Is this the final season? I find it hard to see much story potential passed a season 3.

Not the final season. They're going to keep milking this as long as possible.

There may start to be a bigger story unfolding between this and Ahsoka. Grand Admiral Thrawn, Moff Gideon, whatever the Empire's intentions for Baby Yoda... these things are all connected.

Good first episode. Babu Frik's ( The little creature from Rise of Skywalker) race of droid fixers are in the first episode.

They make a quick nod to Cara Dune writing her off. Greef Karga says she was hired by special forces when Mando brings up making her Sheriff.

Decent first episode. Nothing really special, though. And I don't remember Babu Frik's in Rise of Skywalker but I don't remember much about that movie anymore.

Apparently this show is planned to go on at least another 3 seasons. I don't know, it seems like the initial appeal for the show has already worn off. They can have these characters appear in the other Star Wars shows but I don't know how much longer they can keep Mando and baby Yoda by themselves.

I think the GENERAL premise has gotten a little tired. Like, it's been years now. Is Grogu going to talk, or evolve, or what are we doing there? Just hanging out with Mando doing cute stuff -- that I'm real tired of. And I'm not sure a season-long mission to undo one "mistake" in 30 seconds of a last season episode may be the best route to go.

Problem is that it hasn't even remotely been that long for the characters. The decision to do BOBF really threw things off to an extent. It also doesn't help that modern T.V. is really nothing more than mini-series.

When I was a kid a T.V. show had 30 or more episodes and a mini-series like Stephen King's The Stand were 8 episode mini-series special events. Now a regular T.V. show barely exists, so there is now time to flesh out a story. It's more like whatever they could've gotten into a movie broken down into 8 parts.

All caught up. I'm not so sure about this season, honestly.

I really don't understand why the writers are so obsessed with Mandalorion culture. It also doesn't really make sense as a whole. They dialed back on baby Yoda being the main focus of the show, due to it not being new and fresh anymore.

Latest episode was a bit garbage. But it was nice seeing Christopher Lloyd. Jack Black was oh-kay but Lizzo can't act.

Episode 7 was cool! Captain Pellaeon from the books and big stuff. How good that things are finally moving... one episode before the end of the season.

It was awful - it was as bad as Busta Rhymes doing kung-fu in Halloween and overacting like this was his long-awaited hero moment on film, yet not intended as parody.

You won't like this. But that was my favorite scene in all of the original Halloween movies. I was laughing out loud hysterically as opposed to being bored with it all (it probably has a lot to do with when I finally saw them and after what I'd seen before them). But I didn't particularly like the Halloween movies until H20.

Mandalorian finale... bombastic and great action scenes! However... we only moved an inch forward, if that. And there isn't anything new given to look forward to. No surprises. Tune into season 4 for "secrets of Mandalore" I guess. But nothing is teased that wasn't already teased.

I'll have to watch it today if I can. Really curious as to if it's truly becoming the "Bo-Katan Show".
