During seasons six and seven they only had some notes to work with and the quality began to go down. For season eight they decided to use their own ideas and subvert expectations. The results speak for themselves. They both suck.

Robertx Ortiz-Wilson I solely blame the Star Wars community itself for why we don't have movies like the SWTOR cinematic trailers and trilogies Post-Endor about the New Jedi Order and Imperial Remannt, Death Troopers stand alone films and cool animated series like TCW. Disney and Lucasfilms feared the possible negative backlash or response of the majority of their consumers/fans: the casuals.
