Star Wars fans are talking about one of the least-watched of the Disney Plus spin-off shows: Skeleton Crew.

The series follows a group of youngsters who accidentally blast off from their mysterious home planet, facing pirates and danger throughout the galaxy on their quest home. Jude Law stars as the shadowy Jod, a pirate posing as a Jedi.

"Plus I think Andor season 2 really overshadowed it," is someone else's opinion – though another fan says: "It was good, exactly what I needed as an Andor counterweight. I really loved watching Jude Law having what looks like the time of his life hamming it up magnificently."

"It was just a fun to watch show. That’s about it. I enjoyed the entire series. I really hope we see Jude Law again," is another person's thoughts. "I’m 51 grew up everything Star Wars. My entire childhood was riding bikes and playing with my action figures. Most ppl say it was made for kids, Nah. It was made for Genx too."

There has been no word on whether Skeleton Crew will return for more. According to Nielsen's data, though, it had the least-watched premiere of any of the Star Wars shows (H/T GameRant), so it's possible we won't see a continuation.

However, the series was well reviewed, with our own 4 star Skeleton Crew review calling the show "a fun adventure story with lots of promise for Star Wars TV."

Next up for Star Wars is The Mandalorian & Grogu, which arrives next May. In the meantime, check out our guide to all the upcoming Star Wars movies and shows for everything else the galaxy far, far away has in store.
