I'm surprised season 2 isn't happening (yet), the reviews were not bad. And it did 6th most viewed streaming, at its worst. Personally I thought it was not nearly as good as it could have been. But I still would have checked out a second season, in the hopes that it would redeem itself.
But it's not news that Disney is cutting back their expenses and setting money aside for another wave of Star Wars movies, games , and series'. Merchandising rights alone make SW a cash cow. Even if their meh.
