    I thought the first two episodes were fine, but I wasn’t going to hang around week after week to be strung along, better to wait and watch the whole thing at once.

    That was what drove a lot of the complaints on the other shows, people watching it week by week couldn’t see the overall arc they were going for.

    My only real complaint was that it seemed to be a giant waste of Carrie-Anne Moss… but maybe she pops up again in flashbacks or something. I dunno, like I say, I’ve only seen the first two episodes so far.

    Out of the Star Wars TV shows, I can really only point to a couple of unforgivably bad things that should have been caught and fixed in production:

    1. The stupid scooter bike trash in Book of Boba Fett.

    2. The really bad Baby Leia footchases in Obi Wan. The first one was bad enough, then they decided to do it AGAIN??!?!

        I always figured it was a ham-fisted attempt to sell toys.

          No, it’s just… Uh… Whatshisname… The guy from Spy Kids.

          Once Upon A Time in Mexico was his last decent movie. Now pretty much everything I’ve seen from him has a lot in common with the Spykids sequels or Sharkboy and Lavagirl. The weirdly out of place tech scooter gang is exactly his kind of zany.

      Please don’t forget Kenobi and his magically unsupicious trenchcoat.

      … or how lightsaber stabbings now are a minor inconvenience …
