Star Wars Blaster Canon Podcast: Star Wars Resistance Season 1 Review

Our Star Wars podcast hosts critique Resistance season 1 and prepare for the onslaught of news from Celebration.

Den of Geek’s Star Wars experts cover this month’s news in on the latest Star Wars Blaster Canon podcast. Star Wars Resistance season one has wrapped up, and we devote most of this episode covering our mixed feelings about the series. The show dovetails with The Force Awakens, bringing the Resistance agents into direct contact with the First Order while continuing to try, with varying success, to tell a story about the average citizen of the galaxy far, far away.

Does Kaz work for us as a main character? Paul doesn’t think so. We speculate about what will happen next season and how the show could become more of an ensemble to take advantage of the characters of the Aces. With the destruction of Hosnian Prime and Tam’s defection, the characters have a lot of room to grow.
