I don't mean stuff that was obviously bad on sight (to you) and so you didn't bother with, or even necessarily content you just checked out of before the first episode was done. But a series that you ultimately felt wasted your time and abandoned due to its total lack of quality.

Obi Wan. Mandalorian was a little disappointing but cool and zeitgeisty, Boba Fett was worse, then the Obi Wan show was just unwatchable. Which is weird because Andor was so much better than it had any right to be.

Mando was a grear two season run. 1 season of motw type and season 2 for the last episode.

This was the last Star Wars thing I watched and was the final straw for me. Made a resolution then and there to never watch this shit ever again, no matter how many times people say "it's actually really good though" about the latest Disney Star Wars thing (exactly what they said about the Obi-Wan show).

[–] not_woody_shaw@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Andor is actually really good though. Totally unlike the other Disney Star Wars slop.

It’s sad because The Obi Wan show got retooled repeatedly during production. Pretty sure exec meddling ruined it. “Baby yoda is a huge hit! Let’s add baby Leia to Obi Wan stat!”

The Acolyte was by far the worst live action SW ever made

[–] not_woody_shaw@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I actually watched The Acolyte and liked it better than Boba Fett and Obi Wan.

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

Eh yeah orobably to be fair, Boba sucked. Obi Wan had cool moments same as Acolyte. That helmut headbut to the lightsaber was fantastic

I feel compelled to watch every episode of a series to the end. I'm so bad about this that I still try to catch up on Simpsons.

I gave up on Obi and never went back to finish it. That is despite Ewan being an amazing Obi Wan.

The world may never know if they ever finished filming Obi Wan, because we can't find anyone to try watching all the way through...

I was telling a joke about the Obi Wan series. Obi Wan KeNoni “Noni” is a way of saying “I'm sleepy” in Argentine Spanish.
