Darth Vader Is Carrying This Season Of Obi-Wan Kenobi Like LeBron Used To Carry The Late 2000s Cavs

Bob Fox and I are back in the basement to discuss the latest episode of Obi-Wan Kenobi or what is slowly morphing into the Darth Vader Variety Hour since The Sith Lord Formerly Known As Anakin Skywalker has stolen the show every time he's been on screen. 

We aren't dealing with a show cucking quite on the level on Mando straight up taking up entire chapters of The Book of Boba Fett to save the show. But I think it's fair to say that their fight in Episode 3 was the highlight of the season so far, at least before we got some prequel flashbacks that gave people born in the 90s nostalgia boners as well as Unchained Vader taking down a motherfucking SPACESHIP using The Force.

Giphy Images.

This is a Star Wars show watched by Star Wars fans, so there will be nitpicking. Namely that Bail Organa was the dumbest motherfucker a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away straight up spilling all of the super secrets that him and Obi-Wan have kept bottled up since Order 66 was unleashed on their asses. 

This is not a laughing matter, David! A diehard Star Warrior like you should realize the whole galaxy is at risk if Vader finds out about his son that has the same last name as him despite being hidden with adopted parents with a different last name. I'm also pretty sure Third Sister will be back in no time after taking a lightsaber through the gut but at this point I don't care because the one thing we learned is the only thing more dangerous than a living person that uses the dark side of The Force is a dead person that uses the dark side of the force. Unfortunately that is not the case for the four greatest soldiers in Star Wars history.

Whatever. As long as they nail or at the very least don't fuck up the inevitable fight scene between Vader and Obi-Wan, I'll give this season a passing grade no matter how meh it has been when The Man In The Black Suit isn't on screen. Also I know I said how sick I was of flashbacks in The Book of Boba Fett. But a couple more flashbacks would be sweet, both to watch and to see someone remake into an awesome video like this.
