Hoth Takes #15: Pay Us The Money And Give Us The Spice
Episode 15, Nov 22, 2021, 12:45 PM
What do Loki and That’s So Suite Life of Hannah Montana have in common? Every big franchise has cameos and tie-ins, but only the best franchises balance these bits of connectivity with storytelling that can stand on its own. In this episode, Haley returns from her well-deserved maternity leave to join Eric and Grace for a look back at Star Wars: Visions and a look ahead at The Book of Boba Fett and other upcoming shows. We discuss our favorite Visions episodes and how the show benefits from telling stories about regular people; our hopes for the focus of the Boba Fett series; and our fears about crossover overkill. Plus, Eric complains about Disney’s stinginess and Haley complains about a missing element in Star Wars stories.
