@@darklorddysart All of those are completely valid reasons. My issue and only issue is this is a Disney property. Not George Lucas, not Netflix, Not MGM Amazon, not HBO. I would have more excitement if any other studio were producing this show. Disney has lost my faith. They have put out so much crap in such a short period of time that it's clear they don't know what they are doing. Just look at all of the awards shows as an example. Hulu: The Bear, Only Murders in the building, Shogun, HBO: so many it's pointless to list, Netflix: Blue Eyed Samurai, Stranger Things, Amazon Prime: Invincible, The Boys, Reacher. Disney is the worst streamer for original content. X-Men 97 is the best thing Disney+ has created so far. I am sorry for the long comment.

I've got a bad feeling about this....

I don't understand why they can't learn this lesson. When I think of premium TV I think of episodes being 50+ minutes. Star Wars used to be the premium of all premium brands..but it's not at all being treated that way. I understand it's difficult to make shows with the quality and scale of HotD, Last of Us, Shogun, etc...but it's not difficult to try. And they're not even trying. There has never been a more obvious thing to do than try to make a Game of Thrones type of show in the SW world...yet they for some reason refuse.

a very wishy washy, spineless 30 to 35 minutes run time. And a very indecisive 40 to 45 minutes season finale. can’t even commit to a hard 30 minute runtime like X-Men. in and out. that’s the deal

30-35 minute runtime is the total. Take away intro & overly long Disney+ credits & you're looking at episodes that are 22-27 minutes long.

Star Wars was heavily influenced by movie serials from back in the day which were short and often ended with a cliff hanger...If they were trying to model this I could see how it would made sense - however they clearly aren't. And they have had enough time to realize that this isn't working. They should have moved on to a more traditional 50- 60 min format by now.

The fact that the showrunner isn't clear on the actual runtimes makes this all suspect. Also that time may not include credits, so it could be 30-35/40 minutes before credits. I think the criticisms of past shows are valid and has more to do with Disney not using actual traditional TV showrunners than it does run times. You can tell a tight compelling story in 30 minutes. They do it on the animation side all the time. Bad Batch, Rebels, Clone Wars are all 22-24 minute runtimes (Bad Batch does go longer at times) but they tell a finite story in that time. It can be done. I'd rather have a tight 35 minutes than a meandering 50 minutes.

It’s almost as if Disney bought Star Wars just for tax write off purposes!

I agree. Shows are different than movies where you can say “it’s just as long as it needs to be”, especially primetime shows like John mentions. Most of the best dramas of the last 20 years have 45-60 min runtime episodes. The shift by D+ to this format over the last 5 years is something that clearly doesn’t produce the same product. Kenobi and Moon Knight are the prime examples of D+ shows that have been almost mortally crippled by the episode lengths

The people at Lucasfilm are being forced to announce stuff (content) that never gets made. It is all PR to keep the interest of customers in their IP. When they are called to task to actually produce something, they rush out to release whatever they have, regardless of its quality or how their product is going to affect the IP in the long run. Short sightedness and greed does not make great art. It makes get rich quick schemes. Disney mandates Lucasfilm to put out products to sell Disney+ subscriptions and not because they have an interesting story to tell.

I remember going into Kenobi being very excited and was disappointed that the series has no story. Why do we need another Obi-Wan/Darth Vader encounter?

@@bdubberz She does though. When asked she said they range from 30-35 minutes, and that the finale was around 40 minutes.

One of the best episodes of the mandalorian (introduction of boba Fett) was 29 minutes - I don’t see an issue with this. As long as it’s good then I’m happy. Plus I rarely have time to watch a 60 minute plus ep so this works for me :) haha

Great example. That episode was fantastic because it got to the point.
