Who would have thought that spending most of your show with your main character wandering aimlessly in the desert, and most of the rest of it being spent with a character from a much better show, would make for a really shitty unfocused story with no stakes or interesting characters? They didn't even try, man. They spend millions on these things and they didn't even try.
They try and build it up like he's protecting people he's come to know and respect but literally everyone he builds a relationship with dies except for the Cyberpunk kids. Maybe they should have spent time developing the people instead of doing, idk, an episode of Pimp My Ride with the Mandalorian????
At least the Mandalorian had a fun adventure vibe to it, but BoBF is just watching a fat old man fail miserably at being a crime lord. He's all like "don't worry about the other gangs, I made a deal where they pinky promised not to double-cross me and side with the guys who they directly told me have made them incredibly wealthy". DUMBASS! I could run a better crime syndicate.
I haven't even seen new Star Wars content since Solo came out, but each successive piece of media that Disney released since The Force Awakens made me wonder if Star Wars was ever any good. Like maybe it always sucked this hard. With the sole exception of Rogue One. Which is not a good movie, but I feel like it has the bones of a good movie*. And after I saw Solo I just realized that they were never going to put out Star Wars content I would like, so I stopped. I've watched a few clips of Mando and Boba and it's just reinforced my decision, it seems like the scripts for these shows are trash. Part of that is me becoming a hard-to-please weirdo as I get older, but not all of it. Like, there's only one way I would ever enjoy an Obi-wan show, but no one else would. In my imagination Obi-Wan spends his 20 years in the desert doing nothing. He sits around and meditates, he watches over Luke, he does not get involved with the locals because getting involved in anything could lead to Vader finding Luke. So any media about Obi-Wan would have to be an introspective character piece, maybe throw in some psychedelic Force visions or something for flavor. An old man toddles around the desert, learns the mysteries of the Force, and tries to deal with his immense grief and trauma. But Disney's never going to make that show, and they'd be crazy to because obviously a show like that could never make them money. But also it'd be a risk, and Disney's not going to take risks. Why should they? No one else is, really. It's easier to just release pablum to the masses.
*There have been exactly two good pieces of Star Wars media released since 2015 that I have seen. They are: Twilight Company by Alexander Freed, a military SF novel mostly about a company of Rebel fighters on the fringe of the conflict, and the novelization of Rogue One also by Alexander Freed, which elevates a mediocre movie into being pretty good character-driven SF. I do feel like to get the most out of Rogue One you need to read the prequel novel Catalyst by James Luceno, but Luceno's just not an especially good writer. Competent, I suppose, but his books always seem a little lifeless to me.
