Can't say enough about how absolutely I love this show - the production design, the acting, the direction are all worth the money Disney spent on it. The skill and complexity with which aspects of a rebellion are dramatized on screen is so enjoyable to watch. l loved the scenes of the rebels stranded on Yavin, but also the scenes with Saw Gerrera. The ways in which rebels engage with rebellion is different for each group we are introduced to, and I am hopeful that the last three episodes dramatize how these separate groups slowly come together to fight the empire.
And I love the way Peter, Sonny and Alyssa talked about the show rhyming with current politics, but not being a one-for-one transposition. Mon Mothma's speech and escape from the Senate building for instance, are good examples of scenes where the show is able to generate a large amount of emotional impact by playing with these political themes.
I was hoping you would cover this show in the podcast - so happy that you did!
