    As far as who the sith lord is. I don't think it could be the assistant because the sith lord required her to use no weapons in the assassination, and the assistant handed her the poison for kill #2. So that wouldn't add up. Of course, nothing in the show adds up. Like how did Ohsa just suddenly switch sides after being so dead on serious as to kill two jedi. So it's not logical. But using logic, I have eliminated him as the Sith. The other Jedi lit up at his appearance. So extremely unlikely to be any of them. That doesn't leave too many already introduced options.

    I had little interest in this show from the trailers but the fact that the toxic bro’s are this invested in this being a disaster makes me want to binge it now.

    lol. Im sure it’s awful by all measures but as a reminder the first Star Wars movie had a droid prop that was literally a trash can.

    Also the hero of the film makes out with his sister.

    Star Wars has always been bad and definitely “woke”. I mean the good guys were literally inspired by the Vietcong. Can you imagine the next Star Wars director coming out and saying the heroes are inspired by the “Free Palestine” fighters??

    But it’s fun and it’s made mostly for kids. It’s not made for 40 year old MTGOW’s like Ben Shapiro or UFC bros.

    You like it or you don't, who cares?, you don't or shouldn't need toktiks or youtoobes to tell you what you think about things.

    Unfortunately there's a whole bunch of fuking morons out here doing what morons do.

    I watch Star Wars with my 10 year old son. We have consumed every minute of content, from the three trilogies, the two spinoff films, and all of the animated and live action content that is currently available on Disney since he was about 5 or 6 years old. It has been a great joy bonding over Star Wars. We watch all of the recap videos on Screencrush, New Rockstars, and we listen to podcasts, specifically The Resistance and Children of the Watch. We’re invested.

    This series isn’t terrible and Disney hasn’t ruined anything. It’s got some clunky moments with subpar acting and dialogue and pacing, but honestly my 10 year old doesn’t know the difference. He doesn’t notice a coven of witches and ask “why are there space lesbians?” or notice that show features minorities or more women or whatever people are moaning about on toxic Youtube pages or message boards..

    you shouldn’t let hating on Star Wars become your entire personality. If you don’t like something, don’t watch it.

    anyways. There’s one strong theory that Carrie Ann Moss is the secret Sith behind the scenes besides the bumbling apothecary guy Qimir who always carries a gym bag with him everywhere he goes.

    the Jedi are definitely hiding something, and they are setting up the erosion of trust and decline of their status in the galaxy which will allow the Sith to rise to power within the next hundred years.

    And bringing in the cone head Jedi Ki-Adi Mundi was intentional based on his comment in Phantom Menace not seeing a Sith in millennia. There is going to be a coverup of the events that take place during this series.

    A lot of problems. The characters' flip flopping again, the inability of the Sith Lord to handle the tree moths and the padawan while easily dismissing several Jedi all at once, Osha sneaking up on him to apply a flashlight seems implausible, and I still don't understand Mae's or the Sith motivation

    Like the portrayal of the Sith Lord by the actor. So ok with him being the Sith. I don't like the character's motivation or actions. Things don't make sense...

    Yeah, I'm in the same boat. The biggest issue with the series so far is just bad writing and some shoddy performances. I guess on the positive side if you disliked some of the side characters, well that's not a problem anymore.....

    I think he is the apprentice, not the Master. And he is looking for his own Acolyte and to become the Master.

    Always two, there are.

    Agree on the flip flopping.
