Season 1, Episode 6
9/10
Best of the season but that's not saying much!

This episode was the best, largely due to the duel! The conclusion here actually made my heart stop for a moment. Gave me "Twilight of the aprentice" vibes. Unfortuanaly the emotional build up to this confrontation wasn't good enough, otherwise this would have been even better. We got what we wanted, it just could have been better executed. Everything about Reva was devolved of any tension and was very predictable. There really was NO reason to have her in this story. The ending also dragged a little bit too much. The dumb stuff is still here, but it is more watchable than the other episodes. Unfortuanally it doesn't redeem the show for me.

Overall this show was a massive letdown! So many missed opportunities that i can't even count! The writing was bad from the start and it is obvious that it was supposed to be a movie! To many inconsistencies and stuff that straight up doesn't make sense and almost ruin the show. While there were some cool moments, the story and narrative just felt hollow, as there were no clear focus. Obi Wan barely got any characterization other than him learning to be a jedi again. No emotional connection with him and Vader. I can't even say the show was about Obi Wan. Instead it just featured Obi Wan.

Overall i would rather have a better version of this season, instead of a season 2. It feels like quantity over quality at this point. My excitement for any future Star Wars projects is not high. I might check them out, but i keep my expectations low.
