Obi-Wan is show that has so much potential but falls flat on many fronts. The premise is fairly interesting, but the writing in the show in so unbalanced, that it pulled me out at times. There are so many times where character decisions are made simply due to plot progression that make not logical sense. This series is saved by the amazing performances by Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan and Hayden Christianson/James Earl Jones as Anakin/Darth Vader. The broken-down version of Obi-Wan in this series is completely believable and I found myself invested in his redemption process. Darth Vader offers so ma... read the rest.

In my view this should have been played with the lead as someone with power who is reluctant to use it, given past tragedies. Instead, Obi Wan comes across as weak and bumbling.

In terms of overall story, unlike The Mandalorian, this tale lacks pace and exc... read the rest.

Well, we have to give this credit for alienating the last of the Star Wars fanbase and turning Obi Wan into a pathetic loser who runs away from everything, gets outsmarted at every turn, and redefines words like "cowardliness."

But, it also manages to replace Luke with his sister in Star Wars lore.

But, let's face it, it wasn't made for Star Wars fans, it was made for the political left wing book burning goose steppers who want nothing more to see every fandom fail, especially those which have moral and upstanding heroic characters that fight against things like actual oppression that you... read the rest.
