    It’s pretty clear Disney had no fucking clue what they were doing with Star Wars after they acquired it.

    One might argue that they still don’t have a clue.

      Statistically, it probably tracks that Rogue One, Andor, and The Acolyte are good simply because eventually something won’t suck if you put together the right combination of artists by accident.

          Yeah, I enjoyed it. Far cry from the snoozefests of Boba Fett: Sand Mayor, Obi-Whine, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead’s Ass in a Flight Suit.

                Ray Stevenson’s character was worth every second I invested on this show.

                Plus I liked the witch stuff and some of the fights were alright.

                My feeling is that often these expensive shows tend to become a blob for all in order to reduce the rating for TV14.

                I mean, is there such an audience that cares for Ahsoka as a character and is under 18?

                  I just didn’t find it compelling, and there were no real stakes.

                  In contrast, The Acolyte had a few layers and kept bringing up new questions every time one was answered, and kept us on our toes since nobody was wearing plot armor.
