I did enjoy the ending of Kenobi. It’s clearly a 2:30h motion picture script, padded to make a 6h TV series.
I think a fanedit would be very easy to do.

As others mentioned, the editing on the final episode didn’t give a clear notion of time. That’s because they didn’t use the wipe transitions. Wipes indicate to the viewer that we’ve jumped in time, omitting part of the action. Without them, action seems to take place continuously. Music cues and cleaver montage can also serve the same purpose.

There are problems with visual mastering. Light levels are way too low - unless you have a properly calibrated HDR TV, you won’t see a thing.

But I really liked the series! It strikes the same notes as the PT and OT - the characters do the best they can, but are flawed and make mistakes along the way. Yet they are very likable and human. At the end of Kenobi, I can say that about Bail, Owen, the fake Jedi guy, etc. I’d like to spend more time with them.
