Ahsoka Live Action Series (Disney+) (2 Viewers)

Well yeah but whatever they do now is tied to future plans
Like you’re not going to cgi kill him if you’re going to recast the role

Maybe the shortish run time indicates that they cut some Baylan scenes
I can see a very cliffhanger finish for him and next season Shin finds his robes/crystal somewhere and ‘takes up the mantle’
I think they have to recast. It's not unheard of. Shin doesn't know why he's there. He's the only one who seems to know what he's looking for.

Yeah, I was resistant to the recast at first, but there is so much of his story to be told. I think some sort of mask or disfigurement/transformation would be apropos here...

They may not bother. The MCU recast war machine. And one of the warriors 3.

True, but people get weird about recasting folks who are deceased these days. That's the difference here. They wouldn't recast Black Panther and that was a huge loss for them from a storytelling standpoint.

That was a huge mistake, and I'm sure everyone who works for Disney's film side is fully aware of that. It completely screwed up the second film. I very seriously doubt they would make the same choice if they had it to do over.

They'll recast Baylan. They have to because his arc is far too important. In some ways, it seems more important than the "main" Thrawn plot. No doubt, Ahsoka and Sabine will be dealing with him in season 2 since they are trapped on the same planet with him.

Now we know Baylan was indeed hunting the Father/Son/Daughter, but I sure would have liked to have gotten more. Leave 'em hungry, I guess.
There has to be significance that he was standing on the arm of the Father rather than on either side. It seems he does want to transcend Dark and Light and derive power from the "source" of both. What his plans are is anyone's guess at this point, but he'd certainly become far more powerful than Palpatine ever was if he can tap into that power. Really looking forward to see where Filoni goes with this.

If nothing else in this series screams out that one HAS to watch Clone Wars and Rebels to understand what's happening in Ahsoka, it's this finale episode. So much happened here that absolutely requires the knowledge of seeing those two series, I can't imagine anyone who hasn't watched them being utterly lost watching this episode.

EDIT: Also, that was a phenomenal episode. What a fantastic ending...and beginning!

It really seems like they probably went back in and cut some of his scenes out
Especially considering that weird scene with Shin all like ‘can I be your friend’?
I have to imagine that Baylan had started some prelim quests this season, but they realized they needed to audible
