"The Star Wars franchise's growth over the past five decades transformed it into a multimedia outfit so sprawling and focused on recapturing the magic of the original films that it has sometimes felt like Lucasfilm lost sight of who its target audience is."
"Rather than infusing that energy into all of its Disney-era projects, the franchise has seemed much more inclined to silo it off so as not to distract from its forays into sci-fi Westerns and politically charged thrillers."
"The concept of living in a hermetically sealed bubble features largely in Skeleton Crew's first couple of episodes, as it introduces you to its quartet of younglings whose dreams for adventure unexpectedly become their new reality."
"The show doesn't have all that much to say about where it fits into the larger Star Wars universe or how it's responding to the franchise's evolution into an unwieldy morass of never-ending stories. But if it did, it probably wouldn't be anywhere near as charming."
