Exactly what I expected from modern Disney SW.

It's a shame they are doing this to every good property.

Trek is ruined, SW is ruined. Every good IP gets bought and milked by people who don't understand it until it's a husk to be discarded.

First couple episodes werent good imo but I thought it got substantially better as it went on. It reallly wasnt a show that needed to be made tbh. But I enjoyed it on the whole.

I thought it was great, personally.

It maybe would have benefited from being trimmed into a movie rather than being a miniseries, but it's still just behind Mando Season 2 in the live action show ranking for me.

It would definitely have made for a very good movie imo. Because episode 4-6 are rather terrific. Nothing is perfect, but those eps are great SW.

It's enjoyable for the Vader stuff and the nostalgia. The show has a lot of problems, but it's definitely worth watching.

I'm 3 episodes in and I think I've explicitly called 5 lines verbatim as well as pretty much every plot point.

Also antagonist lady's acting is some of the worst I've seen on tv in a while.

Wow you predicted how a prequel series will go? That's crazy. Star Wars is usually incredibly unpredictable.

There are a few moments I went "woah" at because I didn't think Disney had the fuckin' balls (Most of the Vader scenes). But overall, the series is lackluster and the ending can go fuck itself. Outside the Vader/Kenobi fight (which wasn't what I would call anything near the best it could have been), the rest of the episode is a fuckin' joke.

I'd say 5.5/10.

I thought the show was actually pretty darn good. Not as consistently good as either season of Mando, but the last episode probably has some of the best content to come out of Disney Star Wars.

The last two episodes I'd say have the best saber/force scenes in all of (movie/TV) Star Wars.

If Disney has done nothing else right, they've done a great job at depicting Vader as an unstoppable monster

Producers understand money, "name value," and authority. Most of them don't know what actually makes a good story or what forming an emotional connection is. They think that intellectual properties are sold like tupperware.

Tbf, Obi-Wan is full of a lot of really dumb moments, cringy dialogue and bad writing, but I think it really pulled things together in its last two episodes.

Overall it is my favorite. Primarily because I found too many episodes of the Mandalorian and Boba Fett rather dull. I can overlook some weird editing and story decisions if I'm being entertained and it's resonating in the way it is supposed to be.

Just got finished watching the last episode. An easy 4.5/10

Overall: 3.25/10

Way too many mistakes in the writing, editing, and plot.

It could have been a lot better tbh. Picard definitely also suffered from bad writing and really dumb decisions as well. Though I've heard Strange New Worlds is pretty good.

Yeah, it was a six-episode limited series. Possibly a season 2, but there are no solid plans as of yet.

Also a dope duel between Obi-Wan and Vader where Obi-Wan cracks Vader's helmet and you can see Hayden's burnt up face inside. And you can hear both his and James Earl Jones' voice simultaneously
