Forget the Force and lightsabers – give me more Andor, Imperial security intrigue, and political/spy machinations.
  • Star Wars Disney Plus shows should move away from Jedi-centric stories and explore other aspects of the Star Wars universe
  • Andor is a successful example of a Star Wars show without Jedi, focusing on the Empire’s control and morally gray characters
  • Suggestions for new Star Wars show ideas include Pod Racing, Jawa Storage Wars, and One Man and His Droid, among others

    IMO talking about Jedi, Sith and the Force too much dilutes their importance.

    They’re indeed central to the story, but they’re also extremely rare, to a point where most people in the Star Wars universe believe the Jedi are a myth which may not even be real. Seeing a Jedi in action would be like seeing the Messiah in the flesh.

      That’s in large part due to the machinations of the Emperor, though. They were a para-military policing force throughout the galaxy before the fall of the Republic. Those planets who don’t get a lot of interaction with the Republic (like Tatooine) are probably going to have less direct interaction… but they’ll still have some familiarity with the overall concept that doesn’t lean heavily into grandiose myth.
