Star Wars BEWARE SPOILER ALERTS NOW AHEAD

It was Anakin.
Thankfully they didn't give Christensen too many lines

interesting take on this sentiment..

Yup. And an infinity better that the lame attempt at “making a thinking man’s Star Wars” Andor, which promised so much and was just boring AF.

Last night’s episode was rad, though I thought the pacing in some areas could’ve been picked up just a bit.

How good was the live action Siege of Mandalore, Capt. Rex, Ahsoka’sTroopers and the early Clone Wars battle!!!!

Nice! What an entry point!

I’d recommend watching The Clone Wars but in this story order

Then Rebels, but I understand it’s a BIIIIIIG commitment.

Hahaha something tells me that guy would only be happy watching the old VHS versions of the OT in his mummy’s basement.

How good were the faces of the Death Troopers under their masks? Nice way to bring them out at for the end of the episode too. Woot.

Wonder if they’ll revisit and recast Baylan? Ray was great in the role.

I watched the two-episode premier last night. I was surprised that C-AM got it so early on, they really used her face to sell the show, and then BAM! gone... annoying, I like her....

I found it interesting enough to keep me watching, but the thing with The High Republic Era stories that Disney is pushing, is that as it's not the OT timeframe and chars (obviously), they have to build interest up from scratch using only the lore of The Force and the Jedi as the basis, which to be honest, will be a tough sell.

THR comics which I've read didn't grab me as the chars are new and will not have that OT char grab-factor. I doubt that any stories and chars outside of the OT and to a lesser degree PT and CW will EVER have the same pull factor, but that's to be expected.

I'll still watch it all, including what will be another Bob-awful season two of AndBore, because Pew Pew!

I gave eps 1 and 2 a collective total of 6.5 to 7/10.
