall to the Dark Side only to come back as their Starkiller proxy to found the Alliance. Depends just how far Lucasfilm and Disney want to go with one of their more popular cartoon series.
They also have the option of putting in Leia at some point. She is one of their top leaders by Yavin and an Imperial Senator. She's also only a few days younger than Ezra. Though I do wonder if any of the Jedi will sense anything of Leia's Force potential, or if she's been trained (without knowing why) to mask her potential, so that the likes of Darth Vader wouldn't sense her in the Force.

No Han, please -- not on this show. Han should not have any connection to the Rebel Alliance prior to ANH. It would be too contrived a coincidence. Bringing Lando in is pushing it enough as it is.
But I definitely do want to see Leia's formative years. When we first meet her in ANH, she's already a Rebel leader and a senator at 19. That's quite an accomplishment, and I'd like to see the backstory there.
I agree, I think the development of Leia is perfect for this show. Since she would be around the same age. I always go back to scene between her and Vader, that hints at them having multiple run ins.
Princess Leia Organa: Darth Vader. Only you could be so bold. The Imperial Senate will not sit still for this. When they hear you've attacked a diplomatic...
Darth Vader: Don't act so surprised, Your Highness. You weren't on any mercy mission this time. Several transmissions were beamed to this ship by rebel spies. I want to know what happened to the plans they sent you.
Princess Leia Organa: I don't know what you're talking about. I am a member of the Imperial Senate on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan...
Darth Vader: You are part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor! Take her away!
That one line to me indicates at least one other run in with Vader, but with how she talks to him and Tarkin, I believe she has been a thorn in their side for a while.
^Yes, clearly they've suspected Leia of being part of the Rebellion for some time, but weren't able to prove it, probably because she concealed her activities as diplomatic or relief missions.
