They picked the perfect actor for the regional supervisor.

Good setup episodes.  Dialogue was a little slow at points, but it’s a little more in depth story concept for a live action Star Wars series/movie.  I liked them.

Maul got legit cut in half and survived.

I'm looking forward to what's coming, solid start. I hate that there's only 8 episodes to it.

Good so far, bit of a slow burn. I can imagine folks who haven’t seen Rebels might be a little lost right now.

If you were paying attention to the visuals and dialogue in episode 1, there was a ton of fan service for Rebels fans.

I’m glad that David Tennant is reprising his role as Huyang.

Honestly, I thought that was pretty obvious in her appearance in Mando S2.

That’s the Ghost’s shuttle and I’m sure Ghost appeared in one of the previews.

Oh yeah, E-Wing sexiest fighter other than the Fang!

Just got done watching both. Female heavy cast and yet doesn’t feel cringey like so many of Disney’s past SW female characters. This one’s gonna be one of the good ones me thinks.

Rosario Dawson is so bad at being Ahsoka. She's wooden as fuck and has none of the warmth and charm Ahsoka has. And it's like she reading all her lines

Sigh, that was the one thing I noticed. But that charm and warmth you speak of was during the clone wars. Once she left the order, her subsequent appearances carried a heaviness of the past and present. I hope there’s a reasoning behind her held back demeanor other than shitty acting. Would be a huge L for this series if the title character ends up being forgetful.

ETA: similar reaction to her in The Mandalorian. Good discussion about it here:

The part in your spoiler was revealed after Mandalorion Season 2 episode she was in.  I think in the credits or her character description on the Disney website.

The script on Sabine’s speeder bike helmet reads “BABE.”

I agree.

Very good start I think. I enjoyed it.

I didn’t think I would like the actress playing Hera. Even though she doesn’t look like Hera I can pretend it’s her well enough haha.

The evil little blonde is cool. I know she’s doomed to die. But I like her demeanor. She does crazy well.

Baylan is going to have an interesting story to tell if they allow it.

Sabine “you can never have enough explosives” Wren. Sabine is one of my most favorite characters in all of Star Wars. So far they have not disappointed. I hope she doesn’t stop blowing shit up. She can have a lightsaber and still blow shit up…

Ashoka. I know rosario catches both heat and praise. I think she is the best person for the job. No one else would have the appearance so that give her a huge edge. I think she has trouble with the physical parts of the acting. Like maybe she is not athletic in real life or something? I don’t know. She looks clunky in her fight scenes to me for some reason.

As to her demeanor or whatever. They want her to be like the “wise old Jedi” which she would be. They still took away the Ashoka spunkiness. She would still have that even if she was battle hardened and messed up over her friend turning evil. She doesn’t always have to be so serious.

I don’t really have any complaints so far. But we are only in 2 episodes in.

That's the Phantom, it's part of the Ghost. In Rebels they used the Phantom for a lot of stuff. The Ghost was primarily their mobile home.

I haven't been a fan of Dawson's Ahsoka since she was introduced in The Mandalorian. I'm not really a fan of hers in anything she does.

I had a difficult time staying engaged with most of the 1st episode. Episode 2 was better for me but neither episode had me glued in and giddy like previous Star Wars shows/movies. Maybe I'm just getting old and burnt out of all TV shows.

I'll agree with this. I think this is why I couldn't get into episode 1. She had me bored and not caring at all about her or the mission/episode.

A middle-aged Puerto Rican that's at least 25 lbs heavier than the character is better?
