The Mandalorian - The Complete Second Season

After finishing the story of the Mandalorian (Pedro Pascal) and Grogu at the end of the First Season of The Mandalorian, the pair were thrown back together in The Book of Boba Fett. This makes the Second Season feel like a major step back for both characters, Grogu has abandoned his journey to become a Jedi and Din Djarin has returned to the strict ways of his upbringing despite learning to let go of those at the end of the previous season.

The Mandalorians – The Return

The Third Season of The Mandalorian comes to a close with the battle over Mandalore, and, as I correctly called, not a single hero met their deaths in the action-packed but pretty predictable final episode. Even the most minor of the Mandalorian clan make it out of the battle without a scratch. There’s plenty of action here involving the Mandalorians fighting the Imperial Commandos of Moff Gideon (Giancarlo Esposito) and destroying the Imperial Remnant facility which I’m assuming must have had a greater purpose than just feed Gideon’s ego and secret experiments.

The Mandalorians – Guns for Hire / The Spies

The two episode building to the season finale focus on bringing the Mandalorian tribes back together and the return to their homeworld. Well, that is except for another side quest that takes up 90% of “Guns for Hire,” but at least this one involves our main character. Feeling like a mix of world building and rehash of previously defeated villains, with some odd Asimov-ish droid plot thrown in, neither episode is bad but neither really focuses on either the characters or the plot offering something new. That’s not to say there aren’t enjoyable moments, such as Grogu thoroughly enjoying his new murderous mode of transportation (which also allows him to more easily communicate to the other characters).
