Just terrible writing, and show creators ignorant of the vast and myriad lore that already existed and told much larger, deeper stories.
Disney is creatively vacant. How many times can they repeat the same themes: hero has to protect young precious child (mandalorian, obi wan), or hero stares into fire remembering all their past trauma (mando, acolyte).
I tried...I really did. When the protagonist survived a crash...from outer space, through atmosphere, into a mountain...survived without a scratch by simply buckling in, I knew we weren't dealing with writers who were taking this seriously.
By the second episode I fell asleep, and I've had pretty gnarly insomnia since I was 19!
So thanks I guess, disney, for a cure that finally works for those of us afflicted night owls!
