Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

I think this series is setting things up to be about Reva's redemption arc at least as much as if not more so than it is about Obi-Wan gradually regaining his lost faith, and I think it will be just as sudden as Vader's redemption in RotJ, which is why there has been so little development of her character so far.

In the next three episodes, I think we're going to see Reva capture Leia and learn she is force sensitive, possibly even guessing her connection to Anakin, and try to bring Leia to Vader to be turned, luring Obi-Wan at the same time.

I think Vader won't reappear until the final episode at which point he will be betrayed by Reva who will sacrifice herself to save Leia and Obi-Wan. I have no idea how they're going to pull this off except that perhaps she has formed a bond with Leia at this point. We've already seen that she has no problem killing her boss, but this time it will be because of the good in her, prefiguring Vader's later betrayal of Palpatine.

I could live with this plot.
 

OK, so Ewan says that this series that's playing right now was made as a one-off and achieves what he wanted to achieve in terms of bringing his Obi-Wan closer to Alec's Obi-Wan. So while I'd love to see a season 2 with more Ewan, what would it be about? It would have to not involve Vader, I think.

Developing a friendship with Luke, in contrast to the way that this was about Leia. Encountering Jabba the Hutt. Setting up events that play out decades later in The Mandalorian or Book of Boba Fett.
 


They seemed to not know each other when they met in 4 right?
No, Luke clearly recognizes his face when he awakens and calls him "Ben". They might not have know each other well, but when Artoo claims to be the property of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Luke immediately brings up "old Ben Kenobi".

Yeah you're right:



Obi wan scares off the Sand People with a Mind Trick, and then uses Vital Transfer on Luke to heal him back up from Zero HP.

Luke seems to recognize him as 'Ben' when he wakes up, and Obi Wan calls him 'Luke' without asking his name in return.

Or, it could simply be Kenobi sort of wandering around, Kane style, solving problems. So long as they keep the plots mostly self contained and not major (as in big, setting spanning stuff) the series could really be about anything it wants to be. People were asking for some Star Wars that isn't all about the main series - well, here's a good way to do it.
