They were asked if they went back and watched anything for research. The actor that plays the Grand Inquisitor says "Oh Yeah..." and the actress that plays Reva says "I actually didn't, I felt like I had so much freedom to make Reva who she wanted to be...It's really hard to believe but I had never seen any of the movies so it was really this experience that opened up the door to Star Wars for me"

Explains her soulless performance pretty well. Reminds me of the female doctor who. It's a career boost and a paycheck. Dislike their performance? You're a raciseximisogy-etc.

The show is far from great. The title is Kenobi but the whole plot seems to be the adventures of Leia and Reva. Darth Vader is the most powerful Jedi/Sith in the galaxy. He has no qualms about killing anyone. Yet when she mentions she has a tracking device ( which to me is a plot hole), he is like “ oh well then my bad. You may live bc how could I retrieve the tracking device information bc you have it.”

Literally makes no sense. He could get all the info from her using the force. Then kill her and go track Kenobi.

Many other issues make this show which had the potential to be great just about average.

Reva character sucks and so does the actress who plays her.

Given how they treated the legacy actors of the original trilogy, none of this should be surprising.
