the power of many haircuts was the best part of the episode. More of that, Disney!

His reveal as the Sith showed how bad the writers are, since people had assumed it would be him since episode 2.
Other theories, including the moms, existed because people figured Greasy was too obvious.

I really have no idea wtf is going on in this show. Osha changes her mind multiple times every episode that I can’t keep up. The acting and dialogue is still terrible.
I will say that that was by far the best episode but that’s not very hard to be considering the rest. The force pull onto the lightsaber was legit. I do think Smilo Ren is meh by the guy that turned out to be him. The only thing that could save the series for me is if there is a bigger Sith Lord behind the scenes like Darth Tenebrous
Also the scene transitions are the worst I’ve ever seen. Right when something major is about to happen it cuts to Mae or Osha running around aimlessly. I also LOL’d when then the chick held her saber in front of her face for like 5 seconds then cut her hair off.

Has it been discussed in this thread how the Sith may not be a Sith at all, and instead is the start of the Knights of Ren?

lear that Headland made that padowan character her self-insert. All those jedi got killed quickly and then this young girl kicks Mae's (who has been killing jedi masters) arse and holds her own against the sith lord. Then he calls her a loyal apprentice or some shite. Shout out to big Harvey.
Mae has lost every fight she’s been in. She only killed Indarra because she distracted her by throwing the knife at the bartender
She couldn’t break through Torbin’s meditations field and he killed himself.
Sol had her incapacitated without drawing a weapon.
a trained padawan taking her out makes sense.
as to the loyal apprentice bit… I mean that’s pretty obvious if you have any concept of what’s going on in the show.

Like how senator palpatine was Sidious. The audience knew even if the characters didn’t.
So not surprised at all, I wasn’t expecting a big twist.

But a trained padawan doing better than all the other jedi working together? All except Sol bc he somehow disappeared in the beginning of the 10v1 fight. We dont know what happened to him in the beginning bc cut scenes.
One of the things that bothered me is in the end there is a shot of Bazil and he looks huge in the forest next to some trees. Looks like maybe just some lazy CGI work.

Well that explains the terrible hair Padawan anakin had. The Jedi version of the flowbee.

Ive mentioned that it might have been a rogue dark force user. Probably using the Sith name as a ploy, hell the guy didn't even give himself a Darth title. Which makes me think he's using Pre-Bane Sith idealogy.

idk about you but my self insert would last more than 20 seconds.

The problem there is that something like "maybe don't have people doing overtly sexual things in public at pride events in front of children" is considered "hate speech"

I can’t imagine people hate watching this are rationale, sane beings. I just see this shirt clips, chuckle, and move on. Because it’s trying to be serious but ends up objectively retarded. What’s with the dumbass dramatic crouching from this character? Seems she keeps doing it.

A limited series about this dude discovering a holocron and descending into evil would have been much better than this schlock

Reason #1 they shouldn't have been hired. If you don't care about a show/story making sense and you have an absolute disregard for the cannon, history, and lore of a franchise then you shouldn't even be given the job.

In his last scene they had the Kylo Ren theme playing, that's where the Knights of Ren speculation is coming from.

And likely none of them know who Plagueis or Bane is, or anything about their ideology.
They have a writer bragging about never having seen Star Wars. So anything that comes across as lore accurate is purely incidental.

Like Rey, they had 3 movies to make the knights of ren cool and didn’t

We’ll see.
I think “I am what you would call a sith” is not the same as “i’m a sith”
I think there will be enough detachment for the Jedi to write him off as a non-sith and continue to believe the sith are extinct.
I’ll say this, I a glad it was Qimir. If the sith lord whipped off her helmet and said “Osha, I am your mother” I would have come in here and apologized and the. made 10 RT accounts and review bombed the show myself

What's really funny is that YT reactors have been calling him Smile-O-Ren.
