I’ve been really enjoying this show so far. I like it better when Star Wars is “loose and easy” and doesn’t take itself too seriously. This latest episode is like a homage to the podrace in tpm as well as the race in Droids, and I like that we focused on Tech, for a change. Will be interesting to see how the dynamic between the team and Sid continues to evolve. Sounds like they’re gonna eventually leave her and join “a bigger cause” or whatever.
The big challenge down the road is gonna be figuring out how to address why all these cartoon characters are missing from other stuff (mainly the OT). Rebels already had to pull a lot of things out of its arse to explain why those people are all absent later on. How much will this show be able to get away with, in that regard?
