"Obi-Wan Kenobi is masterfully guided by Ewan McGregor," wrote Nick Schager of The Daily Beast. This sentiment is echoed by Richard Roeper of the Chicago Sun-Times, who wrote, "Some 17 years after McGregor was last seen as Obi-Wan, he brings more depth, more of a world-weary wisdom to the role. It's commanding work." That said, some critics are levying criticism against Obi-Wan Kenobi, such as Brian Tallerico of RogerEbert.com. "This kind of forgettable storytelling just doesn’t last like the properties that inspired it," he wrote.

In his official review of the series, CBR's own Blake Hawkins wrote, "As expected, Ewan McGregor does an outstanding job of portraying the "broken" and "faithless" Jedi master... In a noticeable improvement from The Book of Boba Fett, Obi-Wan Kenobi doesn't get bogged down by a slow-developing plot. By the time Part 1 ends, everything is set in motion."

Set ten years after the events of the 2005 film Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, Obi-Wan Kenobi sees Ewan McGregor reprise his role as the eponymous Jedi Master, taking place during his self-imposed exile on Tatooine. However, Obi-Wan is forced out of hiding on account of the Inquisitors, an elite Jedi-hunting force answering to none other than Darth Vader (Hayden Christensen) himself. An official synopsis for the series can be found below:
