I don’t think this show is supposed to have a main story... Jango put it best “I’m just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe”... seems like the theme of the show to me.

I'm actually surprised it's not going on a short break due to Rise of Skywalker

This show is honestly so bad in my opinion... Last episode we had the stereotypical assassin girl with the attitude, the "hulk" character, the rough-around-the-edges smack talking mercenary (fucking Bill Burr...) like I get that star wars is a space western to begin with so it follows a formula but Jesus, such uninspired writing.

It's a kids show tbh. Not the "dark and gritty" series we were promised. It's basically a live action version of a cartoon. Writing is lame af at the moment. It might pick up in the next couple seasons though many shows don't have the best initial seasons. But I think a big issue is the format. Episodic shows are okay but maybe when you have 20+ episode seasons. If it's an 8 episode season you gotta tell a story

Finally some good fucking food
Pretty good episode basically exactly what I was hoping for. I am surprised they killed Kuill and the Client though. Or maybe one or both of them are still alive but idk. But good they're not shying away from killing major characters. If Kuill is dead that might open up to have IG-11 join the crew because who else is he going to go to? I'm hoping whatever happens next episode gets Mando, Cara, and IG together as a crew perhaps on the run from the empire. I really want them to be regulars
My only issue with this episode was baby Yoda's force heal... What the fuck? This is some sequel trilogy type shit here in fact I'm pretty sure Rey is going to do exactly this or something similar so that might be why this episode aired before the movie... I don't think people should be able to use the force in life and death type situations because it undermines Anakin's arc. If this baby with no training can save a guy from dying, surely the chosen one could save Padme without help from Papa Palp

I don't know how much you read into the leaks... but it is much worse than this in the Sequels...

This was definitely an improvement... But still, half the season was irrelevant. You could have skipped the last 2 episodes and it would not have mattered.

The Empire wants baby Yoda (or a cloned version of him) to fully heal Sheev probably.

It would be better to not be stained by it and be it's own thing but on the other hand it's possible they could actually improve some of the things in it... But there's not much of a chance for that. The whole thing is just bad it cannot be retconned into anything decent it's just not possible. Probably best from them to stay away from the ST. Sadly it looks like they won't

I actually really wish The Client didn’t die... I think his character was the most interesting on the show. I’m not sure how unique Moff Gideon will be I think Werner Herzog should’ve been the main villain

I feel there was more to him then we got to see. But who knows, maybe he's only injured at this point and returns in the next chapter.

This episode packed a lot into it, considering it wasn't even the longest. The ambush by the campfire was a really neat scene, and until the final moments, I wasn't expecting any major characters to die. I like the dynamic of Mando and Cara so far, so hopefully they'll stick together beyond the finale.
The Force Heal was an interesting moment, I wonder how that'll play out in the grander scheme of things. Overall, this is easily my favorite episode since The Sin and maybe my favorite of the series.

I just watched the final two episodes, I liked this one might have been my favorite in the season. It’s nice that everything got tied together, I wanted more with Cara and the IG. The ugnaught was ok but he was too static for me. I like the bounty guild guy as well.
Moff Gideon was cool, you have to be pretty fucked up to be “executed” for war crimes in the empire I’d imagine... unless he got “executed” by the New Republic. That part is unclear. No idea if he’s sort of a rogue imperial or a normal imperial that escaped the republic.
I actually like Navarro as a planet as well, it’s sort of bland but idk it’s a cool outlaw haven that isn’t a desert planet....
