Who might not
- ✗could include:
- ✗Those seeking lighthearted Star Wars content: If the show fully commits to its darker tone, viewers expecting more optimistic or family-friendly fare might find it unappealing.
- ✗Fans who prefer Jedi-centric stories: While a disillusioned Jedi Padawan is mentioned, the primary focus is on Maul and his criminal empire, which may not appeal to those solely interested in Jedi lore.
- ✗Viewers who dislike morally ambiguous characters: Maul is a villain, and the series is unlikely to shy away from his darker impulses, which could alienate audiences who prefer clear-cut heroes and villains.
