I honestly don't think it's that bad, but yeah it's skippable. Maybe watch the last 3 episodes of the season (Call to Action, Rebel Resolve and Fire Across the Galaxy) where the consequences of the cell's actions start to catch up with them.

"Everyone's entitled to their point of view, but that's seriously a weird one."
While it still has episode elements it's much more serialised than Clone Wars. The first season introduces a bunch of minor and supporting characters who show up later, but you can just look them up or figure things out from context.

Funny, Anakin Skywalker said the same thing to Palpatine when he was asked to go kill a bunch of kids 5 minutes after insisting to Windu that killing a helpless old man was wrong.

Hey now, Palpatine wasn't some helpless old man

I hope Vivien Lyra Blair escapes this Star Wars-generated celebrity attention unscathed. It's bad enough that she's a child actress but now she's a child actress who was in Star Wars playing a role anyone her age would be ecstatic to be playing in a series that wasn't exactly one that was widely considered good by a vocal percentage of the audience. Star Wars fandom is hosed up and I just don't want to hear about anything lovely happening to her or being said to her or anything like the bs that happened with Jake Lloyd.

People play this audition from an alternate kid all the time and are like I can't believe this kid wasn't cast!

But Lloyd was better. The other kid was very much capital A acting in his audition, while Lloyd was a lot more muted and naturalistic, which I think is the more appropriate choice for a vulnerable character.

Baby Leia was a fun character but they are out of their minds bringing her to a con. Everybody at the con will be very nice I'm sure, but it's not like they are making another series with baby leia

As of yesterday Ewan McGregor was talking about how he would be down for a season 2 of Obi-Wan. Not that I think that would happen soon but if that happens a couple of years from now I mean this is Disney they'd 100% get kid Leia back and try to spin off a Young Leia Chronicles or something. And I mean that'd probably be fine, I thought she was really good honestly and was the best part of the show.
