This season has no continuous momentum & no building tension or stakes. Sure now that the child is abducted (once again) there’s a stake but it’s not as tight nor fresh as season one, and there’s nothing organically cinematic about tying season 2s episodes together in any way.
I’m thinking the base raid maybe could be integrated into season a 1 film edit but everything else would be somewhat at odds. It’s truly meant to be episodic,this season especially so.
But for the most part season 2 just feels like “set up some spin-offs and season 3” in a nutshell.
I feel like all the episodes are just filler until they go to ashoka then to the pillar thingy with boba fett
