E

All six episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi are now done (we know, boo!) so we're diving into each episode and the series as a whole to give you our thoughts on arguably the most important Star Wars series to land on Disney+ so far. Lightsabers ready? Let's go. The news stories from around the galaxy that we discussed on this episode...Spark of Rebellion - A Star Wars Show on Twitter: "Hello there! Calling all #StarWars and #ObiWan fans! We're doing our full series review this week and we'd love your thoughts so throw over your mini-reviews and scores, we'll read them out on the show! Thank you. https://t.co/abd6Pgy95l" / TwitterDanny Brown (not the rapper) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇨🇦 on Twitter: "@rebellion_spark A great show for fans and non-fans alike - both can enjoy whether they get the references and Easter eggs or not. Some pacing/script issues here and there, but insignificant next to the power of the Force. A great ensemble cast was the icing on the cake. 8/10" / TwitterDrew Toynbee on Twitter: "@rebellion_spark For the fans Overall score: 4/5 Some clunky bits, particularly in earlier episodes, but final two really brought it together. Ultimately this show just adds colour and depth to Obi-Wan and his feelings about Ani. Maybe not "necessary" but for FANS, emotional and thrilling" / TwitterJason Stevens on Twitter: "@MrAsquith @ChrisDucker @KieranMcKeef @MikeMIMO @PascalFintoni @DrewToynbee @GarryAylott @rebellion_spark 1/2 It would seem that Obiwan will get his Mojo back and flogg the black control board off of Darth Vader. Remember Vaders words, it will be tied into what happens when the final ‘meet’ (obvs lightsaber duel) happens." / TwitterAndy Henry on Twitter: "@MrAsquith @ChrisDucker @KieranMcKeef @MikeMIMO @PascalFintoni @DrewToynbee @GarryAylott @rebellion_spark Hopefully a podrace or two" / TwitterChris Ducker on Twitter: "@AndyLeeHenry @MrAsquith @KieranMcKeef @MikeMIMO @PascalFintoni @DrewToynbee @GarryAylott @rebellion_spark Hello there…. 😂" / TwitterMike Morrison on Twitter: "@MrAsquith @ChrisDucker @KieranMcKeef @PascalFintoni @DrewToynbee @GarryAylott @rebellion_spark Definitely getting a Qui-Gon cameo https://t.co/k4UVgtX4VJ" / TwitterMark Asquith, That British Podcast Guy on Twitter: "Right #StarWars fans, hit me with your #ObiWan predictions for the finale.
