Destroy Every Star Wars show and movie since 1996 and just start with this show after Return of the Jedi.
I don't know what the last 7 movies were... but they are horrible and left the entire Franchise with this dollar store vibe to the brand.
It was like you gave marketers a hit list of the favorite things people liked about Star Wars and let them create 7 smut films.
THIS SHOW though, IS GOOOD. Like on every level so far it has kept alive the vibe of the originals. The swipes, the inter personal stories, the lack of need to show absolutely every inch with CGI of what will end up being a toy for Christmas. There is Mystery... I keep on feeling like they really did as little CGI at times as possible. Some of the aliens look identical to the old masks they made for the originals.
