- TriviaDespite having retired from composing anything Star Wars related after the Sequel Trilogy ended, John Williams contacted Kathleen Kennedy and requested to write something for this show, simply because Obi-Wan Kenobi has never had a character theme of his own before, and Williams wanted to write one for him.
- GoofsOwen and Beru live another 8-10 years (depending on backstory sources) on Tatooine till the events of 'A New Hope'. Where they appear to have aged much. It's as if Luke became more 'stressful' for them to bring up (causing them to age more).
- Crazy creditsDuring the opening credits, the letter I in "OBI-WAN KENOBI" is shaped like Obi-Wan's lightsaber.

Featured review
6/10 wish this could deliver so much more
After finishing all 6 episodes and expecting similar ride as we had with the Mandalorian, I have to say for a big character as Obi-Wan, this was really underwhelming and sad to watch.
Sure it is nice to re-visit characters, connect it with ending of the 3rd star wars episode movie, the nostalgia was working.
Unfortunately, the storytelling and writing felt amateurish and cheap, even for me, as not huge SW fan. I wouldn't go that far to bash these TV series yet, complain about each element... yes Moses Ingram as Reva was not great, almost annoying and completely monotone in portrayal of her character, sometimes I felt the same towards little Leia...
The characters and story didn't have the heart and therefore it was hard to convince us emotionally. Over the top scenes, easy storyline solutions and plot holes just took away more joy for sure.
I might watch 2nd season for the SW nostalgia but if the writing and directing would not make a huge leap for better, I would not bother...
