I didn’t watch past ep 1 on o-count of how shitty it was, but I’m enjoying reading others’ takes on how bad it is.
There will not be good Star Wars stories from Disney because it lacks the financial incentive to create them.

So in e4 of obi wan, he's hiding on the base and makes a slight sound and two storm troopers hear it. They immediately pull out their guns. This is a super secret base underwater and instead of thinking it's another trooper or any other possibility, they jump straight to "it must be someone that's not supposed to be in this base"

Also, no one notices the bearded officer in a cloak and super wide hips? But everyone is constantly questioning an actual imperial officer in a legit uniform? That part was so ridiculous I was cracking up.

I hate to say this but the show sucks
After watching ST4 and The Boys new season I just don’t know how you can continue to fuck up this hard. I do genuinely feel bad for Ewan and Hayden

It's the most insulting and lazy writing I think I've ever seen. How does this have a critics score of 86% on RT?
I wish they would of let them film Hossein Amini's screenplay. He wanted to do less fan service shit and push Obi's story not more Skywalker BS.

The showrunner and writer wasn't even aware that Obi-Wan already knew that Anakin had taken the title of Darth Vader. Dude couldn't even be bothered to watch the fucking movie that this show continues off of and take notes. The leadership at Lucasfilm has not been consistent with their vision at all. Straight up rips the movies out of the hands of directors while they're still working on them, but then lets shit like this show and Book of Boba Fett happen without seeing any issues. Expectations are in the dirt for Mando season 3 after they chose to service every other thing but the story with shoving Grogu back in so quickly.

I really like The Mandalorian. Honestly ALOT.
But between Boba Feet and Obi Wan, I'm so nihilistic towards this franchise now. But then again, Episodes 1, 2, 3 and absolute trash too. So I don't know what the fuck I ever expected.

I'm blackpilled now. It fucking sucks. If you had told me as a kid that there would be Boba Fett and Obi-Wan shows someday, I would be in disbelief. Maybe it's just time to move on until Kennedy is replaced, but that's only part of the equation as Disney is ultimately the larger problem.

A New Hope and Empire were the only really good Star Wars media (not counting animated stuff).
Rogue One comes very close and 3/4 of Mandalorian was as well. Also maybe the first 20 mins of Phantom Menace. Return gets a pass just for being part of the originals and having Bib Fortuna. There is no universe where Disney makes good additions that aren't the equivalent of Cool Whip frosting.

Today’s episode was actually good. I really enjoyed it as a whole which I def can’t say for the previous 4 eps. I let out an audible “Oh shit!” when Vader force pulls the transport ship out of the fucking air then rips the doors off!

It's like a trophy room. Why they needed to showcase that they captured/killed a child is bizarre. Like, that kid was special compared to the hundred others that were butchered?
Episode had a few cool moments. The shaky camera was an absolutely terrible decision.

Why would the youngling still be wearing the training helmet when the inquisitors became a thing?

The real answer is they didn't really think about it too much. The Grand Inquisitor was pretty much in action right after the events of III if I remember correctly from the Vader comic. The whole scene is just goofy and doesn't evoke anything that they were going for.
