@Jake Russell It is. That's why we need a TV show about Obi wan and Qui Gon before episode 1. For 5 seasons. With season 3 having the Msndalore ARC. Where Kenobi romances Satine and Qui Gon and Kenobi fight death watch in epic battles with the Mando pacifist movement. The first two seasons will be more training, monk, police, and detective style episodes where they explore different exotic worlds. Fighting smugglers, pirates, terrorists, deadly bounty hunters, defending villages from dangerous raider or marauder factions, and brokering peace during local civil wars. There can be a episode where they fight Aurra Sing. There can be an episode in season 2 where they crash land on Dathomir and fight Night Sisters, dangerous hounds, a rancor that I'd rode by a nightsister with an arrow, and brothers. Season 2 finale can be about the Stark Hyperspace War. Season 3 can have some cool missions too. Like some jedi starfighter dogfights and epic chase scenes. Plus some Dooku and Qui Gon heated discussions. We can see Qui Gon bucking more against the order and being dissed by some jedi masters. Season 4 delves deeper into Qui Gon learning the force ghost technique on his own. It later shows his romance with a female jedi master (which was hinted in earlier seasons but not fully shown). Then we see a tough conflict where Qui Gon's love is killed in action. Season 5 can have an arc about the Yinchorri conflict. One thing we notice is Kenobi's progression over the years and we learn why he respected Qui Gon so much. Qui Gon gets tempted by the dark side, but rejects it. Then Kenobi and Qui Gon fight Qui Gon's old apprentice who left the jedi order. Season 5 also emphasizes how corporations and the Trade Federation are getting stronger with Senate Discord rampant. Qui Gon's fallen apprentice uses force lightning that is slightly weaker than Dooku's. This explains how Kenobi later learned to block it in Episode 2. The dark jedi is as strong as a jedi knight but his dark side amp makes him fight like a gifted knight or decent master. He never outmatched Qui Gon who dodges the lighting most of the time or redirects it with the force. Though he initially schools Kenobi who eventually holds his own against him. After the dark jedi is clearly beaten, he commits suicide. This makes Qui Gon nearly give into the dark side but, Kenobi helps save his master. After this, we see them get notified about what is happening in Naboo.
