I thought Vader's true identity was kept under wraps and only Palpatine knew? How did Third Sister come by this knowledge, exactly?
I agree with Ringleader - the two ep lead was likely a good move. I expect business to pick up the rest of this season.
It is. Think the only people that know are Vader, Palpatine, Tarkin, and Thrawn as far as the empire goes. My guess is a flashback that shows she was a youngling that escaped the Temple during Order 66 and saw Anakin being referred to as Lord Vader. [Reply]

Waiting for Vader to show up at the temple after Order 66 and see him “save” Third Sister as a youngling AND enter a particular chamber and take Baby Yoda away as well.
Liked Uncle Owen. In A New Hope he came across as a curmudgeon trying to wring a couple more seasons of free labor out of Luke. This put's him in an entirely different light. [Reply]
The young Leia character/actress annoys me. She runs like a 5 year old and doesn't enunciate as clearly as a well educated 10 year old should. I looked up her age, she was born on 06/04/12 so maybe she was only 8 when they filmed some of the show? The crappy editing of her action scenes and the way she delivers her dialogue make her seem way to immature to be delivering her lines and it makes the character unbelievable. [Reply]

I would definitely agree with this. Hopefully her role in the show is about at its end. [Reply]

I haven't watched the third episode yet. I'm about to start it. I just wanted to pop in and post this, from wikipedia:
Filming began by May 2021 in Los Angeles, using StageCraft video wall technology, and wrapped by September.
So the actress playing Leia was 8 years old when filming began. That was a stupid decision, to cast an 8 year child old to play an unusually intelligent and well educated 10 year old child. Also, spoiler from later in the season:
That scene of her being chased in the forest is fucking painful. Almost to Three :-) levels of ineptness watching those bounty hunters fumble and trip over each other [Reply]

Both the scenes where she is running away were painful. The forest one more so but both were bad. I mean, the story line had them catching her. Couldn't they have just saved us that horrible scene all together and have her run into the one and when she turns to run from him the other two are behind her and they bag her just the same. [Reply]

I really hope the series gets better after two sub par episodes to start. i liked the first episode better than the 2nd. Leia ruined the 2nd episode for me, that and the storm trooper level marksmanship from Ben and the bounty hunters. [Reply]
I’m glad everyone else noticed the forest chase scene just being awful. I’ve never seen a small tree provide so much resistance to someone chasing a slow moving girl to the point they have to stop and hit it out of frustration as if all is lost and then go 20 feet out of their way to get around it.
