I love Anchorhead’s point about wishing for a more focused story that a movie could provide on one hand, but on the other, also loving the little character moments that a episodic series provides that may have been lost otherwise. That little conversation between Leia and Obi, about her birth parents, and Obi recalling fragmented memories of his own family, was a really nice moment.
I have to say, though, I feel like this show, of all shows, shouldn’t have needed to “save the budget” for the last few episodes. But again, we don’t really know why it looks the way it does. Could he budget, or filmmakers’ inexperience with the Volume.
