So far the Kenobi show has been OK, but this episode really steps it up, everything about it is just better. The direction, the action, the conflict, and the writing, (writing is still not perfect is significantly better). This episode ends with one of the coolest fights I have ever seen in star wars, the pacing, the movement, the twists, so good. Not only that, but the middle parts of the episode are amazing too, with the conflict surrounding the episode never not being interesting with awesome action in the middle. Lastly, some face CGI (not specifying not spoil anything) is a little iffy nut the scenes that surround it are great, Overall 9.5/10.

Episode 3 of kenobi is incredibly good, they are starting to flesh out characters better, amazing pacing (a slower start that speeds up very well), and so many awesome things I can't get into without spoilers 9.5/10 also is dinsey starting to humanize stormtroopers a little bit?!?

So boba fett episode 1 just released and from start to finish its... ok. The best parts of the show (of course) being the action. This episode feels more like a setup than a actual mandalorian-esque episode. Though even the action scenes (for lack of a better word) feel silly. There are some scenes where the character's faces just look off, something about them isn't right. There's also no crazy grogu-esque character or plot-point reveal like Mando (not that they needed one, it something similar would be great to raise this episode up to a higher standard). This episode is definitely shaping big character reveals in the future. This show has potential and with the right execution definitely can meet or exceed the high bar set by The Mandalorian. My last point is the shotty CGI (I don't know what to call it other than that), especially with enemy design (mainly the "surprise" at the end of the episode). This show also feels very nostalgia-bound, with many cuts and settings feeling like they come straught out of the 1977 original. This could be a problem in the future if the show is too bound on nostalgia than the actual plot.

Overall: Pros Great set-up episode with many plot points to explore.

Shows the shows potential Good Action Cons Wacky CGI/action.

Not many interesting developments Doesn't feel like a full episode 6.7/10.
