May 31, 2022For the first two episodes i think it was ok. I hope that the last four episodes will get better.

Jun 6, 2022I didn't know the series had started until the controversy. I'm so happy now because I have binge watched 3 episodes. Not all characters are likeable but that is normal in any story. This FEELS like an old school Star Wars movie and I'm here for it. I still remember going to the theater at the age of 7 and watching the first one on the big screen. I'm all in.

Jun 14, 2022Aside from some weird logic and shaky cinematography, Obi-Wan Kenobi is narratively strong, bolstered by great performances and the quality special effects one has come to expect from Lucasfilm.

Jun 2, 2022I thought it was great, 7.5-8.0/10 based on the first three episodes, with room for improvement. Ignore the Metacritic trolls; the critics have this about right.
-
Jun 3, 2022I really enjoy the this far. It shows you a broken man long after his glory. He’s lost everything, his eyes are on one goal. Yet gets pulled out of that roll for the possible better future.
-
Jun 3, 2022Love seeing the old cast as well as all the new faces. Shoutout to the art department for the amazing sets and costuming. Really enjoying it!
-
Jun 3, 2022Hello there! Great show so far, great characters and actors, in my opinion this is the best star wars mini series to date.
-
Jun 2, 2022Strong acting helps to elevate a fairly generic story. The action scenes will hopefully improve as the episodes progresses as they are the weakest parts.
-
Jun 3, 2022Well acted and wonderfully casted. Obi Wan hits all the marks for real Star Wars fans.
-
Jun 3, 2022I am loving this show! Can't wait for the next episode. Showing the effect that Anakin's falling to the dark side has on Obi is great. We get to see that not only Anakin was affected but so was Obi. We can sense his guilt at failing Anakin.
-
Jun 3, 2022Everything I was hoping for in Star Wars series about Kenobi! Highly recommended if you are true fan of Star Wars and the Prequel movies and characters.

Jun 3, 2022Don't listen to the trolls. The series is great. Much better Star Wars story than the new movies. It makes me feel like a kid again/
-
Jun 3, 2022Don’t let the Fandom Menace fool you into thinking this show is no good. It’s a masterpiece that isn’t pushing any agenda or ideals like other SW properties have been accused of.
The only controversy associated with this series is the viewership that call themselves SW fans, and push their own agenda instead of enjoying a great show. -
Jun 3, 2022Honestly this show has been bomb as **** Me and My dad are both star wars fans and we’re both loving it, in fact I even dare say it’s fixed mine and his relationship.
-
Jun 3, 2022Great Show!!! Looking forward to future episodes!!! Loving all these different Star Wars shows! Really looking forward to the continuation of Star Wars Rebels with the Ahsoka series!!

Jun 3, 2022OMG!!! This show is amazing I love the way that vader is portrayed and Reva is a badass
-
Jun 3, 2022This show is amazing! Granted I am a Star Wars geek but it re-fueled my passion for the fandom. Ewan McGregor and the rest of the cast is phenomenal. I also think Moses Ingram, a new addition to the Star Wars Universe is a great actor! Thak You for this incredible series!
-
Jun 3, 2022The negative reviews are just fake accounts that are mad about what was said. This show is the BEST!
-
Jun 3, 2022Really enjoying the cast and all the new lore being added! Great to see such classic Star Wars being made awesome.

Jun 3, 2022By far the best Star Wars show so far. Ewan is brilliant as always and the tone is much darker than anything since ROTS.
-
Jun 3, 2022This show is incredible. It’s even easier to rewatch than Mandalorian - which at the time was the best recent thing Star Wars had released. The releases keep getting better and it’s clear the future of Star Wars is TV
-
Jun 3, 2022Honestly, a series I always wanted, to see how broken Kenobi became to be Ben. It has everything needed for nostalgia of the prequels that I grew up with.
-
Jun 3, 2022It’s great to see what “Ben” was doing while Luke was growing up. I’m 3 episodes in and can’t wait for the second half.
-
Jun 3, 2022First 2 episodes where everything a true starwars fan could hope for in a Lenovo tv series
-
Jun 3, 2022This show is amazing. It’s great to see my favorite Jedi back in action. Plus the rest of the cast is great. Highly recommended

Jun 3, 2022Everything I was hoping for and more! The casting is top notch, Ewan McGregor steps right back into the role of Obi-Wan as if he never left. I'm excited to see how the rest of the season plays out.
-

Jun 3, 2022Perhaps the best Star Wars release since Disney purchased the rights. The casting is excellent and the story is incredibly tense and exciting. I watched the first episode and immediately went back and watched all of the movies out of sheer excitement. The cast is excellent and the show is on course to be far better than even The Mandalorian was.

Jun 3, 2022Sooo good! Don’t let the haters who are talking about racism get the show down. If you love Star Wars then you are going to love this show.
-
Jun 3, 2022So far I love it! Won’t go into any details as I myself like it best when knowing as little as possible. But it’s awesome!

Jun 3, 2022Love love love this show!!! The characters, nostalgia, and story are just fantastic! 10/10
-
Jun 3, 2022I am so pleased with what they're doing in this series. Easily some of the best Star Wars content. I'm glad the prequels are getting some love, and I'm so happy they finally brought back the original actors and gave them scripts they can shine with. Must see for any star wars fan!
-
Jun 3, 2022el mejor producto de star wars desde la compra de disney, es una carta de amor a los fans
-
Jun 3, 2022Excellent series so far. Plenty of unexpected twists and definitely going a direction I was not expecting.
-
Jun 4, 2022It's perfection. Think of the time before and the time ahead, he is exactly who he is supposed to be. We may feel sorry for Ben but this is his role in the larger scheme of things. The tone is perfect, and the contrast between Ben and Vader makes it so fun to watch.
-
Jun 4, 2022The reconnect with the previous films, long missed characters & the great casting have won me over. Add in the great effects and (so far, epi 3) interesting story - i'm glad this isn't as poor as boba fett became.
-
Jun 4, 2022Very decently done. It's great to see that Stars Wars is trying very earnestly to do right by their true fans by giving us something that we've wanted to see for a while. I just hope that this is the end of them relying on characters that we already know the ending for and their future stories will involve new characters.
-
Jun 4, 2022Seeing Ewan back as Obi-Wan and along side Vader is everything I wanted! Amazing addition
-
Jun 7, 2022It’s amazing seeing characters and actors we’ve not seen for years reprise there rolls in a series showing us a time which fans have been wondering about for years

Jun 3, 2022Im loving it! Absolutely beautiful, this is pure gold… Vader is terrifying
-
Jun 3, 2022Great show! It has done justice and picked up where clone wars left off. The show is great.
-
May 27, 2022Very good, the acting of the main characters is good and lived up to expectations so far. Cant wait to see what they do for the rest of the series.
-
Jun 6, 2022I do not understand the backslash. In my opinion it is a good series so far. Explores human nature and emotions. It is a journey for Obi-Wan to find himself again. It is a different approach but why would it automatically be bad? I enjoy that slow burning narration and I am looking forward to new episodes.
-
Jun 4, 2022Great show. Characters are perfect. Episode 3 is epic. Can’t wait for the rest of the show.
-
Jun 4, 2022Such a great show! Don’t be a racist! Bunch of sore losers that have to bring in stupid stuff because the color of someone’s skin.
-
Jun 4, 2022I was skeptical at first but the 3rd episode really won me over. Loving this peek at this part of the Skywalker saga timeline. Young Leia delivers many of her lines like a sassy young Carrie Fisher might. And I need to know more about the Third Sister!
-
Jun 7, 2022This is where the fun begins :)
Because of obi wan :)
i love democracy :D -
Jun 4, 2022This is a really good show. You should watch it. I have enjoyed it immensely.
-
Jun 4, 2022Disney+ Stat Wars shows are killing it. This show already kicks so much ass. Famdon Menace is terrible.
-
Jun 4, 2022Three episodes in and I'm absolutely blown away. The returning and new cast members do a stunning job, with a sharp script, wonderful music and locations. I thoroughly enjoyed The Mandolorian, and The Book of Boba, but Kenobi has been my favourite series yet.
-
Jun 4, 2022Absolutely perfect. There’s a lot. Of hate for this show. But deal with it
-
Jun 4, 2022Really enjoying so far, great to see lots of Easter eggs. Cast is very good
-
Jun 4, 2022No spoilers here. Great to see what happens after the end of the 6th movie.
-
Jun 6, 2022Extremely promising start, very curious to see where they go with it. Obvious nuggets reward a lifelong star wars fan.

Jun 3, 2022Incredible, vader is awesome, obiwan is awesome leia it's amazing. James earl Jones hayden !
-
Jun 3, 2022It's a moving exploration of Obi-Wan's trauma anchored by an amazing performance from Ewan McGregor. This is why Star Wars fans wanted an Obi-Wan show so much. We knew it was a recipe for something meaningful.
-
Jun 3, 2022I love Star Wars. And as a FAN, I have been waiting for more Kenobi. I've not been disappointed. Brilliant!
-
Jun 4, 2022Best piece of Star Wars content to have been released in the past 15 years, maybe on par with Rogue One. Don’t be racist. Reva’s character is totally fine.
-
May 29, 2022Ewan was great. I am hopeful for where it might go, but also fearful that it might add in spykids stylized speeder gangs.
-
Jun 4, 2022At the halfway point, I am finding very little about this series not to love.
-
Jun 4, 2022Absolutely love and enjoy what they are doing with this series, cant wait to see more!!

-
Jun 3, 2022Unreal show, best Star Wars series by Disney! Doesn’t get enough love, #1 show on disney plus
-
Jun 3, 2022This is quickly becoming the best star wars series so far. For the first time we have a strong, powerful female character that exists for more than male gratification. Star wars is FINALLY allowing people that are not white men into the spotlight, let's hope it continues.
-
Jun 3, 2022Amazing series, one of the best Star Wars Content out there, really hoping for a second season because this show is brilliant

Awards & Rankings
-
Obi-Wan had a larger problem: It was dumb as a rock. Simple rules of spatial logic went out the window. Main characters kept almost killing each other, and then walking away long enough for their wounded opponent could recover.
-
McGregor is wholly up to the challenge of shouldering the emotional weight of this series, which feels less like a cynical cash grab (despite being that) than a natural continuation of the saga that Lucas crafted more than two decades ago.
-
Ewan McGregor was last seen as Obi-Wan, he brings more depth, more of a world-weary wisdom to the role. ... As is the case with many a “Star Wars” title, the dialogue sometimes borders on the corny, but director Deborah Chow (“The Mandalorian”) has a keen sense of pacing and a distinct visual style that holds our interest even in the quieter moments. “Obi-Wan Kenobi” is off to a roaring start.
