A friend of mine suggested that I watch Rebels, which I already planned to do at some point in the future, just hadn’t gotten around to yet. However, he says the first season sucks, but it gets great as soon as S2 begins. Is that a fair assessment? If so, how much of S1 do I have to watch to know enough to get to the good stuff?
I wouldn’t call that a fair assessment. The first season is slow to start, but it becomes pretty good by the end. S2 is good but of somewhat inconsistent quality, so I wouldn’t really say it’s a significant improvement. I’d just start from the beginning. The “bad” stuff isn’t really all that bad.
