The writing has killed this show. The twins have the dumbest backstory of any characters I have seen. The episode about the witches was a chore to watch (stupid chanting, the two mothers conceiving?). You have a cackling fire in space and fire spreading in a stone fortress with all these force-sensitive witches around. Then, you have cringe moments like asking the pronouns of that giant rodent.
The fighting choreography and use of cortosis made last episode solid. The reveal of the darkside user was pretty predictable, but that's fine. I just get sick of Mae who wants to kill Osha and her family, kill those Jedi Masters, then doesn't want to kill her sister and Jedi suddenly despite killing multiple Jedi already? I mean, her character is all over the board and makes no sense.
The action has been solid, but I feel like an 11 yo is writing the story. I feel like the antagonist is going to be tied back to the Knights of Ren because they used Kylo Ren's music. Other than the fighting last episode, it's been pretty awful. I hope it turns around and at least becomes "meh", but the writing doesn't give me a lot of hope.
