Halfway through the 3rd episode I’m starting to notice there’s a lot more wrong with the show. The camera work, the attention to detail on Leia compared to everyone else, the mixture of child-like fun with something that should be serious, no clear direction with the movie (is it a movie about Leia or Kenobi). The list goes on. I’m surprised that no one is talking about the director.

Excellent point. You've put into words something that has been bothering me for a while. Kenobi is, in my view, supposed to be a dark story. The Jedi were defeated, the Empire owns the galaxy, Vader is in his prime, and Kenobi is still grappling with his failure along with the new responsibility he has to Luke... it's not supposed to be a fun adventure story. It wasn't portrayed that way in the trailer either. I remember vividly that it looked like Obi-Wan was struggling with living the life of a hunted man.

Yet here comes the show, and now it looks like "Adventure Time with Leia"! You have cute robots, little jokes, etc. I'm not saying you can't have jokes but damn, it's supposed to be a bleak atmosphere and that is not conveyed well in the show. Some of the blame is due to the inquisitors not coming across as threatening, which of course is partly due to Reva playing "angry black woman" and partly because they killed off the grand inquisitor in the second episode (whose idea was that?). They barely introduce the inquisitors and they are already a footnote.

The scene where Leia is being chased through the forest by three full grown adult males and somehow eludes them is one of the most ridiculous things I've seen on TV. It's straight out of a cartoon Disney show. There are lots of logical errors that make it hard to take it seriously. In the latest episode, there is a completely unexplained situation involving a tunnel and one character appearing to show up at the end of it before another, despite the latter entering the tunnel first and having a huge head start. My head hurts trying to follow stuff like this.
