Welcome to the Monday chat corner!

This week, lets return to the animated TV show Bad Batch* Do you watch it? Do you like it? It feels like Disney is following two directions with its TV shows: animated for younger audience and live-action for older viewers. What do you think about that? Which of these approaches do you like more - or do you enjoy both equally? (Or perhaps neither?)

* I know, I know, the second season aired in the spring, the hype is deader than a dead thing. I have reasons! I try not to bring up shows that have just finished airing in the main chat post to avoid spoilers.

If it were something I was actively watching I would make a separate post for it (like we've done with The Book of Boba Fett back when it aired) but er, I don't really have the batteries to watch SW stuff as it airs anymore.

Maybe that's not ideal, though? Would you prefer I bring up things as they air? If you have a preference please weigh in, I'm happy to change my approach if it will work better for you.

Season 3 of TBB is probably the upcoming SW thing I’m looking forward to most at the moment, although I freely acknowledge TBB as a whole can be a bit of a mixed bag quality-wise: I feel like it’s usually best whenever it forgets that it’s supposed to be The A-Team in Space, and instead does TCW-esque political drama with Riyo Chuchi or follows Crosshair on his continuing mission to lose friends and alienate people. That said, its best is genuinely quite good, and the latter half of S2 in particular was full of fun stuff.

The one thing I do think TBB does consistently well is that the sets and backgrounds are incredibly pretty. If you like skyscapes and cyberpunk-ish cities, this is the show for you.

"Crosshair on his continuing mission to lose friends and alienate people" This is the perfect summary of that show at its best; I wish the creators had got the memo and made that show all the way through.
