Interestingly, a lot of the themes used in the modern "Battlestar Galactica" TV series would work for a TV series based in a Rebel carrier group. They fight against insurmountable odds, they are always on the run and lacking resources, and now that "Rogue One" has shown the existente of more (and less) militant Rebel factions, you can have some internal friction about when are you going to far in the fight against the Empire.

I've been saying exactly the same thing to my friends for years. I'd love to watch a show like that.

Actually, I like the idea of a Top Gun style movie from the Imperials perspective that ends with the main characters defecting to the Rebel Alliance.

So, like a scene of Carnor Jax flying at range 1, inverted over an X-Wing and flipping him off?

Except that TIEs don't have windows on the roof.

V-Wings do though - you could set it in 18BBY and have one of the earliest Rebel groups, like Saw Gerrara's or Bail's (Bail himself manages to conceal his rebelliousness from the Empire).

I think wedge and Biggs were fresh recruits in ANH. Biggs had time enough to go home and tell Luke about joining the rebellion on he same day that the Tantive IV was caught by ISD Devaststor, so he was definately not at Scarif.

Wedge was unaware of the size of the DS in ANH, but maybe he just wasn't paying attention if he was at Scarif. Who knows.

This. In the deleted scene between Biggs and Luke at their old hangout on Anchorhead, Luke meets big immediately after witnessing the battle between the Tantive IV and the Devastator. Biggs reveals that he has "met some friends" and is going to desert and join the Rebellion. This is the reason that Luke is so interested in C-3PO's statement and asks him if he knows about the Rebellion against the Empire - he'd just heard that Biggs was going to join up the previous day. The 'friend' that Biggs was talking about is revealed in Legends background to be Wedge, who recruited him and brought him to Yavin. That places Wedge on Tatooine during the battle of Scariff, and Biggs not yet part of the Rebellion.

Uh, what? They sure have, since 1977! 4 small windows on the top cockpit hatch, any TIE with a standard cockpit has them!
