Spinoff-prequel-spinoffs… As much as I like the sequels, it does feel now in retrospect like they’ve played that card perhaps too soon, because now the way forward seems to be for the most part to milk the OT era, with most of these live action shows being set either a couple years before the OT or a couple years after. And pretty much none of these are really “main story”. If the sequels didn’t exist (though I’m glad they do), perhaps now would be time to move forward the main story in the Mando era, but their hands are kinda tied, aren’t they? Like really, I’m glad there will be something for almost everyone, but how much time can you spend telling stories within the same timeframe? This was the running joke a few years ago, but then they canceled a bunch of stuff, but now I guess every piece of furniture getting a prequel spinoff actually will be a thing!

I agree about a Rey series, but it seems they are distancing themselves from the sequel era after all… my heart cries at the lack of any word on a Rian Johnson trilogy/movie/series.
