    Nice start. Sucks to have Carrie Ann Moss offed in the first episode but liking it so far.

    Watched the first 2 episodes yesterday, nothing mind blowing but it's the most I've enjoyed one of these new series in awhile.

    I'm in. And I have a theory on where it's headed...
    Bad twin mentions a mission to kill 4 Jedi, I'm guessing the 4th one she goes after will be Yoda

    Thought the cast was excellent even if the characters are not developed yet. Especially the three Jedi. They were all interesting. Too bad they killed off two already because they got the casting right. Like the Padawan and the Potion guy a lot too. Not so interested in the wookie or the assassin twins.

    Overall, I want to see where the story goes. But I'm not on the edge of my seat. The twin thing is a little weird but they can still pay it off. We'll see. It's watchable at this point

    Looks like an Officer in WW2.

    Or Wayne Knight.

    While I like the Lack of Skywalkers and their crew
    I do still find this formulaic

    The outsider who is wronged but still the key to everything blah blah blah
    Of course this outsider is the best of the best of the best SIR!

    Their Jedi not f*cking Vulcans Sheesh!

    Wow. It really looks like $hit.

    I was an 8 year old kid when I saw the first Star Wars in theaters. It makes me tremendously sad to see how such as beloved thing has been completely destroyed.

    remind of the name of that show? we watched the first season, and now I've forgotten what it was.

    the Scots copper was in Local Hero, 40-odd years ago.

    The Thick of it.

    The spinoff movie, In the Loop, is also great.

    thanks, had heard of this show. I was thinking of Criminal Record, which is on Apple TV+.

    It's a great send-up of British politics. Same creator went on to do Veep and Death of Stalin

    What they should have done is replaced these lesbians Jedi with Will Smith and Martin Lawrence
