Good stories? The entire clone war movie was about how they need to find Jabba the hutts son or something like that. Miss me with that stuff
That was one movie when the entire series is basically quarter-movie episodes and there are a lot better episodes of it than that.
Don't be so quick to judge the entire animated series as bad just because of one lackluster movie-format episode.
There is a lot to Clone Wars and Rebels that adds some really rich lore and events to the Star Wars series. There's new and interesting characters like Captain Rex and Ahsoka, and we also are given a lot more background and personality on the characters from the movies.
For exampleDarth Maul was little more than a "spoopy villain of the week" type character in Phantom Menace and thus really wasn't very interesting, merely serving as a plot device. He was what professional writers call a flat character, which is synonymous for "boring", because they are characters who don't change. Clone Wars does his character justice by turning him into a very dynamic character with a lot of background and personality. We see in great detail what happens to him after his apparent death at the end of Phantom Menace. Yes, spoilers, in case you didn't actually watch Clone Wars (and I'm assuming you only saw the pilot movie), Darth Maul did survive being bisected in Star Wars Episode 1.
