It looks awesome. I love that they have the characters from the Rebels series as well.

I'm really behind on my viewings. I last left off with Mando season 2. Do I need to watch Andor before I get into anything else?
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
At the moment it doesn’t seem to tie into the rest of the Mando-verse much, but I imagine it will as eventually everything will lead to the big screen movie Filoni is working on. Anyway, I’d still recommend watching everything in the order it came out.
So if you stopped at Mando S2, next up would be The Book of Boba Fett, then Obi-Wan Kenobi, then Andor, then Mando S3, and now Ahsoka.
And you totally should not skip Andor as it’s amazing. And as expected, Ahsoka is fantastic. I am beyond excited for Filoni’s Avengers-style SW movie now.
Thanks, Mae. I have seen BOBF and Obi (forgot about those) so Andor it is!

Sure thing! Oh forgot that Mon Mothma is in both Andor and spotted in Ahsoka trailers.
Ray Stevenson is like a Vader to me. I LOVE HIS WORK ON THIS SERIES.. shame we lost him

I started watching Ahsoka, and it was so clearly a direct sequel to something I hadn’t seen, I thought I should stop and watch that thing. So I’m now watching Rebels, after never been able to get into animated Star Wars before.
Rebels is fun. The animation isn’t distracting, and the voice acting is generally good. Dialogue is a. It clunky at times, but generally I like it.
Interesting to see certain very “Star Wars” shots in an animated form, and surprising to see how many plot events from this 2014 show find their way into more modern live action Star Wars. We also get more of a sense as to why the Empire is bad, apart from blowing up planets with Death Stars.
The only nit pick I would make is the same one I have of a lot of Star Wars outside the movies: too many surviving Jedi. The whole point of Empire/Jedi is that the Jedi are gone, and that Luke is the only hope to conquer Vader and the Emperor. Having a bunch of fully-trained Jedi in hiding undermines that premise.
I’ll get back to Ahsoka after I finish the four seasons. That a lot of episodes, but they are nicely bite-sized.

I've been advocating for the animated Star Wars (Clone Wars, The Bad Batch, Rebels) for years here, so I'm glad you're getting into it now. It was clear to me that Ahsoka would need to be watched with all of that context in mind, though they did try their best to inject a lot of context into these first two episodes.
My feeling is that the entire Mando-verse is building off Dave Filoni's animated shows, especially Rebels, and building to that big-screen movie that will be the culmination of all of these shows, from Clone Wars on. I'm also guessing that it will set up a new enemy (not Thrawn) that will eventually be the main antagonistic force for the subsequent Saga movies, I'm sure Episode 10 is coming sooner or later.
It doesn’t bug me so much as from a continuity standpoint, because yes, you’re right, Yoda may not have known about all these Jedi. But from a dramatic standpoint, it bothers me because I know about these other Jedi. Luke is no longer the last and best hope for the galaxy. It lowers the stakes, and is certainly not what Lucas originally intended.

Helps also I was never a fan of Luke, that whiny boy.
There's no way in hell I'll ever get to the animated shows. It's just too much time for me. I'll look for a 10-minute YouTube recap video to give me all the main bullet points.
Then I'll start Ahsoka.
Soooo is no one else watching Ahsoka? Surprised there hasn't been any discussion on here...
It's ok. A bit underwhelming but I feel that this is the new Star Wars way.. like Marvel I grow tired of it. The next Marvel movie will be the FIRST one since they started with HULK I will miss.

I'm really enjoying it, even though I'm a little underwhelmed at the Thrawn actor portraying him. I know its the guy that voiced him in the cartoons, but I always pictured him being this like towering, physically imposing mastermind. This guy just looks like he'd lose a fight against a paper bag.
I'm sure his deviousness in future episodes will make up for it though. Looking forward to the finale this week.
Also just let Favreau + Filoni direct everything SW from now on.
