“Universe shaking” is what fits more to the whole disastrous influence and hamfisted policy Kennedy and crew had since episode 7. It just got worse and worse after that, creativity and quality was bled out because certain concepts had to be forcibly injected in the product. And it is clear they can’t leave things alone as they are, everything has to change from the success it was.
Both the IP and the fanbase were shaken violently by a rabid dog like a small bunny it preyed on.
I’m not very Star Wars litterate and I quite enjoyed the Ahsoka series.
Could you explain the concepts you mentioned in your post so that I get what is wrong with this series ?
I realise there might be confusion, I meant Episode 7 the movie (The Force Awakens), ever since that management has been molding star wars into what it is not. Even if succesful a show gets twisted into stupidity later on.
I liked Ahsoka for the attempt it was, though it was badly rushed from the start, and the ending was rushed as well. I feel the show needed at least 2 more episodes to flesh out the path to the ending. Baylan’s story could have used more time, as did Ezra and Sabine meeting, even Thrawn could have used some more spice.
Thanks for the precision, I had read your comment too fast and assumed you were talking about the series.
Ashoka was okay, but to be honest, the light saber battle scenes felt like the camera was WAY to close.
I couldn’t appreciate the battle choreography because the camera was pointed at whatever facial reaction they made every time their lightsaber got stuck.
Which also gives the impression you are watching a light saber fight from a keyhole.
The night sister battle was much better because of the wider camera angle.
Writing was fine, characters were fine, Thrawn was rushed out a little fast, most of my family didn’t know who he was and it didn’t feel like they had time to process him before he was yanked out of the story again.

This video does a pretty good job explaining all its issues:
Thank you for the link !
Pure teasing is all franchises do now, never any consequence or real movement.
I’d love to see something actually drastic happen in these shows, Marvel had the snap and have fumbled since.
Disney already botched their attempt to carry the Star Wars franchise forward with the sequel trilogy, so now all they can do is make the OT timeline more and more convoluted.
Absolutely fucked that franchise, it is so boring now. All of Ahsoka was shit, like they literally forgot to put the pay off…but they didn’t that’ll be somewhere else so you have to watch that.
Group should have stayed gone.
I would like to say it can’t get any worse but…
Let’s put the guy who made the lowest rated Star Wars show in charge of shepherding the entire franchise!
I wonder if some of the directions made to the show were because of Kennedy. They had this issue with Mando and Fav said he was going to leave if they dont leave him alone.
After hearing Filoni talk so passionately about the original and preques on the Mandalorian S1 behind the scenes, I can think of no better person for the job. The man lives and breathes that universe.
Being a fan boy isn’t always great for producing good content. The problems with recent star wars are way more than some corporate meddling.
His animated stuff was good, which is what most of the live action stuff is about.
I would disagree that most of the live action is related to the animated series. The one most related (Ahsoka) bombed.
I’d like to know who steered Obi Wan into the rewrite with “baby leia”. Basically turning it into a Mandalorian season one clone. And who fucked up Boba Fett by adding the neon kiddie scooter gang and Mandalorian in the second half. The first half of the season was a beautiful slow burn, but the latter half was horrible.
