Star Wars is now officially a TV-first franchise. It’s been over five years since a Star Wars movie has premiered in theaters, but on Disney+, the franchise is just getting started. Between prestige live action shows, animated series, and anthological experiments, Star Wars has never felt more varied and exciting. It’s almost like TV is Star Wars’ new home base — even the next feature film, The Mandalorian & Grogu, is a spinoff of a TV show.
But despite all the new forays into the medium, there’s one TV genre Star Wars has yet to get quite right. However, that could all change with the next series.
