Two highly anticipated shows have added content warnings to their opening episodes, as scenes may remind viewers of the tragic events that occurred in Uvalde, Texas last Tuesday.

Todd Spangler NY Digital EditorDisney+ added a warning to the page of “Obi-Wan Kenobi” that some viewers may find “certain scenes” in the Star Wars series “upsetting.”That appeared to be in response to the mass shooting earlier this week at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, that left 19 children dead.A message on some Disney+ accounts on the “Obi-Wan Kenobi” landing page on Friday read, “Although this fictional series is a continuation of the story from Star Wars movies filmed many years ago, some scenes may be upsetting to viewers in light of the recent tragic events. Warning: Contains violence involving children.”Later in the day, that message appeared to have been shortened, with the update on Disney+ now reading: “There are certain scenes in this fictional series that some viewers may find upsetting.” The details for “Obi-Wan” also includes a disclaimer that reads, “Some flashing light sequences or patterns may affect photosensitive viewers.”SEE ALSO: Disney+’s ‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’ Is a Solid Bridge Between Trilogies, With a Bonus Origin Story for Even the Most Casual ‘Star Wars’ Fans: TV ReviewSeparately, Netflix added a content warning to “Stranger Things 4,” which bowed early Friday, explicitly referencing the Texas shooting.

Spoilers for “Obi-Wan Kenobi” below.A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. Star Wars fans already thought Disney+ outdid itself by reuniting Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen to reprise their ever-so-iconic roles as Obi-Wan and Darth Vader for “Obi-Wan Kenobi” — but the series’ first two episodes had another pleasant shock in store.A ten-year-old princess Leia graced screens worldwide on Friday, sending the fandom into a tizzy like the first sight little green Grogu did in “The Mandalorian” not so long ago and in a galaxy of close proximity.Played by Vivien Lyra Blair of “Birdbox,” diehards were quick to notice the young actor’s innate ability to keep up with Carrie Fisher’s iconic precocious portrayal of the Jedi princess.“I wish Carrie was alive to see the little girl playing her, she would be so delighted to see more story and depth added to Leia,” @tomahawk_c1 tweeted.i just KNOW carrie would be so proud of vivien’s portrayal of leia #ObiWan pic.twitter.com/3qCDo38EOT“i have so much to say but i want to start by appreciating vivien lyra blair’s performance as leia.

“Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you’re my only hope,” is obviously a quintessential line in the “Star Wars” canon and one that echoes out in so many ways in the new Lucasfilm limited series, “Obi-Wan Kenobi.” For those troubled, disturbed even, by the post-Disney acquisition era force, er, direction of “Star Wars” these last few years— the disjointed Skywalker Saga sequels, the hit and miss efforts on Disney+, including the dreadfully dull “Book Of Boba Fett”— hope springs eternal for ‘Obi-Wan’ and by proxy, the future of “Star Wars.” But as this fascinating, occasionally thrilling, and yet sometimes deeply frustrating series quickly proves—at least in the two episodes available on Disney+ so far—perhaps resting all our hopes on one character is too big a burden for the aging Jedi Master.

SPOILER ALERT: This review contains details of the first two episodes of Disney+’s Obi-Wan Kenobi series.
