Looks like a certain studio finally got serious about assigning people to the task with sufficient attention to detail and understanding of the Star Wars source material.
The people behind the production management, art direction, cinematography, lighting, costumes, and music are all clearly adept at their jobs. Even the writing is good (a rarity these days).
It's a real treat to look at the screen and see custom hardware designed to match the look, feel, and scale of the outstanding 1977 and 1980 feature films. Very much appreciated. Computer consoles, displays, building designs, ornate 1930s costumes, lavish sets, ship designs (both interior and exterior), quirky droids, ... all are present and accounted for.
Adding to this is that the actors are chewing up the screen. They seem to appreciate the material and we -- the audience -- appreciate their efforts.
Solid modern interpretations of the Star Wars universe are a rarity. This series does not disappoint.
Bravo.
