Star Wars’ New Series Pays Off The Franchise’s Best Retcon

If you watch the Star Wars films in order of release, the prequels came out first, followed by the original trilogy, and then the sequels. This doesn’t include the spin-off movies or the many Star Wars TV series. Those shows are set at different points in the timeline, and sometimes add details that change things that were previously established – a practice often called ‘retconning’.
