  • Ahsoka = C+. Zahn’s novel trilogy it is not. Not even close in terms of quality or narrative. Not a single ‘wow’ or ‘woah’ moment. Some ‘that’s kinda cool’ moments. It has some good lightsaber action and Ahsoka and Baylon are cool characters but the show suffers from questionable plotting and dialogue, slow pacing, underutilization of Thrawn as an antagonist and a requirement to be familiar with Rebels to understand most of it. It would have been better as a 2–3 hour movie. At least Andor S2 is yet to come. Oh and…Zombie stormtroopers? Really?!?

    • Yeah I was very…whelmed by this season. It was fine, although it felt like 95% set up for season 2 instead of a self-contained story with some dangling threads. I really didn’t like Thrawn, doesn’t feel at all like he did in the books or even in Rebels. I also don’t like any of the Dathomir stuff, I know Star Wars is space fantasy but that just feels like too much. We never even saw ‘normal’ Imperial officers, I wanted to see Thrawn on the bridge, not just hanging out on that pillar with the great mothers all the time.

      At the same time, it had some nice moments, good music, and interesting new characters (Baylan). It’s a shame we’ve probably seen the last of him on screen.
