Critics Consensus

Evoking childlike wonder, Skeleton Crew is a swashbuckling Star Wars adventure that refreshingly keeps things simple.

Not everything should be Andor. And there is an open and welcome space for stories like Skeleton Crew - the ones that might seem small in scale, but big in heart.

Whether Skeleton Crew will devolve into redundancy and needless exposition or be canceled before it reaches a satisfying conclusion... is anyone’s guess. But whether you’re a longtime fan or completely new to Star Wars, it’s worth sticking around to see.

By rights, this thing should be Gen Alpha’s joy and memory stain, but it’s a work that belongs to both everyone and nobody. Which is a shame.

3.5/5

The series builds a strong story arc and surrounds it with some solid worldbuilding...It also helps to have Jude Law - a stabilizing anchor who immediately feels right at home in the Galaxy Far, Far Away.

Star Wars Skeleton Crew was an amazing series that expanded the overall lore of the franchise, continuing with great music and a great cast! Jude Law was a standout and brought a side of storytelling we haven't seen in the franchise so far

By stepping away from the Jedi-centric stories that have dominated the Star Wars universe, it carves out a space for fresh narratives and perspectives.

This is a gem. I wished it could have tied in a bit more to the overall Star Wars mythology and characters. But it does well doing that a bit and standing on its own. Well acted and written with strong efforts and effects. I hope we get more somewhere soon. This is worth a watch with your kids.

This is Star Wars. So much better than the snore-fest that is Andor. Disney should have gone straight to making stuff like this after they bought Lucasfilm.

It is a clever adaption of Treasure Island, a good Star Wars show with memorable villains and antiheroes and a great kid's show. But not quite the great pirate adventure it could have been if Disney wasn't so prudish.

Actually pretty good, yes it is aimed at kids, and it's not really star wars, just in the star wars universe. But I started it expecting to sack it after the first ep but stuck with it and enjoyed it.

I hate Disney, but have always loved Star Wars... now Disney has successfully brought me to hate Star Wars and to be embarrassed of it. Disney destroys things.
