I binge watched the entire first season last night, and I wanted more. That is saying something.

Sure, it is made for kids, but it feels more like a made for the older 12-14 year old range, though I would've watched it as a 5 year old if it had existed.

I've gotten used to the art style. I think the thing that bothered me the most was the fact that hair looked like it was made out of rubber.

I also gotta give Frank Oz some props. He sounded much more like the wise, yet joyful character of the original trilogy. They didn't force the backwards talk as heavy as the prequels. The Clone Wars series is probably even more blatant, with Tom Kane taking over the role. Not every sentence Yoda udders has to be phrased like that. In ESB and ROTJ, it wasn't an awkward way of phrasing when you think about it. It just felt like an old way of speaking. Kind of like how a direct translation of something in Spanish is always phrased odd when looking at it from an English perspective. In the prequels, he sounds like he's trying to phrase it weird.
