    Still can’t believe Grevious didn’t kill any Jedi in the Star Wars the Clone Wars - apart from a cheap kill on Nahdar - such wasted potential for an overarching antagonist as cool as him

    It was like picking the most boring and pointless points in her life and make a show around them. Besides the destruction of the nightsisters we saw nothing of substance or that explains or connects anything.
    Why not show Bailan and how they met? Why not show a vision from the Nightsisters of Peredia? Why not do anything that gives a real and meaningful insights that build up to Ahsoka? This was such a waste.

    For the inaugural "Tales of the Empire," I would have rather seen many other characters in a 6-episode 2-character 15-20 minute animation series than Morgan Elsbeth and Barriss Offee. I would have rather seen Palpatine, Plagueis, Darth Maul, Tarkin, Orson Krennic, Captain Phasma, Moff Gideon, Grand Admiral Thrawn, Admiral Daala, Aurra Sing, Admiral Motti, General Tagge, Dedra Meero, Kino Loy, Major Partagaz, Lieutenant Gorn, Chief Ugnaught, General Veers, Captain Needa, Admiral Piett, Admiral Ozzel, Moff Jerjerrod, Migs Mayfeld, The Client, Tala Durith, Ysanne Isard, The Grand Inquisitor, Darth Traya, Darth Zannah, Darth Talon, Abeloth herself or even that guy in Return of the Jedi who says, "We're not going to attack??" before I saw Morgan Elsbeth in an inaugural "Tales of the Empire" series. As for Barriss Offee, she would seem more suited for a "Tales of the Force Flippers" before she would represent the Empire.. Basically, Disney tries to shoe-in whomever they want for their own purposes rather than do whatever makes sense.

    So we’re somehow supposed to care about this character that they’ve already killed off for what? Morgan was never a captivating character just a plot device in my opinion. But this was better than the Barriss story I guess.

      I mean, from what I heard... they made it work with Andor. Despite him also being an already dead character nobody cared about. Difference is, he got a whole season of a whole show (so far, at least)... and she got half of a mini-series. Also, the quality difference, apparently lol.

    Overall these episodes were immensely dull.
    From the language of the show the people of the town and Elsbeth already had a tense relationship. Like she was the one working them hard and making these promises of wealth, only for them to see no fruit of this labor whilst she suffered no consequences.

    I think that thrawn explained the threat to the Galaxy as the rebellion. People in power who gain their position by means of force and ambition and not the will of the people will always perceive freedom as the enemy since freedom brings prosperity for everyone and erases their foundation of power which allows them to pick and choose those who will prosper and benefit based on their support and loyalty.
    Autocrats and aristocrats always view themselves as inherently better than those they rule over. The power dynamic they enjoy allows them to project that belief both inward and outward. They believe they have a mandate to provide order and "peace." An absence of their authority would result in chaos, destruction and death.
    Their absence would simply result in a power vacuum which would be filled by an inferior autocrat who lacks their vision, brilliance and capability. Or worse yet, a collective movement by the common people of the Galaxy to unite in purpose of mutual prosperity and liberty... Which is absurd, like rats agreeing to do what is best for everything in the landfill

    Can we all agree that palpatine was the dumbest idiot ever for choosing to kill Plageuis and trade one of the greatest sith of all time for a rabid attack dog? Palpatine’s plans are extremely complicated sure, but they culminate in him ruling the galaxy for only 20 years, and then being killed by the most obvious person possible (in sith culture at least).

  • @vernonhampton5863

    3:26 I actually disagree with this take. From the positioning of the characters, look at Morgan's posture. She has her back to the head man, hands behind her back in what business people call the 'dominator' position. She doesn't view him as an equal, or even deserving of her full attention. He's beneath her, and she puts him back in his place. They were never her people, she was using them.

    It's amazing how many people watch star wars shows despite thinking they're all shite, goingby the majority of the comments thus far. Perhaps it's like fiddling with a sore tooth. Perhaps it's time to do something else that's more satisfying. Although, I guess having a solid whine is satisfying in itself.

    How they claim to like Andor and find these shows as anything above mediocre filler is beyond me.
