Ever since Disney acquired LucasArts, there has been a persistent debate among long-time Star Wars enthusiasts. Many fans from the old guard argue that the galaxy far, far away isn’t what it used to be. Some say that character development has waned, others lament lore changes, and a few assert that there’s an overemphasis on quantity over quality. Despite these grievances, Disney+ hosts a few hidden gems in the Star Wars universe that should not be overlooked. These are the diamonds in the rough that could reignite the spark for even the most skeptical fans.
From what I’ve explored and read, several series on Disney’s streaming platform stand out as must-watches. It begs the question: Which Star Wars series on Disney+ truly shines? Which one manages to capture the essence of the beloved franchise? Could it be the revolutionary “Andor,” the nostalgic “Obi-Wan Kenobi,” or the intriguing upcoming “The Acolyte”?
A dedicated fan weighed in on the discussion, stating, “Andor. Hands down. No doubt about it. Andor brought such a unique perspective of the Star Wars universe, like we’ve never seen. As fans, we all know the Empire is bad and capable of horrible things, but Andor puts you on the ground and really gives you a viewpoint of the Empire in a horrifyingly intimate way. It really exposes the underbelly of the everyday fight and struggle of the galaxy. It’s not about a Jedi, it’s not about a Sith Lord, it’s about the people of the galaxy, and that was such a great narrative that we don’t get as Star Wars fans very much. Love it.” This perspective sheds light on the show’s unique narrative, focusing more on the everyday lives affected by the Empire’s reign, a fresh take that distinguishes it from other entries.
Another viewer praised “Obi-Wan Kenobi,” highlighting its compelling story and exceptional execution. The series brings back the beloved character, adding layers to his already rich story arc while maintaining the nostalgic elements that long-time fans appreciate.
