Proceeds to launch dome not that far into the air, only blow up a small portion and then leaves it to drop on the city.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who thought about that.
Loved it. Had a real Return of the Jedi vibe
Spoiler:
and the send-off for Ezra was a good balance between simply killing him and explaining his absence in the movies.

They specifically said that it exploded over the ocean. 😐
Yeah, they had different(and more tactical-looking) armor than we've seen before, but they were undoubtedly Royal Guardsmen.
The hilarious part was how the Stormtroopers who entered the room shortly afterward STILL couldn't shoot Ezra, despite him being fully immobilized and levitating like 10 feet in front of them, lol.

Meanwhile Palps just standing there, doing nothing and wanting Ezra to die...when he could easily do it himself. Like it wouldn't be that hard for him.
Thought the show was incredible. Kanan and Hera will remain among my favorite SW characters from any medium. Everyone struggled numerous times, so I don't get "Mary Sue" comments. It's Disney, and a large part of their audience is children. We have to remember that. So adult fans are going to have to stomach some characters who lack nuance, the occasional annoying trope, etc. But you could absolutely tell that the creators respected the hell out of existing canon, doing everything they could to nail characterizations for cameos like Lando, Vader, Leia, etc. and to work this story into existing canon while keeping continuity lapses to a minimum. Thrawn was exactly like I imagined him. And even the show's more annoying elements - like Loth-animals and Ezra in general - got less cloying over time, and progressed in organic ways.
The ending, while a bit contrived, set up future series and confirmed some fan theories without being too fan service-y. It did what was needed of it, given the fact that it's the B-squad in a larger universe that doesn't usually care what goes on in the cartoons. Even trolled EU fans lightly by naming the kid Jacen, which I thought was hilarious.
Forums like this one tend to nit-pick until the only fashionable thing is to deride it as childish or illogically constructed. When that's the approach, it's easy to find fault. But Rebels had a ton of heart, had some great moments, and felt like an honest-to-goodness Star Wars story. I'm hoping we get more from many of the characters down the road, but we'll see.
