6. Gen-X Reviews - Star Wars: Tales of The Empire Episodes 1-3
Welcome to Gen X Reverb! I'm your host, Bradley Gaines, and today we're journeying to a galaxy far, far away with an in-depth review of the new series 'Star Wars: Tales of The Empire,' now streaming on Disney+. We'll cover all the first 3 episodes in this podcast. I'll share my candid thoughts on Morgan Elsbeth's motivations, why I think the first 3 episodes are just filler, and the missed opportunities in telling a story that the bigger fandom of Star Wars might want to hear. Join me as I critique the first 3 eps, its connections, or lack of connection, to the larger Star Wars universe, and what it means for fans both old and new. Grab your lightsabers and let's jump into hyperspace!. We'll cover the final three episodes featuring former Jedi Barris Offee on a future episode.
