I thought it was intriguing, and slower than I anticipated until the very end. Seems like a middle ground in tone/pacing to the other Mando-verse shows and Andor. I didn't see a post here so I figured, why not?

I'll be back tomorrow after I sleep to chat more.

I just can’t get excited for this. I just feel like it’s been Star Wars overload, and it’s crazy to think of feel that way: I had every damn book that came out as a kid and couldn’t get enough Star Wars. But the rapid acceleration over the past decade with something new coming on TV or in the theater multiple times per YEAR has just burned me out.

Marvel did the same thing. I just can’t care about anything post Infinity War.

I’m not feeling it, but I understand. If it makes you feel any better, it looks like it’s slowing to 2 seasons (of 8-10 episodes) and 1 movie per year. The movies also don’t start until 2026.

Did you watch Rebels? For me, I like secondary worlds and I would rather spend more time in a few of them rather than less time in a lot of them, so I don't think I'll tire of SW in the way I've also burned out on the MCU.

No, I only watched like two episodes and it seemed too “young” for me at the time, and then my kids never got into it.

Season 2 starts weaving in Clone Wars plots, and the last episodes of the series are really good.
