Critical Drinker is being unnecessarily harsh, because that's his schtick. Ashoka isn't OG Justified or Season 1 of GoT, but it's a good show that is so far fun to watch.
Rosario is doing a good job portraying a character that has been fighting wars since literally puberty and seen everything she cared about destroyed, and the Rebellion failing to live up to it's promise in real time.
I disagree.
The first two episodes of
Ahsoka have been marred by a plodding pace, wooden acting, and plot twists that don't make sense (the captain allowing the Sith wannabes to board his ship, for example).
There was a particularly cringeworthy moment when Hera did her "I'm a general so I can do what I want" bit at the shipyard, which reminded me of Holdo from
The Last Jedi. The strong-female-character-humiliates-male-character trope has been a staple of most everything KK has touched, including the latest Indiana Jones flick, and it is tiresome.
Sabine Wren is a quite different, and less interesting, version of what she was in
Rebels, and has become too Mary Sue-ish. (speaking of
Rebels, the show seems to assume that the audience has already seen that series, which IMO is a mistake. The story should be more self-contained.)
So far,
Ahsoka isn't as bad as
Boba Fett,
Kenobi, or season 3 of
The Mandalorian, but it could have been a lot better.
