Season 1, Episode 6
6/10
Just about still with it
22 September 2023
Sabine arrives at her destination as Ahsoka follows.

I am relieved that the plot has moved from where it was lingering for the first five episodes and the introduction of certain characters is a positive.

I still find it difficult to keep interested in the story as there is a lot of exposition dialogue that I feel ambivalent about. For me we need to see something happen that does not involve reflection on the past or build up to characters we are yet to see. I appreciate I might feel different had I watched Rebels.

I think the best scenes involve the character Baylan Skoll, as you feel like it's laying the foundations of what is to come and just about keeps me wanting to find out what happens next.

Natasha Liu Bordizzo carries it well for the majority of the time and Lars Mikkelson adds a much needed presence.

Visually it continues to be beautifully designed. I love the battered Star Destroyer and the look of certain characters. As good as a certain location looks, I think it needed something significantly different to convey that we are in a different galaxy. What that would be though I have no suggestions. The art designers involved in the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise are very creative, so maybe Disney should have consulted them.
