I went into Star Wars Resistance the same way I went into Star Wars Rebels. Skeptical. Like Rebels, I went in think it's going to be nothing but a "Kids Show", dumbed down for the masses to sell toys to kids, etc... So, as much as I wanted to believe that Resistance would follow in the same path that Rebels took, I still had it in my head that it was going to be nothing more than a 'Saturday Morning Cartoon'. Boy, was I ever wrong. The animation is damn good. Really good. But not only that, we get a bunch of fun and interesting characters to get us to through Season 1. Hey, there is something to be said for the fact that Anthony Daniels, Oscar Isaac, Gwendoline Christie, Liam McIntyre and Elijah Wood lend their voices, which was really cool.
The story itself was pretty good as well, taking place just before the events of The Force Awakens, which of course explains why we see the likes of Poe Dameron, Gwendoline Christie and BB-8, which is always cool to get. Fan Service does have it's place. With that said, there are new characters that I really like, the best being Neeku Vozo who is funny as f*ck. Seriously, he made me bust out laughing plenty of times throughout Season 1. Can't forget CB-23 who takes over for BB-8 when he leaves for his Force Awakens adventure. Overall, fantastic series and I can't wait for Season 2. One thing I gotta point out, there were a bunch of scenes, scenarios, character reactions that made me think of Space Ace (Cartoon arcade game). Definitely check it out. Kind weird that my binge watching for this series culminates on today of all days with Disneyland's Galaxy Edge opening today.
