A third announced spinoff, “Rangers of the New Republic,” is not currently in active development
It's not surprising as the rumor was that Cara Dune (Gina Carano) was supposed to be a main character, and she got the boot from Disney. There was then talk that they may bring in a live action Hera Syndulla instead. I think the planned show may not be gone forever but that Lucasfilm may have halted development as they currently don't have solid idea to move forward into production
I'm not surprised the price increases are coming and we all know that would happen ... the issue is I believe a lot of it is to subsidize ESPN+ and their sports broadcasting fees. The same things happens with cable TV providers where you can't opt out of the sports programming due to contracts and they spread the pain of the increasing fees across all customers.
For Disney, if you want a Hulu bundle you have to also pay for ESPN+ ... it's not a nice little addon bonus to get ESPN free ... it's hidden in the price increases
