Ahsoka - SPOILERS

[Zardnaar]

My view as someone whose actually seen the Clone Wars series and Rebels is that we still didn't learn much about who Ashoka is now. If you don't dwell into her past now too much, tell us more who she is now, how she got there. And I feel that we got very little for the time we spend with her. Or Sabine.
I am not sure they would have needed 10-15 minutes more, or they need the cut to be a bit more efficient so they could have put 10-15 minutes more worth of story in there. Same play-time, more story, more characterization, more fun with Star Wars.

In hindsight the size of the cast nay have hindered it combined with the new 6-10 episode default these days.

When you had 20-24 episodes more time available for those filler/development episodes.

Hera didn't get much screen time for example.

Strongly disagree.

Compared to something like Slow Horses, both seasons are way better written and acted than Andor (which I think is the second worst modern live action show with Boba Fett being rock bottom). Honestly, even if you argue that Andor is the best Star Wars, that is a really low bar. Star Wars is samurai movies in space, and not the top of the stack of samurai movies.

I love the podcast The Weekly Planet. They review movies on a scale:

• Best Movie Ever
• Worst Movie Ever

Nothing to do with animation at all. I just don't watch TV all the time.

Then your time would have been less wasted by watching the animated shows.

And you, of course, knew this in advance of the show airing.

Having just watched the first episode of Loki, man you really notice the slow pacing of Ashoka. It feels like more happened in Loki in 1 episode than in 3 of this show

Andor is not samurai movies in space. Haven't seen Slow Horses, so can't comment on that comparison, but I strongly disagree that Andor is the "second worst modern live action show"; setting aside the widespread critical acclaim for Andor, and the fact that it is a lot more than an "action show," that is a laughably hyperbolic claim unless you have only watched the three shows you have mentioned. Have you seen the crap that is out there?

Boba Fett and Andor are not in the same conversation in terms of quality. Boba Fett is terrible. Ahsoka is mediocre, with the caveat that if you are a huge fan of the Star Wars animated properties it is probably much better. Andor is excellent.

But if Slow Horses is that good, I will check it out! Edit: I checked out the reviews - looks great. Almost as well reviewed as Andor! Looking forward to it...somewhat guardedly. It gets compared to LeCarre a lot, which is not my favourite.

Use the World between Worlds to travel back in time.

Correct, it's the 1st worst. Book of Boba Fett is way better. Indeed, I would argue that BoBF was better than Ahsoka. At least stuff happens in it. Even Ahsoka gets more to do in BoBF.

Disney really ought to give us ENWorlders a chance to review their Star Wars and MCU show scripts so we can suggest improvements.

Please, no.
