    it's not a terrible take. The more you want to know about your favs, ESPECIALLY in Star Wars, the more they screw it up.

    You wanted to know more about Darth Vader - Prequels screwed him up (before he was redeemed in the cartoons)
    You wanted to know about what happened to Luke in the sequels - Screwed him up
    You wanted to know more about Han Solo - Screwed him up in his own movie

    Star Wars has a history of screwing up their established characters. Be careful what you wish for.

    We know Boba Fett to be a ruthless Bounty Hunter - so far in the first episode, he has become a pretty fluffy guy to kids and alien dogs when he is peak ruthless bounty hunter after surviving the sarlacc pit.

    Also really nice to his own crime syndicate.

    Watch "Under the Helmet: Legacy of Boba Fett" on Disney for your answer.

    Yes, it's a terrible take, just because you don't like this particular show and how they are telling the story does not mean there was not a lot of interest in Boba Fett.

    it seems you have an issue with Disney and not the character of Boba Fet that's why I said asking who wanted to have a show about B Fett was a bad take, there was a ready-made audience just look at his book standalone book sales are.

    You seem to just have an issue with the way they are telling this story, which is your right but that does not mean there was not a reason to tell a standalone story about B Fett.

    You also said who asked for this show as if nobody was interested which like I said was a terrible take.

    I don't care if you thought the show was fine it was the question that was the issue.

    I enjoyed it. Better than than most of the feature films they’ve been releasing. Pretty confident enough people will like it enough for Disney to keep cranking out more.

    Has Boba Fat lost some weight yet?

    Rocket and flamethrower would likely not have worked well in CQC when the explosion/flame would be pushed back onto him. Not using jetpack was weird.

    This might be the worst Star Wars show ever.
