Episode 102: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Part V

Our recap of Obi-Wan Kenobi: Part V centered on discussions of the series’ two most powerful women: Tala and Reva. We used this episode as a way to process not just the death of a compelling female character, but Star Wars’ long, long history of fridging—killing off (almost all of) its compelling female characters. In the case of Part V, we ultimately realize something beautiful.
