Omega is a clone. A comparatively old, early clone that wasn't subjected to age acceleration. Also she's a gurl.
Yes, apparently early in the development of the clone troopers the Kaminoans got weird and decided to try making a sex-flipped Jango. So she's a leftover lab experiment that is apparently important for reasons. But she's blond and stupid so her extra X-chromosome is probably from Maketh Tua. So she's pretty much Star War's equivalent of X-23/Laura Kinney, but without fighting skills, powers or anything that made X-23 cool...alright, she HAS gotten an energy bow and seems to have inherited Jango's shooting skills to a point, but still not nearly as awesome as X-23.
Season 1
The first season is mostly a sixteen episode escort quest with a lot of side-quests thrown in. Tarkin decides that genetically engineered super soldiers aren't unscrupulous enough to bring the Emperor's peace to the galaxy. Now out of a job, the Bad Batch bum around the outer rim doing dirty work for a granny dinosaur mob boss while protecting Omega from the Kaminoans.
The Twileks rise up and Hera Syndula begins her slide from sheltered daughter of nobility to captain mom, hero of the rebellion. The season ends with the empire telling the Kaminoans to get rekd and bringing a major location from Star Wars Legends into Disney canon (rhymes with count mantis and played a big role in the Thrawn Trilogy).
Similar to Rebels before it, not as beloved as The Clone Wars, but also better than Resistance. Your tolerance threshold for gullible tagalong kids and sidequests will probably inform how much you like this one.
