I really wish the actor who plays Baylan didn’t pass away. Such a great character so far.

true but he is getting killed.

episode 6 was the best yet, glad this isn't just some hokey rebels with live actors although the best parts are definitely not related to rebels either.

Loved episode 6. Had fan service for Rebels fans while keeping it from being over the top. Can't wait for the next episode.

Exactly. That battle scene was REALLY well done. Almost perfectly some might say. Just caught up on everything this weekend and as far as the show goes overall, whereas Episodes 1-2 were ok, from 3 forward it really gets going and now I'm all in. I'm pleasantly surprised with how the show turned out... so far. The Thrawn story is LONG overdue so it's great to finally see him getting some live action love.

Worst ever Star Wars stuff. It’s like watching a skit on SNL. It’s so fucking bad. The scenes where the green chick is flying with the little shit-kid are horrendously bad. Like Dr Who levels of production.

I'm not sure I'm comfortable with that.

For some reason I got the vibe that Thrawn doesn't make it out of season 1. I will be so pissed off if that happens, but I'd imagine Filoini has 2-3 seasons of story here. But yes, all of the Thrawn love. The Star Wars big baddie we deserve. Cold, calculated and brutal. Kept the Chimera aloft and his crew together for 20 years or so without resupply. The dude Palpatine was afraid of. No space laser swords, no dance fighting, no magic tricks.

And yeah, the plot feels apparent from here. Thrawn + witches start fixing up the star destroyer with enough baling wire, duct tape, and witch magic enough to make the jump home. Ahsoka arrives in time to catch up with Ezra and Sabine, just before Baylan +1 arrive to fight. During the fight Thrawn does a fly by, waves out the window, and ditches them all because he needed a distraction so Ahsoka didn't wreck his day. They all played their part but are now just liabilities he can leave behind. The lightsaber weilding supergroup will join together to find a way home. Hera will be at the New Republic defense committee hearing getting yelled and demoted when the call comes in that Thrawn is back and just absolutely thrashed a dozen of their best using his one broke ass ship before jumping off to destination unknown to regather his strength. The committee starts trying to kiss Hera's ass, but she already walked out with chopper to go commit some court-marshall offences. Thrawn meets up with the first order council and sets up shop. The jedi supergroup makes a lightsaber pentagram at the witch tower and Scotty beams them aboard the enterprise at warp speed just before they slingshot around the sun, flinging them all back home. Or to earth circa 1984.

Ahsoka season finale was great. Too bad it's over now tho. I ended up enjoying the show a lot more than I had originally anticipated. I was honestly expecting a boring dud, but ended up being pleasantly surprised. A lot of people discounted the show after the first couple episodes, but then after those it really got going. Reminds me of some of the Star Trek shows where it took the writers a while to get their footing. Particularly TNG and DS9. Like those, Ahsoka was worth sticking with it.
