I have seen five episodes of The Mandalorian now. It’s really very good, and I’m not sure why comparisons to Star Wars animated shows are a bad thing. They’re really very good too.

This is a show clearly designed with the international audience in mind. It is very visual, and therefore not something you can “watch” while doing something else.

The fourth episode was a little meh, and seemed to be a mix of A-Team and Three Amigos plotlines, but that third episode? Hot damn. There are very few shows that evoke the innocent glee of being a small child again, and very few moments in shows. The Mandalorian has one of them.

Solid show with some epic flourishes.
