I still don't understand the pacing of The Book of Boba Fett. I feel like it's a lot of build up and episode filler to get to..something but not sure what.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
We've had that option for a while, but it doesn't stick, so completely watched things keep popping back into the list.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Book of Boba Fett: I know Dave Filoni loves his unique characters, but my God am I sick of Cad Bane. I never really cared for them during The Clone Wars (they were just cartoonishly overly competent and got even worse as time went on) and would have been perfectly happy if they had been left there.
Also, Boba Fett seems to be the most worthless crime boss, ever. I really don't understand why this show exists. I enjoyed seeing more of the Tuskens' culture, but the show is just very weird and inconsistent as a whole.

I am weirded out by the existence of commercial flights to Tatooine. Also young Luke with that freaking haircut is a little uncanny valley for me. But mostly, that is some bullshit, Luke, lightsaber vs armor.

At least the de-aging effect on his face looked better this time around, but yeah his hair seems to be one uniform mass and it's unsettling.

I thought the Uncanny Valley was much less Uncanny, but Luke's hair was too dark, and he was kind of an asshole. Chase a little kid around with lightning bolts, not let him see his father, and then force him to decide between his family and his ambition.
I love Ahsoka, but I didn't think she was consistent with the character from Rebels much, either. Much more Jedi-ish and much less humane. She isn't a Jedi, for good reasons, and the old Jedi rules screwed her over. So I don't quite understand why she's so onboard with the rules as interpreted by Luke. Luke's got it wrong.
This is at least consistent with the sequel trilogy, I guess?

I did think Ahsoka telling Luke he was like his father was an interesting moment

A while back ltc was watching Kipo and the Age of the Wonderbeasts, but got bored with it and stopped. I think it was too plot heavy for her at the time. However, I was intrigued by the bits I saw. So, I started watching it this week, and it's such a fun show. I'm going to see if I can get her to watch it with me again sometime.

I think with Ahsoka she's not yet completely disillusioned of the Jedi way, she just knows it's not for her. I don't remember her having any issues with Kanan's teaching of Ezra in Rebels in the same way he was taught, though obviously he didn't really subscribe to the no attachments thing, either. The problem is that to get to the Luke of The Last Jedi he needs to try to do things the "traditional" way first and fail.
