This has to be the best Star Wars show since Andor S1.

I thought I was a tough critic?
Last 10 minutes where a bit fluffy…but at least they dressed it up a little? I’ll take it…
None of the other established franchises have wasted a lot of time on “fuel”…they got it right…more references to it are wrong.
But we all know that. They just wrote an absolutely sh?!$tty movie when they couldn’t afford it and all but sunk their studio. KK and her misguided man boy. Let’s just accept it and move on. They failed…let’s not try to revisit it like it’s not garbage, please?
I noticed that right away
And least they didn’t have any sucked out of a window or teleporting holograms

Well they seem to be assuming multiple seasons…and doesn’t appear to be set in stone they’ll get it

I’d say overall it’s the best balanced show?
But a couple of the shows were rough. I think obi wan could have been the best without the kiddie angles

The clone wars scenes were fantastic. The visuals were great, the dialogue was good and it had a lot of emotion. I'd say overall this was my favorite episode so far. I'll agree that the last 10ish minutes dragged a bit but overall it was solid.
This is my only head scratcher of the series so far. It's definitely a problem for a lot of D+ shows. I'm guessing by the way this episode ended, if we see Thrawn next episode, it will be limited. And that gives us only two episodes to really dig into the character. At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Thrawn ends up being more of a season 2 storyline and the main confrontation is with Baylon. And as of now, I wouldn't mind that as Thrawn deserves a much larger focus than what they'll be able to give him with the time remaining.

I think filoni is doing a really good job of fleshing out some of things they couldn’t do in the prequels
…doesn’t feel rushed…which is important
One exchange in this episode I thought was really well done. But overall I think filoni is doing a good retcon of the abuse of the force that was allowed prior

Absolutely stunning visually. I wish it was on a theater in Houston, because I bet it looked amazing.
Also, I think this is the first time they showed Ahsoka's face where it meets her tendrils without the leather strip, and I thought it looked very well done. She and Hera both always have some type of barrier, which has always made it look more costumey than natural. This looked great.

Hasn’t the only other show since Andor been Mandalorian season 3?

I’m worried about this…there’s a decent chance they cancel it. They can’t make it cost effectively and the strike goes on…
The real problem is Baylon died…so that could be a plot landmine/disaster

That is one of the best “charges” in recent movie history.
Star Wars would benefit from a good charge or two. Charges stick with you…they’re iconic. LOTR had two fantastic ones…
Or this…which was thought to be a direct ripoff of ANH at the time:
That being said…the purgills have been pretty freaking cool

My thought is that they are setting up to introduce Thrawn and having him take center stage in the Filoni movie.

That is highly possible and a decent way to reinvent a currently defunct movie studio
Yes.... I had one too many beverages when I posted that.
Just loving Ahsoka, what I meant was that it's probably my favorite show so far, with Andor being #2.

…is there such thing as “too many beverages”
As long as you’re not driving a tractor
Another big takeaway from this episode is that the New Republic is truly horrible

I'm not opposed to that at all. Honestly I thought that was going to be how lucasfilm handled star wars in the first place. Tell a main story then branch off into other related stories. Similar to how the mcu went with the Skywalker films being the avengers type film.

They definitely are trying to make it be inept, both illustrating why the First Order was able to develop but also to decrease any sympathy for when Starkiller was able to wipe out the government.
