Wow, I love the later tweets saying she didn't think that would offend anyone, how tone deaf can you be?

Indeed. It's a shit apology, because the original post is ALL about making fun of Dr. Ford...it's beyond tone deaf.

Anyways, I would imagine we are about to find out that lots of voice actresses can do a good Leia impression. No way she keeps her job.

Yeah if she didn't get fired there would be a huge backlash. I'm sure Disney is super pissed, not good publicity for the show a couple weeks before it starts. What a moron.

Yep, and the optics would be TERRIBLE after refusing to buckle on James Gunn if they kept her.

Totally.

Oh my. Career suicide, just on the verge of making it somewhere most voice actors would kill for.

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

Unbelievably stupid. However, It's possible that her career might not be totally destroyed, she'll probably be fired from this but I feel like as a voice actor you might still be able to find jobs since people won't see your face and may not recognize your name/voice.
Although in this age of social media call-outs that may not be the case.

This starts tonight I see. As it’s on reg tv of course I have it set to dvr. Thought this would be the start of the sub shows.

Maybe I ll get lucky and they start with Mandalorian and throw out CW before it on tv.

Just a heads up, only the premier is on reg tv...after tonight it goes to Disney XD.

They seem to be making this absurdly difficult to watch. My sky planner has ep 1 for next Saturday night, on DisneyXD... does that mean the whole series will air though? And DisneyNow, whatever the hell that is, has 3 episodes on already, but I can't access it.

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

I’m not going to bother either since I’d have to also pay for it...and nothing in the trailers sold me that it was worth it.

Totally forgot this was on this past weekend, what with it being real thanksgiving and all.

Is the basic consensus here that it's not worth watching and I shouldn't bother?

Wow, that's pretty good, granted only one episode has been released yet. Maybe I'll check it out after all and see if I like it.

Eh let's be fair. 11 people (critics) isn't exactly a broad consensus.

Other than BK I've spoken with two other people who watched and neither of them were impressed. And general impressions online seem to be middling.

Right, I did not look at the number of reviews ha, but the audience score is at 80% with 131 ratings but I'm not sure if I trust that.
I think I'll still try it out and watch the first one, if it's halfway decent maybe I'll keep watching.

I saw somewhere that the characters are a part of a "Team Fireball" which has to be one of the lamest names I've ever heard.

Yep, the best way to tell if you'll like is to check it out.

If it was free I probably would too, but it doesn't look good enough form the trailers for me to pay for it.

Let's keep in mind that both TCW and Rebels were mediocre far into their first seasons. (I haven't yet watched any of Resistance)

See, but I disagreed with that. I liked them both from the off.

You like Downton Abbey. Your judgement is not to be trusted.

I agree with Whisperz, I wasn't a huge fan of TCW and Rebels at the start. Especially TCW as that movie they released was absolutely awful, in my opinion. I thought it got a lot better as the seasons went on, so I have hope for this show too.
