After Clone Wars, I would take in Rebels before the other shows, but you could put bad batch between the two. Andor is also a good one as it also happens within the timeframe and you get a break from animation. But, these would be the four shows that I would call must watch Star Wars.

Well that was a lie. Still a good episode though.

Has to be set up by Palpatine. The way the Droid greets the Republic Emissary reminds me of the way the cloners greeted Obi Wan.

Not sure about JL's character. Definitely force sensitive. Has to have some training to control objects . Though he is not good, I think he would be much more powerful if he had dark training. A dark jedi would have definitely choked out the dog pirate at the first challenge.

Wim is the most annoying character, jeez he sucks. Everybody else is so much better. I like the show though

I thought Wim was a girl for most of the first episode

I agree, he is the weakest. But it’s mainly because the other 3 are doing an exceptional job, especially Neel. Wim did have a good scene saving KB last week.

I'm guessing he's a former youngling that escaped the purge.

ETA: Sorry, just saw that Shaun covered this on the previous page.

Definitely a youngling from pre-purge. Did he leave or get kicked out due to his greed/ lying or was he tol old to be trained when he was discovered and still taught some stuff? He has more control of the force than others who we have seen not complete their training. Usually dark Jedi are much more powerful but maybe turning bad due to greed doesn't have the same effect as hate. Or could he be kind of the new Grey Jedi that they seem to be adding to the story?

The end is going to be interesting. Who is going to show up at the end to wipe out the pirates?

Seems like this will be a rushed ending
Probably could have made this ten episodes
I doubt they have another season as these kids will age out

I laughed when Jod called him worst of the group.

KP and her moms will fix him, I’m not worried about that one.

I am curious how they will be able to end this in a single episode. You would think they have to either destroy the frigate or bring them all down to the planet and seclude them. Otherwise the secret of the location will get out, maybe that is the end game after all.

Another question, it looked like they were shocked to have an emissary visit for a collection. When was the last time the republic came to collect the credits? It must have been decades if not longer.

I did see a rumor that some of the characters would appear in the Mando and Grogu movie.

I'm pretty much ok with any character appearing in another show other than Whim. Hopefully he takes his test at the end and is deemed to be a garbage man the rest of his life.

I bet Neel could take Thrawn in a couple years.

It was probably Count Dooku when they set up the system to hide the planet. Thrawn probably shows up at the end to collect the credits to start building the 1st Order.

The pirates will have to go through a series of challenges that involve underground slides, booby traps, and working as a team. During this fun ol' Jod will tell a tale and make us tear up. A climax will ensue in which the droids are overthrown in a short battle or clever reprogramming. Then the supervisor (Anthony Hopkins lookalike or similar) wraps it up by letting the pirates and Jod live amongst them in peace and prosperity. Jod smiles at her Mom hinting at a future romance. The End. It's a kids show

Solid finale and overall a great show. Right under Andor and the best of Mando. I was hoping Jod would get airlocked, but this way maybe we can see him again.

Next up is Andor season 2 starting April 22.
