Anyone watch it yet? I am still processing it. I don’t know if I liked it or not.

Thoughts and spoilers here

I was expecting more closure

Zillo beast was just in this whole series as a plot point to allow Omega to escape?
Rex and his crew had no resolution
Time jump with Omega in the Rebellion and literally no mention of her anywhere else?
What happened to Cody?
Why was Scorch done so dirty as a glorified name drop, he would’ve been covering their rear to make sure no one snuck up on them
Nothing about any of Tantiss’s other potential secrets
The clones didn’t have resolution. They’re just scattered across Pabu and Pantora?
The brain washed/mind controlled clones were cool but ultimately useless and easily defeated after spending all previous encounters handing everyone’s asses to them
Bunch of force sensitive kids out now to be discovered by Luke? Hunted by Vader?
Assaj was just there to tell us Omega was force sensitive? They could’ve used anyone to reveal this
Will Omega show up in Skeleton Crew or the crossover movie/show?

I liked it, overall.

But I agree there are parts that felt a bit flat. I was rather surprised and excited about how Cowboy Dave was retconning the utter stupidity of ep 9...

explicit finale spoilers....

until the data banks were destroyed, the Empire seeming not following the 3 2 1 rule - shout out !selfhosted@lemmy.world - so the question of how the fuck we ended up with thousands of Palpatine clones is still a mystery box of shit writing.

I'm expecting the final scene was to set up crossovers within other Dave-led productions, I'd presume time jump to Adult Omega is around the time of Rebels (5BBY, give or take), but how any of that will line up is beyond my best guess.

Ultimately, I'm going to miss this particular view in to the SW galaxy.
