Ray Stevenson/Baylan Skoll acting and story made the show with Ivana Sakhno/Shin Hati imo. They had such an interesting story and great acting I watched it just for them. The force that was calling to Baylan, great plot and cliffhanger. Wish we could have had more of him :(
This time make it good
I mean, obviously not. They already established the characters and also the actor that played the only decently acted villain (blanking on his name…) died.
Ray Stevenson played Baylan Skoll. He will be sorely missed. It was one of the best new Star Wars characters we’ve gotten in a long time. I would’ve loved for his character to be continued but who knows if another actor will do him justice. Ian McShane would probably be awesome but he’s pretty busy.
Ian Mcshane is also like 20 years Rays senior. I love him but I’m not sure that’s the best recasting choice.
Was this the one everyone thought was boring? Or was it The Acolyte? Or the most recent season of The Mandalorian?
I do like me some Star Wars, but it’s feeling like we’re being oversaturating us with shows.
Just watch Andor.
oversaturating
8 episodes every six months is oversaturation?
- Skeleton Crew, December 2024
- The Acolyte, June 2024
- Ahsoka, August 2023
- The Mandalorian Season 3, March 2023
Oh no regularly releasing shows on a consistent schedule it’s terrible
The fact that there is a constant stream of star wars content is oversaturation in itself.
TV shows traditionally run from fall to spring with a short break for the holidays. They used to be 23 episodes. That’s a third more content in total and running over at least twice as much time. I don’t recall anyone thinking the regular TV schedule was oversaturating.
Regular TV schedule is fine if there is some sort of prolonged break afterwards.
My point is that while star wars content is generally enjoyable, less is definitely more and if they would instead produce an occasional movie or season, released every year or two, people would get a lot less fatigued. And it would give the time needed to produce actually compelling content instead of deeply mediocre b and c plots with a star wars coating.
But thats no good as a subscription selling point I suppose.
