Diabolical (2022)
Entertaining but...
It's nowhere near the quality of either Boys or Invincible. Some episodes are entertaining but gore seems to be only thing it is going for. There is no plot, every episode is another story and... Just give us The Boys. Or another Vought newsletter. That was really unnecessary.
Star Wars Rebels (2014)
Few steps back from Clone Wars.
I really wanted to like this series, but for several reasons i couldn't.
First, animations, especially at any conversation, are horrible. It's one of the minor flaws.
Second, it targets a really young audience. Plots are silly. Every good guy is a Mary Sue or Gary Stu, while Empire is all incompetent fools (save few) that makes you wonder why Empire doesn't crumble to a sneeze (I know it's an issue with the entire franchise but believe me this one REALLY stands out). There is an enemy, but not a threat. It kills all the fun in an action oriented plot.
Looking back, only thing i liked about the entire series was Darth Maul. His episodes were really enjoyable. He was a really interesting character in this one, and added some good plots and a bit of grey to the palette where everything was black and white. With him gone, i'm really much interested with Rebels anymore. Return of Tharn was nice i admit, but he's not going to fill the hole Maul left: A villain that personally bound with the protagonist which have added a bit more maturity, and a real sense of danger, both with his lightsaber and corrupting influence.
