Before I dive into the review, I wanted to offer some kudos to Dave Filoni for that episode title. “The Jedi, the Witch, and the Warlord” absolutely made me chuckle. And, as I thought more about it, there were plenty of parallels to be found between this episode of Ahsoka and The Lion, the Witch, […]
There are two ways to structure a penultimate episode of a serialized series.* The first has the series’s climactic moment happen, allowing the characters the chance to breathe a bit and deal with the fallout in the finale. Think the final three episodes of Breaking Bad, where the climax of the series happened in the […]
Deus ex Purrgil. That was my immediate thought as soon as Ahsoka returned from Jedi Purgatory (also known as the World Between Worlds, although this felt more like a test of her abilities than a portal through time like in Rebels) – how fortunate for her and the rest of her crew that a pod […]

Well, that was a rather staid and uneventful season premiere, wasn’t it? Or, at least it was if you had dutifully watched all of The Book of Boba Fett and knew what transpired between little Grogu, Luke Skywalker, Ashoka Tano, and Din Djarin during the three episodes within that series that served as a season […]
I’ve said time and again in my season finale reviews that a good finale doesn’t offer up a million twists and turns – it should take the story to the natural conclusion the preceding episodes have hinted at. And if that’s how one judges a finale, “In the Name of Honor” was a pretty solid […]
