I don’t want to let the toxic elements of the fandom (and they are loud and horrible) color my enjoyment of the franchise too much. Anyway, not sure how I feel about Obi Wan Kenobi. The show, I mean, but now that I think about it perhaps also the character. Nice to be in a hive of villainy not on Tattooine. The Inquisitors just don’t make sense to me, I don’t get what they are all about, but Jedi on the run is potentially fun.

The thing with the Inquisitors is that they work for Vader (or the Emperor) tracking down Jedi (and potential baby Jedi). They, or some of them, might be former Jedi who were tortured/brainwashed into falling to the Dark Side and working for evil. They're not full-on Sith, but they're Dark.
As for the show, I enjoyed the hell out of that and was pleasantly surprised by several aspects.
However I suspect that the Grand Inquisitor isn't dead, because he is killed in S1 or S2 of Rebels by Kanan Jarrus. That's a major plot element of that show, and Dave Filoni would not have forgotten that.

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.
Yeah, I was thinking no way is the Grand Inquisitor dead.
I will say the surprise of the show for me is young Leia. I can absolutely believe this girl grows up to be the badass young woman we meet in ANH.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Ugh. So toxic.
