    I heard that he was doing that to bridge the gap between the Original Trilogy and the Sequel Trilogy, and that’s coming along well, but if he’s trying to bridge the gap between the Prequels and the Originals then he’s doing a genuinely terrible job. A lot of the inconsistencies between those two trilogies have come about because of his involvement and his shows. At that point he’d just be trying to clean up his own mess while patting himself on the back.

      Agreed. Original trilogy and sequel trilogy is what I was referring to. He’s trying to use the shows to bridge that gap.

        Ah okay. Then yeah, he’s doing a great job there in my opinion. I could always kinda see where they were going between OT and ST so didn’t bother me much. I also actively liked Lukes decline in TLJ and thought it fit the character really well. A dude who had been lifted up as the savior of the galaxy having a single moment of weakness and fear, his fight against the dark side slipping only for a moment but enough to do lasting damage? Loved it.
