This is a tough question.

First, I believe that 77 and 80 would have been the most exciting time, but i wasn’t around, so for me, it can’t be part of my answer.

But i do feel that this current period offers the most hope for quality Star Wars content. I don’t regard everything to have been great so far under disney, and i don’t dispute Dre’s comment about standing on the OT’s shoulders (but isn’t that unavoidable to some degree?), but there have been some quality movies and tv shows in my opinion, and i am excited to see the new ones that are coming.

in the PT era, i was also excited about there being new star wars movies, but there wasn’t much else to look forward to (ep III would be the last one by definition), so this ST period certainly exceeds the PT period for me.
