Season 1 Review: Obi-Wan Kenobi feels less like a major disturbance in the force than just more Disney+ content churned out to keep subscriber numbers up. McGregor brings tremendous depth and empathy as Kenobi and the show is worth staying with for him alone. ... For now, Obi-Wan is watchable but nothing more. Read full review
