A lot has been happening with the Star Wars franchise on the live-action television front. Following the success of The Mandalorian, Lucasfilm announced last December that there would be several more live-action shows coming to Disney+.

On the hit Disney+ series The Mandalorian, viewers were treated to appearances by characters from other Star Wars media, including the realm of animation.

We even got to see Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker in the season 2 finale (results of which have gotten admittedly mixed reception). Fans who have read or watched other Star Wars media feel rewarded, while newcomers who get interested in faces who are newer to them become curious and want to dig through the Star Wars catalog to learn more.

The Muppets and Star Wars have more in common than you would think. 3D CGI was not a thing in 1980 when Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back was released. So, to create the strange, cool, and interesting creatures and characters, Lucasfilm had to use puppets…or more accurately, Muppets.

We walked down the low-lit hallways in the darkest hour of the night. Shaak Ti had thoroughly explained her suspicions to me and I tried to wrap my warped mind around the concept of this conspiracy. Shaak Ti believed the inhibitor chips were a danger to the integrity of the Republic, that there was something hidden deeper within them that could trigger all-out anarchy amongst the clones.
