I think this is suffering from some (perhaps) unattainable expectations.

I don't have super high expectations. And I'm enjoying the shit out of it.
Dude.

Why did the fish person have a whiny teenage accent and how do your effects people make it seem like it's coming from a disembodied head somewhere off screen and the fish person is trying to lip sync with it?

Let's set aside the expectations set by S1 and S2 for a minute, or Andor (both of which prove that these expectations are not 'unattainable') - that was 30 of the most cringeworthy seconds in Star Wars history. And this is a franchise that prominently features Hayden Christiansen and angsty middle school kibitzing about sand.

The bar for gag inducing in the SW universe is pretty damn low (high? **** it - you know what I mean) and yet that moment managed to get there with room to spare.
