First episode came out today. The show continues to be very strong. I’m not sure if he’s directing any other episodes this season, but Jon Favreau’s work here would be deserving of a nomination. The episode’s special guest might make a decent nod too, though the way they ended things makes me pretty sure he’ll be seen again this season and he might exceed episode count. Also shoutout to Pedro Pascal. This role has never offered him any great showcases, but he’s always done a great job with body language and vocal inflections nonetheless. Excited for the rest of this season.

I really enjoyed this episode. The first half was a bit awkward, but it got really enjoyable in the second half. I also can’t wait to see what they do with Boba Fett.

Another strong episode. I will say though, I’m feeling pretty iffy on Amy Sedaris. She’s not necessarily bad, but it feels like she’s on some kind of different wavelength from the rest of the show, and her scenes have been distracting. I don’t recall her being like that in the first season, but I just hope she tones it down a bit if she pops up again.

Do you consider the mandalorian to be a procedural/episodic/half anthology?  Or do you consider it a serialized drama?

It’s episodic sometimes but mainly follows the story plot. So i guess its serialized drama.

Damn episode 3 was really great. The action and story. Im really impressed, this episode has got to be one of the shows highs, showing that you don’t need baby yoda as main feature in an episode to be great.

Don’t get me wrong i still love that baby with all my heart. But this episode shows that there is hope if baby yoda is no longer in the show.
