Ahsoka Tano, former Jedi knight investigates threat imminent to the young New Republic, because rumors continue that legendary Imperial Grand Admiral Thrawn is not dead and is coming back. Rosario Dawson is excellent as Ahsoka Tano but many will not recognize characters of Sabine Wren or Ezra Bridger if they didn’t watch Star Wars Rebels animated series because this one I consider real continuation of that series. Action in these eight episodes is satisfiable, characters written good and I love Lars Mikkelsen as Thrawn, also unfortunately late Ray Stevenson was brilliant as new character, fallen Jedi Baylan Skoll. Finale of the first season was also good and decently done, so we can expect season two some time in the future. Thrawn and his Night Troopers are enigmatic and charismatic enough as villains to carry the series also the witches of Dathomir, Night Sisters were done superb. I don’t want to spoil the story to someone who didn’t watch it yet, but it connects many dots in SW expanded universum with Anakin Skywalker appearing, so I enjoyed this one very much. There are no filler episodes.

Conclusion: 8 / 10 axes Eight episodes left me wishing for more.
