Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures: Meet The Young Jedi "Meet The Young Jedi"
I don't like it being set in the days of Yoda before the Jedi fell. Casts a pall on the proceedings.
It's cute and all but I predict it will wind up being as badly written as Muppet Babies and Spidey And His Amazing Friends. Some Disney preschool shows become Elena Of Avalor. Most of them are not cut out for that. Predict that's this show's fate.
Is Nubs an Ewok? Continuity "Whaaa?!"!"
Eh. **1/2.
Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures: Meet The Young Jedi "Nubs And The Flower Fiasco"
Star Wars just gave me diabetes. That is NOT a good sign. Playing a dangerous game here, Lucasfilm. *.
Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures: Meet The Young Jedi "Kai's Daring Droid Rescue"
All I can think of during this entire cartoon is that cretinous little stinker Yoda is eventually gonna get this sweet young kid killed because of his idiot advice. I am not loving the subtext to this show. At all. Yoda is the freaking worst. *.
Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures: Meet The Young Jedi "Lys' Creature Caper"
Random thoughts:
This is the first preschool show with the word "Wars" in the title. Yeah, maybe not such a hot premise for this.
I can already tell this is going to be a badly written mess / trainwreck on the level of Spidey And His Amazing Friends. The one saving grave is that it's possible the characters won't be as unendingly annoying. Now it's possible they WILL be. But we haven't yet met characters that bad in these shorts.
Unless you count Yoda, which nobody else does (but yes, I DO). **1/2.
Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures: Meet The Young Jedi "Nash's Firehawk Frenzy"
There they are! There are the speculated upon but previously unseen annoyingly obnoxious characters who are going to ruin the show! Yeah, this show is gonna suck.
Also, I'll easily accept toddler Jedi. Grogu has me tolerant there. But toddler starship pilots? Give me a freaking break. *.
Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures: Meet The Young Jedi "Taborr's Pirate Showdown"
In hindsight, it is amazing to me the huge amount of unjustified leeway and unearned benefit of the doubt I gave the early episodes of Spidey And His Amazing Friends. Won't be making that same mistake here.
This show is straight-up bad. It worsens the Star Wars saga for existing. Maybe it wouldn't if it were out of continuity the way the Spidey show is from the rest of the Marvel Universe, but Disney insisting that nearly EVERY single Star Wars project besides the Lego stuff "counts" means this crap is actually making the canon weaker. I felt a similar level of disgust over what Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy was dragging the Aligned Continuity down with each week, but as bad as this show is so far, I must confess it's not as bad as Rescue Bots Academy. Still I wish like hell something this bad was unofficial. It really should be. *.
