So I’ve just watched S03E01… I hate to be that guy but… I’m not getting good vibes from it. Felt too obvious, too simplistic and leaning more into a Kennedy stance than a Favareau stance. Maybe we’ve been spoiled by the good ObiWan and the great Andor but this just felt a bit too happy, silly, fun, a to b to c… Let’s see how the season progresses, cos I really don’t want them to mess this up :(

ObiWan good? Mate... Have you got any of that stuff you're smoking, spare?  I could do with some escaping from reality right now... ;)

I watched the first episode last night and it was safe. 

I'm hoping they ramp things up a little. Felt a little spoiled by how good the first season on Andor was.

I agree, I enjoyed Obi Wan.  Book of Fett on the other hand... not so good.

Book of Fett was a perfect example of what happens when Kennedy interferes with, and sabotages, Favreau's work.  Kenobi was... better... But had a LOT of issues with Mary Sue-ism and established history.

100% - she has no right involving herself in storytelling, she’s a hack who relies upon cliches and tropes.

3 was good but not exactly what I was wanting from a Mando episode. The dog fight was cool though.

 

Also, not enough Grogu...

MORE GROGU!

Loved this episode. It had some real intrigue and showed the New Republic to be massively flawed. Genuinely the best episode of S3 so far :)

But then it would have returned to the nest. It's like the bird chilled out overnight somewhere else, then arrived at the nest when the gang arrived; or is was a trap, and the bird used the foundling as bait knowing the other guys would show up.

Bo-Katan even stated she followed it to its nest.  Why it didn't feed the foundlings at that time is another question...

Is it me but when the armorer was forging Grogu's rondel the back looked like it had some sort of circuity?

Though it was a short episode it was pretty good and got to see who saved Grogu during the Order 66 ordeal.

OK, of all the actors I thought I might see appearing in Mando, Christopher Lloyd was not one of them!

Think I was more prepared to see him over Lizzo! Definitely an ensemble for this episode

I had to google who that is... :p

Zod, I'm old!

Don't feel bad I did the same...

Overall it was good episode.

Spoiler

I'm glad Bo-Katan didn't have to fight Din Djarin over the dark saber and that she also got her crew and ships back.

The scene with them in the Droid bar was pretty good and they too didn't want to be replaced with humans and they enjoyed working for them.
