    Holy cow. 4.2 rating on IMDB.! That is beyond awful.

    Let's pray that Disney finally gets the message that people don't like this crap they have been making lately. Lots of people need to be fired.

        Reminded me of The Crucible, for some reason.

          This may be the problem right here. Disney Star Wars is good because it triggers the right people? Not because it's well written and compelling? Something is purposely written to elicit a response from their perceived ideological foes in the fandom and then when the response happens they are upset about it? Disney owns the IP so they can do what they want. I just don't find that writing style very compelling. Again, i haven't seen the show and will probably wait until it concludes and the reviewers I respect weigh in on it before I decide to invest time.

            I haven’t watched a Star Wars show since the third episode of the last Mandalorian season. That season sucked so I lost interest, and to be fair, Obi-wan and Solo sucked as well so I was already losing interest. Andor was great. But I have 0 interest in this new show regardless of the lack of or magnitude of trans/liberal/female/whatever characters.

            im currently rewatching Suits. I find it more compelling than any recent Star Wars show, which is saying something.

              My kids starting watching Justified this week. I am all in. Dewey Crowe is as great as ever.

              That and Taskmaster are filling our evenings.

                the it is great was an attempt at sacarsm with that clip but it is review bombed because of the women in the show or something.

                disney star wars mostly sucks (andor and rouge one exceptions) but I just am amused by the woke accusations

                  Justified is awesome. I may put that on the list next to watch with MJ. She’s never seen it.

                      My mom is watching it for the second time. She cracks me up.

                        I love the hell out of that show and Bosch. Have you seen the justified primeval city show?

                          I watched both the bosch and justified revivals and it seems. Both should've ended as they did

                            Never heard of it. I'll check it out if you think it's worth the time.

                              I've honestly like the Bosch spinoff. It's not as compelling as past seasons, but I like the characters and formula enough to dig it.

                                It's telling that a discussion about other shows/franchises gets more traction here than Star Wars.
