I finally watched the last two episodes of this show.

I get the strong feeling that this show was written by a team of writers comprised of individuals who had very differing ideas about what the show was supposed to be about. It seems that a lot of the events that happen in this show were the result of some kind of compromise between different writers, or maybe between writers and executives.

For example, it seems that the show wanted to explore the hypocrisies and sins of the Jedi as an institution, by showing how they committed an atrocity (massacred a coven of witches) and then covered this up. I don’t necessarily like this idea, but it at least represents a vision for the show. But then some writer was like “no… we can’t do that, the Jedi wouldn’t just murder people”. So eventually the writers reached a compromise where the Jedi kind of, sort of, kind of accidentally killed all the witches in self-defense. But this compromise waters down the entire show and makes the whole thing incoherent. Why exactly did Torbin commit suicide again?
