This is it. The grand finale of Ahsoka, definitely one of the shows of all time. This was definitely a show. There were some lights, some words, some moving blobs of flesh or metal. And many, many failed attempts at storytelling.
Plotline? Closure? You'll find none of it here. The most interesting character of this show, Baylan Skoll (not a high bar mind you) pulls a Luke Skywalker and appears for a grand total of 12 seconds, without a single line. Shin Hati suffers the same treatment. And Morgan Elsbeth complete her arc of being there by dying there.
Hopefully, we have Thrawn! And once again, he's completely useless and out of his depths. He's content to just stand before a map, send his troops one by one to their death, pretend it's all part of his masterplan and looking smug about it. Although that last part he can't even get right this time, as his lameness starts to frustrate him as well now.
Gone are the days where the words consequences or threat meant anything. Bombarded by a Star Destroyer? Just ride through. Attacked by TIE fighters? Just stand there, they'll miss a non-moving target. Surrounded by dozens of Stormtroopers? Don't worry, they won't shoot you in the back, not even when you're fighting a witch and you're wide open. Remember when even the most powerful of Jedi Masters were killed when facing a dozen Clones? Man, I miss those days.
Sabine still won't face any repercussion for her betrayal, but that goes without saying. How could a purple haired lady face any sort of consequence for her terrible decisions in a Disney show. Ezra is still kept in the dark about how she found him, and Ahsoka calls her antics a gamble. A good decision which led to them finding Ezra. Even though Sabine thought she was dead when she gave the map to Baylan, and that she would be ten times dead if Ahsoka didn't show up. And never mind that now Thrawn has been unleashed on the galaxy, everything they ever fought for is at stake, and that millions of people will most likely die even if they manage to stop the Grand Admiral. All that because poor little Sabine felt sad and alone. Taking it upon herself? Accepting Ezra's sacrifice? Finding solace in the freedom and peace trillions of people enjoy? Nah, your feelings are way more important, honey.
An entire season just for Thrawn to issue a command, go into hyperspace and return to the main galaxy. What a complete waste of time and money. And of course, this season couldn't be complete without a final nostalgia bait. Remember Anakin Skywalker? He's there as well! For about 4 seconds! Are you not entertained?
