But for whatever reason the suits at Disney keep trying to take 1.5/2 hours of movie-worthy content and stretch it out into an 8 episode series. But the first three episodes have been underwhelming for sure. I watched the entire series and enjoyed it. One thing that bugged me in the beginning was it was described as a murder mystery prior to its release, as well as primarily from the Sith’s point of view. I definitely do not feel either was the case. But there was some great stuff in the series, and they did a great job ending it in a way that leaves you wanting a second season, IMO.

My gripes about them stretching movie worthy content into a drip released TV series remains, but I wholly agree. Watched every week it is underwhelming. But very binge worthy and overall enjoyable and in no way deserving of the review bombing it received. Some of the best choreographed fights and one of the most compelling characters in Sol. Writing was a little clunky, but people seem to forget that Star Wars has always had clunky writing.

Yeah, if you take out the into and credits, you could easily fit it all into a part one and part two movie.

Disclaimer: House of the Dragon season 2 stinks.
Trying my first go ‘round with Better Call Saul and it has me hooked. On season 3. Also watched Charlie Hustle & The Matter of Pete Rose doc on HBO Max in one day, it’s worth a watch. Especially for the Cincinnatians.

Not sure how accurate that info was.

Honestly, I thought the finale would have been a decent enough episode 8 of a 10-episode season, but as a finale it was an abomination.
