One of the biggest surprises of the show was an appearance by Hamato Xiono, who before this was only present in Resistance, the Star Wars animated series that no one cares about. If you haven't seen it, don't go out of your way; it's thoroughly mediocre and Xiono is only important as the main character's mostly unseen asshole father who he's rebelling against by joining Leia's resistance. And really, he didn't need to be here, as the point of his presence could easily just be done by some random other Senators acting, as Principal Skinner put it, "Do you want to act like the real UN, or do you just want to squabble and waste time?" (I swear I'm not deliberately referencing that show all the time, it just happens to fit a bunch of stuff recently) Jacen's appearance was especially good because the previous week, a bunch of people had completely freaked out and insisted his not appearing in the first two episodes was 100% confirmation that Filoni had forgotten about his existence and therefore clearly didn't care about these characters anymore, so this was a blast to throw in their faces. And I very much appreciate that this era continues to do its level best to incorporate the Force lore introduced by the prequels in a way more nuanced than "Only the people with an arbitrary high number of paramecium in their bodies can use it." Suck it, Abrams, we're sticking with anyone being a potential great Jedi!
