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.

Filoni really tricked KK into a big ass budget for the 5th season of Rebels. I really loved it but there was definitely some slow paced scenes. I also think there should be a bit more exposition for new viewers on who these people are. I of course knew but my wife was a bit confused and lost interest for the characters she’s never heard of but was supposed to care about.

I also understand Ahsoka being a lot more quiet than her Clone Wars self but I really hope some of that personality comes out as the show continues

That’s the problem here, there aren’t any stakes to the story if you don’t know the context. I saw people compare the temple scene to Raiders, but unlike Raiders there was no suspense to the scene. She just moved some furniture around until the robots showed up.

I think Ahsoka having put up walls at this older age is gonna be a theme and arc for her character this show/season.

I knew the characters and tbh was more intrigued by all the new stuff. It felt like it was playing catch-up for people who didn't see the end of Rebels with all the Sabine and Lothal stuff.
