Honestly, I have no patience anymore for the entitled Star Wars fans, the ones who think everything Star Wars should be things they specifically want and nothing else. Bad news for you dudes - your time is over and it's only gonna get worse for you. This cartoon is not OT focused. Many of the new movies and TV shows will not be OT focused. There will be TONS of new Disney Star Wars characters introduced in the coming years. And you know what? That's OK. You might even accidentally like some of it.
I feel like I'm getting beat up a bit in here, but it's all good. I read some of the other comments across the boards and if I'm the worst curmudgeon JD has, then things here aren't so bad...
I have given every new thing Disney has thrown at us a fair shake. Some I like, some I don't. I am guilty of having the same "OT Man-Crush" you profess to, Jeff, of course.
Maybe I am feeling oversaturation fatigue? I dunno.
At the end of the day I have no problem with the show that I haven't seen except I honestly don't get how its pitch wins out over OT goodness. Of course I will give it a shot, just as I did Clone Wars and Rebels (neither one stuck for me, but that's taste for you.) I love Star Wars stuff, even the goofy awful stuff (Okay, sometimes I like the goofy stuff even more than the straight stuff.)
