So when can we expect the first bit of scenery from you? 

[OSHIROmodels]

 

June 5th?

Looking forward to it.

This looks like it could be interesting! I’ll be sure to check it out, hope this is an Andor, and not another Obi-wan

June 5th?

Not May the fourth ?

Not a massive amount to go on but looks ok so far...looks like it might be set a while before the movies (not heard anything about it).

There is already a Wikipedia page about it - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Acolyte_(TV_series), although it doesn't add much.

Hopefully there will be more details supplied in the next couple of months.

Intruiging, but something I can't put my finger on is making me feel off towards this one. I hope I'm wrong and it's the quality of Mando.

All the details I could find out.

• Set 100 years before 'The Phantom Menace'
• Didn't use The Volume VFX at all during filming
• Narratively similar to Andor
• 8 episodes
• Episodes around 30 min
• Pitched as a multi-season show
• Incorporates EU / Legends lore

Well all of that sounds promising to me! I’m cautiously excited about this one

Also, we've got Star Wars: Skeleton Crew due out this year as well.

Yet to see any of the TV series but I just checked and the total episodes for all of them combined exceeds 600.  That is a lot of TV.  That includes the animated ones, about half.  Like the movies, not sure I want to delve too deep into the TV stuff.  And I wonder, where is the saturation point of diminishing returns. 

If I were to watch some of the live action, which series best represents the movies in quality of content, especially the original trilogy?

And I wonder, where is the saturation point of diminishing returns. 

My thoughts too.  Out of all of the new stuff, the only series I was really keen on was Andor.
