Ahoy, mateys! Skeleton Crew has blasted onto our screens, and it's brought with it all the fun and whimsy of classic adventure tales of yore. The show follows a group of kids who stumble upon a hidden starship, accidentally shooting off into deep space. There, they end up on a shady outpost full of colorful pirates – and one, the mysterious Jod, AKA Crimson Jack, is willing to help them… since their strange home planet is actually the fabled home of legendary treasure.
It's clear, then, that all the ingredients are there for a fun, pirate-filled romp through the galaxy far, far away (and that's exactly what I said in our Skeleton Crew review, too). And, while I was watching and loving the show's opening episodes, I realised that it's also clear this is what Star Wars really needs right now.
