Have to agree with some others that I’m not as excited about the show as I thought I would be after seeing the trailers. The show has a great crew, so I’m sure it will be a solid production, but it seems to be going in a direction that I wasn’t expecting. I also am personally not really impressed with the look of the show so far.

I think Star Wars has always ridden this line between sci-fi pulp action and space opera mythology, and the newer streaming projects lean more towards the former. I’m sure I’ll still watch it and have fun with it as a fan, but I have a feeling I’ll be disappointed if I set my expectations too high.
