Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld
Enter the galaxy's dangerous underworld in this 6-episode journey through the experiences of two iconic villains. Former assassin and bounty hunter Asajj Ventress is given a new chance at life and must go on the run with an unexpected new ally, while outlaw Cad Bane faces his past when he confronts an old friend, now a Marshal on the opposite side of the law.

The thing I find underwhelming about it, is that much like Tales of the Empire, I find it kind of misnamed.
Tales of the Empire had little to do with the Empire, Morgan wasn't even a part of the Empire nor did she join it in the show.
Tales of the Underworld, aside from Cad, Ventress doesn't really have much to do with the underworld.
And frankly, the episodes are so dang short. 15 minutes roughly apiece. Like.... why? Just edit them to together, and make each story one episode. Minutes the intro and the credits, and you'd probably have a single 30 minute ep of any other show.
Commit to it, and make longer episodes, and frankly, actually have the episodes focus on characters actually in the thing you're claiming the Tales are of. Like, if you're doing a Tales of the Underworld, why aren't there 6 30 minute episodes, each one dealing with a different character, maybe even new characters, that deal with lots of criminals. Talk about a great way to reintroduce a character like Dash Rendar. Or Legends crime lords. Or have a story set in Jabba's Palace.
