The Mandolorian
Jun. 15th, 2020 06:38 pmI've been a bit slow to catch up on The Mandalorian (because when am I not slow to catch up on TV with all these things I need to stream at some point?) but when I finally did get to it, I watched the whole thing in a week, then made my friends sit and watch the whole thing with me, then watched the behind-the-scenes stuff. And, uh, ordered some action figures. What I'm saying is that I liked it a lot.
This surprised me a bit, as I've always been a person who liked Star Wars rather than loving it. I've seen each of the movies a couple of times and enjoyed them, but when asked which giant nerd franchise to choose I've never hesitated about picking Trek instead.* While I do love the BioWare video games I put that down more to a devotion to BioWare than love of Star Wars itself. However, I do enjoy a good space Western, and ... various other elements of this that I will now put behind a cut, I guess.
( Spoilers that are extremely mild and don't actually spoil anything, unless you've been living under a rock on Tatooine and somehow don't know about the Mandolorian's co-star. )
* Of course the real answer to 'which space thing is the best one?' is Babylon 5 but it doesn't have 'star' in the title so nobody includes it in the question.
