The LEGO Star Wars shows are so underrated honestly. They’re absolutely hilarious, the voice acting is great, the jokes are clever, the action is imaginative and well-directed, and they utilize a surprising amount of lore from the books.
They’re just really high-quality shows that are more knowledgeable of the Star Wars mythos than the ‘actual’ SW shows such as The Clone Wars and Rebels, and they make fun of the sillier aspects of George’s work but they’re never disrespectful to the SW legacy.

dark Star Wars show me a woman who’s not a white brunette

As I recall, the Queen of Naboo after Padme was named Queen Jamillia, and (though its not immediately obvious due to the Naboo make-up) she was played by Indian actress Ayesha Dharker.

Indeed, she was also in Doctor Who

There’s now also

Still though, it seems every woman featured in the SW films has dark hair, so that’s something. [Unless you count Phasma as being blonde?]
I also feel I should note that, as always, the Expanded Universe and now the New Canon are leagues ahead of the films as far as representation is concerned (and in general tbh). But yes, the SW films are still bizarrely unadventurous in the diversity of their female characters and that needs to change.

Mara Jade: I’m sorry Leia, I know this is hard for you, but I’m going to kill Kylo Ren.
Leia: Sure you will.
Mara: I mean it! I’m going to kill him!
Leia: Mara, you keep telling me you’re going to murder my family, but you never actually do it. You’re always “too busy”, “I’ll get around to it”, or “there’s a voice in my head compelling me to kill Luke I’ll do it eventually”. You spent five years wandering the galaxy before trying to take out my brother, but now you’re all about killing my son? I don’t buy it.
