Man... I have LOVED this show so far. Keeping it short for now but I feel like this is the Star Wars series I've been waiting for 22 years+ (since Lucas first said he wanted to make a Sopranos-like show). I've loved the 'slower' pacing, and the fact that it took until episode 7 for us to even seen a Stormtrooper.
And yeah, I was very excited by Yularen. The wife was confused by why I was randomly so excited by some old white dude, but she knows who I am by now, and she has loved the show so far too. I am very excited to see where this goes over the next 5 episodes + next season.
