After the first two episodes I'm excited to see where it goes. It's great to have a fresh new story with no strings attached. I'm loving the idea about the sith being reawakened after a millenia. It looks and feels a lot like star wars.
A lot of the 1 star reviews are complaining about wokeness, pronouns, DEI, and how star wars is strictly for white males. Wow! I'm a middle aged white male and I didn't even notice how diverse the show is until I read these reviews.
The show has a black female lead who plays two roles well on both sides. In describing their backstory it is mentioned that they have mothers. It boggles my mind that people are bothered so much by this that they believe the franchise is dead and not worth ever making new content.
If you're one of those types of people then don't bother, and get bent.
If you're not a hateful bigoted prick, there's a good chance you'll enjoy the show. It's very Star Wars!
