Holy shit, that was Claudia Black as the Dathomir Great Mother on Ahsoka.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I was wondering about 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.

Nice.

I'm kind of annoyed that we're only 2 episodes from the end and it's looking like this whole series is just about setting up something that's going to come later.

I love Reservation Dogs, so I took a chance to see Dark Wind. I really enjoyed Hillerman's books for a while, until i started wonder if it was cultural appropriation.

Anyway, it's weird see some of the same actors from the low key comedy being very serious characters.

I sure loved that show when it was airing and haven't seen it since. Kind of afraid to rewatch at this point.

Wheel of Time 2.6:

Madeline Madden impressed the hell out of me in this episode. Just an incredible physical and emotional performance. I've seen a lot of comparisons to the classic TNG episode "Chain of Command" which fits with my memory of said episode, though I would need to rewatch it to compare.

Ahsoka 108:

That was kind of underwhelming.

I am very disappointed Chopper didn't smack Ezra in the knee or something. Being friendly is out of character for him.

Also, Ezra is apparently studying at the Anakin Skywalker School of Being Needlessly Dramatic. You seriously couldn't ditch at least the helmet before exiting the Imperial shuttle ?

Kalshane, concur on all counts. I mean, didn't Chopper try to kill Ezra repeatedly in S1 of Rebels?

Chopper is a murder droid, and not in the endearing way that Murderbot is.

Overall, that felt a lot more like a Rebels finale than a live-action finale. All the emotional beats were underplayed and not in a cool Andor-like way.

I'm also a bit cranky that the explanation for Sabine's training is that she really is Force-sensitive, just blocked. Because it wasn't her Force-ness that was blocked in Rebels, just her emotions/ability to connect with the Darksaber. I do not like this retcon.

I kind of like the idea that anyone can be a Jedi and it doesn't depend on a biological ability to connect with the Force. You can be a Jedi by training and living like a Jedi.

Anyway, it was ok. I may need to rewatch Andor now.

Yes. Chopper tried to kill Ezra at least twice on Rebels and unless I'm misremembering the final seasons never had any semblance of affection for him. The only person he didn't seem to actively dislike was Hera.

I think that a better scene would have been Ezra stepping off the shuttle without his helmet and while everyone is in shock about him being back Chopper rolls up and does something mean to him. I mean, I guess maybe the concern was we haven't seen enough of Chopper's attitude in the show and people not familiar with Rebels would be confused by his actions.

I'm also annoyed with Sabine having full blown Force powers. I think her simply embodying the Jedi way and maybe having some "soft" powers like intuition and enhanced reflexes like Chirrut from Rogue One would have been way more appropriate.
