Skeleton Crew Season 1 Premiere: "This Could be a Real Adventure"
Manage episode 469594625 series 3296869
This could be a real adventure—and a real vibe shift for Growing Up Skywalker.
Hot off the heels of our coverage of The Mandalorian’s first season, we’re diving into a brighter side of the galaxy in Skeleton Crew.
In our recap of the premiere, “This Could Be a Real Adventure,” we discuss the mysteries of At Attin, the tyranny of suburbs, and the glorification of busyness.
We also cover the critical reception of the show (which contrasts heavily with the reception of The Acolyte during a similar timeframe) and continue our Mandalorian-era discussion of justice as enforced by the New Republic.
Neither Sam nor Anna has ever seen Skeleton Crew before, so we’re all in this adventure together!
