    I tried watching it, but since after 2 episodes still nothing had happened, I stopped and went to watch a movie.

    Which is about the same length as those 2 episodes, but actually had a begin, middle, and end.

    It might be good, but I will never know since the slow start is so off putting.

      1. Its incredibly good.

      2. A chunk of the episodes in the two seasons are practically dead air.

      I’m still flip flopping on whether the slow pacing of some of the episodes was intentional (whether to try to build suspense or to hammer home a Lenin attributed quote about “decades where nothing happens and there are weeks where decades happen”) or some wonkyness with trying to figure out the proper ‘fit’ of story and dialogue in an episode.

      You gave up 2/3 of the way through the first story arc. With the 3rd episode it clocks in at about 2 hours, there’s your movie.

      You stopped the movie a little over halfway through, what did you expect?

        If the movie is boring, I will stop it halfway through.

        Did the same with Twilight when I gave that a shot.

      I’ve watched the first 3, maybe 4, episodes. Still have no idea what it’s about, just couldn’t grab my attention. Which is a shame, I’m sure it’s great Star Wars content.

      BTW, never express any opinion about this except full-throated, roaring approval.

        Keep going, the beginning of the season was mid but the end is golden. Motherfuckering show had me crying at the end
