I am talking this without KK or the Wokies under her control. This is what could be.
Been thinking on {The Mandalorian}, in truth it is over and no need for that story to continue. In fact I would say it would be excellent if it did not, we had the story, the plot, the goal and the ending.
Along the way we had set-ups for the continuation of “Stories in the Star Wars Universe” introduced to the nonserious fans as feelers to see which ones took and which did not. Watching Social media it is clear that several resonated with the general audience:
Ahsoka
Bo Katana
Thrawn
Boba Fett
Luke Skywalker
If Lucas Film had half a brain they would start with Boba and Bo Katana as a pure stand alone shows not getting involved at all with the main Star Wars shows which would be Ahsoka and Thrawn.
The Mandalorian plot with Bo Katana and her struggles and triumphs would make for at least 2 to 4 seasons as would Bobba, with his adventures. Done right they could be 16 episodes for each season having one in fall and winter and one in Spring and summer. Toss in some Bad Batch and it’s a year of Star Wars or should I say Four Years.
During this time, we could have Thrawn done, I keep thinking it needs to be done in Game of Thrones 1 hour episodes, lets face it Thrawn was not about battles but his manipulation and workings. He was also not a “bad guy” certainly no Imperial in the normal way <trying to be spoiler freeish>. We could get 2 seasons of backstory on Thrawn and then 3 seasons with Him as an Imperial maybe 4.
Ahsoka, I think could be 3 seasons intertwined with Thrawns last 2 season and then possibly tying back in to Luke which would be 7 seasons. All in All in the time line this could with a few leaps take us to 15ABY
One thing I have always hated was tv series that go on to long, Mando is done, now let’s get the others going, there are after-all plenty of stories to do and raw from and they do not need to be long or drawn out. This new 10 show per season format actually is annoying to me, I like the old long seasons when good stories could be told. There is no reason we cannot have that with these shows.
Let me leave you with this… I am talking this without KK or the Wokies under her control. This is what could be.
