After the Clone Wars, Maul sets out to rebuild his criminal syndicate on a planet the Empire has left alone, where he meets a disillusioned young Jedi Padawan who could become his apprentice.
Animated Star Wars viewers who like a chatty villain get a gritty crime story that looks almost live-action. Sam Witwer plays Maul smug and relaxed, more talker than shouter. In one scene he sets a pot of tea beside his lightsaber and talks to his captive Jedi, then duels her with one arm kept behind his back. The comic-relief characters grate.
Episodes are short and three storylines run side by side, so watch in order, a few at a time.
