The show would've been different if it wasn't focused as a kids show originally. It was later seasons when Filoni and team were able to develop the show in a more serious tone like CW. I'll say this, folks talk about CW and Rebels in high regard but you don't hear much about Resistanc, which IMHO was a miss.

I enjoy Tales of Jedi; both stories were great. Didn't like the Yaddle going out like that though.
