Appropriate for a 5 year old Star Wars fanatic?

Some violence in the beginning and some scary looking aliens throughout. No bad words, no drugs , no sex or tits. No overtly beat you over the head progressive or conservative "messages"

Common Sense Media says 9.  Read their review, they cover the issues of why they say 9 and up,

Quote

Parents need to know that Star Wars: Skeleton Crew is a tween-friendly Star Wars series that stars Jude Law and a ragtag, diverse crew of kids. Expect strong sci-fi violence—background characters are killed with laser guns and explosions—but no main character deaths or gore. There are also many tense scenes throughout, as well as some jump scares, and the young characters are frequently in peril. They also often talk to each other rudely, using insults like "loser," "dumb," and "jerk." And the fact that they defy grown-up authority is presented as the right (and brave) thing to do. Overall the show emphasizes the triumph of good over evil.

Not knowing anything about the series, I watched the first episode with my daughter the other day. They nailed the 80's kid nostalgia without being overt about it. It was really neat how the nostalgia just crept in like a warm comforting memory.

I commented to my daughter that it reminded me of E.T. and The Goonies which she has seen but didn't feel the association between those movies and the show.

100% Star Wars Goonies.  Which is why it is awesome.

Well we learned a shit ton about At Attin

Spoiler

Not listed on any star map

Last surviving "jewel of the Old Republic," as the rest are destroyed

Fern had a proto-Republic artifact 

Old Republic currency

Mysterious "supervisor" and everything seems to be handled by safety droids.  Either the supervisor is a droid/AI or died a long ass time ago and the droids just kept going

Their history is really outdated, since they know about Alderaan but not what happened to it

This show is so much fun. The visual of them walking on the moon with the planet in the background was great. It feels like Star Wars. The owl and her lab reminded me of Aughra from The Dark Crystal. The pure joy the kids had when they were in the gunner seats was great. It feels so much more authentic than a lot of the content we've gotten lately. Just wish it was longer. Maybe this was covered before but I believe this was written as a movie and then adapted into a show.

Order 66 survivor or maybe parents who left the order/were killed by Order 66? 

The show is set in year 5 ABY, meaning about 24 years after Order 66. If the character is even close to Jude Law’s age (51), he’s older than Ahsoka and may be closer to Anakin’s age.

I watch the animated content but don't read the books and comics. Apparently "Crimson Jack" is a space pirate during the rise of the First Order (25-30 years after Skeleton Crew). I don't know if/what the connection is. Probably just another fake alias Jude Law's character uses.

Crimson Jack originally appeared in the 1977 run of the Marvel Comics Star Wars series. I'd imagine it's a nod to The Dread Pirate Roberts from Princess Bride where Crimson Jack is just a moniker that people take over.

Watched the first 3 ep tonight with the wife.

She was super uninterested after hating Acolyte and I was kinda holding my breath as well…. She asked if this was a kid show or what. I answered I think it’s like Star Wars Goonies/peter pan/stranger things(I think).

We both came away pleasantly surprised into it. The kiddos weren’t bad actors, the parents were a little cringey but whatevs. JL has some character building skills so it’s intriguing.

SMEE seems like a good take on a pirate droid. I also didn’t realize it was nick frost until afterwards. Same for the cat/owl being Maeby Funke.

World building here was really impressive as well.

My wife looked at me and exclaimed “Jesus, see it shouldn’t be hard to not suck Acolyte!” I chuckled and agreed.

In till the end now, this should get me to Andor2

So I'm guessing the old Captain of 33 went on to become the Supervisor on At Attin and did not want anyone else finding the location of his planet full of treasure? Then he settled down to live out a peaceful existence? I'm sure it won't be as simple as that but the ship being buried on the planet makes a lot more sense. Had to turn the subtitles on when the French girl showed up. Neel is a such a sweet character. I like that KB was an incredible shot with her tech glasses. I'm ready for Wim to have his turn where he starts being more of a leader and less the annoying kid who's bringing the team down.

Definitely a kid show and I don't mind. They don't pander(much) and the pacing works.  Weaving a good tale so far. Great introduction to younger kids in to Star Wars 

The Acolyte should have been more adult and edgier, as well as fixing all the other shit

I'm watching with my 8 year old daughter. This is her first exposure to a show that requires you wait a week between each episode. Hilarious watching her frustration and disbelief over the concept.
