What people are saying
Updated nightlyPeople are mostly mixed on this prequel about a young Kanan Stark, mainly because the story itself can feel a bit shaky. The saving grace is the acting, with Patina Miller as Raq getting consistent praise for her intense performance, and folks really like London Brown as Marvin and Tony Danza's guest spots. But the leads, Mekai Curtis as Kanan and the character of Raq herself, keep drawing criticism for being frustrating or unlikable, which makes the five-season journey a tough sell for some.
