It's the second episode that fully solidifies that this new season is a turning point for The Mandalorian's storytelling—the world may still feel small around Din, but it's growing by leaps and bounds too.

If the new season feels more laden with plot, it’s still a show that leaves room for the simple joys that made its first two seasons so beloved.

The story feels less solid than it did in the first two seasons, but thrilling adventure and extreme cuteness remain the joint order of the day in the ongoing adventures of Mando and Grogu.

Success has its privileges, including the freedom to get off to the relatively slow start that The Mandalorian indulged with its third-season debut, reintroducing the central players and a few peripheral ones, while laying out the bones of a plot that might be called Mission to Mandalore.

“The Mandalorian” answered the main question tied to Seasons 1 and 2. Now, it needs to find a new way forward, and there’s a galaxy of paths available.

None of this was extremely thrilling, and there’s no one exciting thing that sets up the rest of the season as a must-see Star Wars adventure, but The Mandalorian has always been fairly good at surprises. We’ll have to see if that’s still the case.

Fans have griped that “The Mandalorian” and lightweight series like the ones that Favreau and Filoni have made thus far are robbing “Star Wars” of what made it special and often, especially with a disposable throwaway, more-of-the-same episode like this, it’s really hard to argue with.

I really love Star wars but Mando series was good but never my jam but season 3 is perfect to me even though there little over filling episode. I am star wars animated series fan i thought it brought that series style into light instead being differentiate it from animation series.

What makes it hard to rate is that it is far weaker than season 1 and 2 but also better than the Obi Wan series and Book of Boba Fett except their Mandalorian episode. It feels often unstructured or cut together from different arcs missing some spots. I was always in the waiting state for “When does this get good”. Don’t get me wrong it is not garbage even if it looks a bit like it in comparison to the better seasons. It has its moments like the rehabilitation program, old characters returning and the final is good (but also a slight disappointment). I would say too much filler and too less awesomeness. This could actually be the end of Disneys Star Wars as Mandalorian was the last thing fans loved. I think I give a 6/10 as it is above average but not awesome. Now the final hope is the Ahsoka show. May the force be with tthem.

Bad writing, you are forced to watch Book of Boba Fett. If not you will be lost because all the things made at the end of season 2 are undone. Seems like someone forced to destroy the original scripts. Plus there are some useless episodes like one w/ Jack Black.
