It’s a great reveal, well crafted, smartly executed, and full of promise! Like Luke, viewers will probably be very excited to realize they have already found the Jedi they were sent to look for, metaphorically. In the first episode of its two episode premiere, Obi-Wan Kenobi reveals that it is something significantly different.
The show was marketed as yet another desert-set Disney Plus offering, a solo adventure for Ewan McGregor’s defeated Jedi master who would struggle to watch over a young Luke Skywalker while he evaded the operatives of the Dark Side, culminating in a confrontation with Hayden Christensen’s Darth Vader himself. After the premiere of Obi-Wan Kenobi, viewers might be feeling a similar mix of emotions.
In Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, Jedi Master Yoda tells Luke Skywalker not to judge others based on appearances, which is a little rich coming from a guy who spent his first hour with the kid pretending to be a senile bog hobbit.
