Season 1 Review: Star Wars Resistance is a promising start to a new, high-flying adventure shepherded by the talented Filoni and his team, and it’s one that I hope long-standing fans and a new generation of Resistance fighters alike will come to love. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The Star Wars Resistance premiere is a fun watch, and as good a reason as any to tune into Disney late on a Sunday night. Where it goes from there, we’ll just have to wait and see. Read full review

Season 1 Review: In the past, Star Wars has only ever given us brief glimpses of what it’s like to pass through any given hive of scum and villainy (even one that’s been sanitized for kids’ TV). Resistance seems ready to give the little guy his shot, and for a franchise that’s always loved an underdog, it’s an idea that arrives with a lot of force. Read full review

Season 1 Review: It’s an entertaining enough hour for kids — my 8-year-old was spellbound — but whether it attracts adult viewers as “Rebels” and “Clone Wars” did probably depends on how the show’s serialized story develops. Read full review

Season 1 Review: While this new show has its moments, unlike the earlier animated series, it doesn’t appear that the apex of the “Star Wars” lies along the path of “Resistance.” Read full review

I had the impression this show was mainly aimed at kids, and not very well-liked in general, so I was surprised to find I actually enjoyed it. I like the small scale and focus on one station, the lack of epic conflicts and Jedi. Unlike with Rebels, the stormtroopers actually seem menacingI had the impression this show was mainly aimed at kids, and not very well-liked in general, so I was surprised to find I actually enjoyed it. I like the small scale and focus on one station, the lack of epic conflicts and Jedi. Unlike with Rebels, the stormtroopers actually seem menacing instead of just hapless cannon fodder. It paints a convincing picture of what it's like for one small corner of the galaxy to live under the looming tyranny of the First Order. I prefer it to all the sequel era movies.

It's also quite funny, in a "bad things keep happening to the protagonist, because he is a massive douche" kind of way. Admittedly some people might find that sort of thing annoying, if you are one of those people then I'd advise against watching it.… Expand

Great show for watching with the younger kids. Explains a few things between the sequals. All in all a good experience.

These Star Wars Shows just keep getting better despite how small in scale they have become.

Clone wars was great, rebels was great but it seems like Disney lost its sense for great stories. I don't like it....sorry.

I understand that this series is meant for kids, but this series is no where near the quality of The Clone Wars or even Rebels. In fact, it's just a bad show. Shallow characters, shallow plot, and an inferior art style.

This show is deeply flawed. It feels like a show for four year olds that no four year old will watch. The characters are annoying and unlikeable and the overall setting is bland and repetitive. It lacks any semblance to the sheer creative force of any other Star Wars movie or TV show. ItThis show is deeply flawed. It feels like a show for four year olds that no four year old will watch. The characters are annoying and unlikeable and the overall setting is bland and repetitive. It lacks any semblance to the sheer creative force of any other Star Wars movie or TV show. It goes nowhere narratively, there's no exploration of other planets, no sense of real stakes, and characters that begin to rival Jar Jar Binks in terms of their appeal to infants. The main characters are like nails on a chalkboard in just about every way. I can't see anyone liking this, young or old. A total failure.… Expand
