Order 66 seems to have caught up to any and all co-hosts. Transmissions from the Jedi Temple revealed too many in hiding and now, Steve is going "solo" for the newest Disney Plus Star Wars series.
Obi-wan Kenobi debuts Friday, May 27th, 2022 with TWO episodes of the six episode limited run. Well, it's limited until Kathleen Kennedy and LucasFilm says it's not, right? This show could be a huge success and we've already heard Ewan McGregor say he'd love to give the 'ol space wizard another crack. What stories could they tell after this one? Who knows? Would it matter? It hasn't even started airing and I think fans would sign off on another story.
Speaking of fans, today, May 26th, 2022 is the start of Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim. This preview takes place BEFORE any news gets revealed on the main stage at "the con" so the podcast you'll listen to here is less speculation and news and more "what kinds of things do we think could happen?" and "will Disney screw this one up?" so set your expectations accordingly.
Are you excited? Your host Steve Loscalzo certainly is excited. This won't even be the last series set in the Star Wars galaxy this calendar year, but at six episodes, it feels like it has already gone too fast. Deborah Chow, we're counting on you to run this show right. We know writers have changed, plot points expanded, characters have been created, and friends have reunited, even if only in battle. We don't need Mandalorians to enjoy Star Wars, even if it has helped. Show us magic can still happen and show us a story that feels like it already is a part of the ones we have known and loved for 45 years.
