What bothers me most about the show is the fact that it is something made strictly for those who watched Rebels.
The problem is that they had stated MULTIPLE times before the series aired that it was basically Rebels, Season 5. Watching Rebels beforehand is a requirement to understand what is happening in the show.
So it is kind of funny to me that people complain about that as a weak point for the show, the solution is easy… watch Rebels first. This show is a SEQUEL. Are you going to watch Jedi before Empire? Or Last Jedi before Force Awakens?
So why not just make it animated and call it Rebels Season 5?
Making it live action implies that it’s a continuation of the current live action shows like Mando Season 2 where Ashoka showed up previously. It’s totally understandable why average viewers are confused that they have to watch an animated kids show set before the Galactic Civil War to understand what’s happening in a presumably adult-oriented post-Galactic Civil War show.
The worst part for me is the implication that the medium has no bearing on the message, which is simply not true. You can’t expect a character in animation to read the same when ported to live action, and vice versa. This is not to say that one medium is better than another, but to treat them as interchangeable is ludicrous.
