Warning: Star Wars Detours Trailer May Cause Heavy Sighing
That new Star Wars TV show is starting finally! No, not the live-action one. No, not that other one with the seedy underbelly of Coruscant. The one from the Robot Chicken guys! But CGI! Remember that one? …No? Oh. Well, here’s the trailer for it. Honestly, I’m sure kids will eat this comedy up and enjoy this more than I ever will – because I’m not the target audience, clearly. But it just looks so average, with nothing really new brought to the table. Many of these Star Wars jokes have simply been done to death. Oh well, at least Seth MacFarlane seems to still be doing a good job as the Emperor.
What a bizarre mish-mash of timelines and stories, too! Some characters are kids, some are adults, and Obi-Wan is only sometimes dead. Huh? Maybe the show follows the storyline in some sort of odd fashion, but it’s simply strange to see an adult Han Solo and a child version of Leia.
