I think there’s room for a physically and mentally broken old Mace Windu living as a hermit somewhere with a metal appendage like the rest of the surviving Jedi. And wouldn’t this show be an exact vehicle to show that if he did survive he did not sit on the sidelines. Maybe he did try to organize a revolt and was thwarted and killed or who knows? Lots of ways it could be done in a way that’s interesting IMO. More choices than QuiGon. He’s can only be a ghost that delivers wisdom. Nothing else he can do.

Sure, Obi-Wan went into hiding, remember Yoda basically telling him that he was no match for Sidious. Even Yoda pretty much got wrecked by Sidious in their fight. He even admitted in the ROTS novel, that the Jedi had been preparing for the Sith of a 1000 years ago, and the Sith had evolved and Yoda just didn't have it to beat Sidious and so he fled into exile. I'm pretty satisfied that even the most powerful Jedi of his time couldn't stand up to the Sith, and the time of the Jedi was over until the Force decided that it wasn't.
Mace was nowhere near as powerful as Yoda, so Sidious beating him and destroying him as the apex kill of Order 66 is actually something that makes Sidious and the Sith look even more unpowerful.
I would rather not see Jedi turning up all willy nilly, I mean Ashoka, sure but remember, she had left the Jedi order, and while she did take on Vader and fought him to a draw. Her going against Sidious would be very bad.
Kanan fled and for a long time didn't live as a Jedi, nor did the character from the video game.
As it is, There were really no Jedi Masters left except for Yoda and Ben. It should stay that way.
