no it's not actually Yoda, since it takes place after the original trilogy and Yodas death. It is only the third member of Yodas species to make it on film and considering Yoda was thought to be the last of his species, its a pretty big reveal

I'm so hooked on the Mandalorian after the ending of the first episode!
Cannot wait for episode 2 tomorrow!
I also like that a lot of the trailer was covered in the first episode so I really have no idea where it goes from here.
Cannot wait for episode 2 tomorrow!

Two weeks after delivering a dialogue-free episode with a 40 minute heist and a breathtaking 20 minute chase sequence, Mr. Robot gave audiences a 4 character, 5 act play that USA aired without commercials.
It's also an episode that proves one of the most powerful meditations on the ripple effects of trauma that I can ever recall gracing the small screen and Remi absolutely kills it.

I had a feeling this one was going to be small and like a play when I heard it was commercial free. At first I was a tiny bit annoyed, believing it was going to be a detour in the overarching plot. But I was dead wrong. This episode unlocked something so big and so heartbreaking. Rami has been so good throughout the series, but this was I believe the best of his work so far. Incredible, tense, upsetting episode.Two weeks after delivering a dialogue-free episode with a 40 minute heist and a breathtaking 20 minute chase sequence, Mr. Robot gave audiences a 4 character, 5 act play that USA aired without commercials.

I was going to write just about the same thing...so far this season has been the best...and it gets better each episode.
Last night's was one of the best hours of television I've watched in a very long time.
Writing, acting, cinematography, music were all exceptional.

Looks like @Woob_woob answered my question about the timeline, so I'm now just swinging by to say The Mandalorian is rad and I'm super invested two episodes in.

I groused lightly about it in the Star Wars thread already, but I’m not quite feeling invested. The show’s entertaining, and I’m glad to see the kind of Star Wars story we’ve all been waiting for (c’mon, “Boba Fett Tv Show” was on every fan’s wish list, it’s not exactly a risky proposition), but I’m a little emotionally underwhelmed. The music is *very* serious, but the patent silliness of Star Wars causes it to undercut itself. And the remoteness and anonymity of the Mandalorian makes it hard to care about him (turns out having eyes and a face helps make a character relatable to audiences).
I don’t mean to look a gift horse in the mouth, and I’m definitely locked in for watching the whole season; I just don’t quite feel the hype.

That's actually one of the things that has drawn me in the most. It makes it feel like a Space Western.

Oh for sure; they’re totally going for a spaghetti western Man With No Name thing with him. It’s just not landing for me. When Clint Eastwood rolls into town with no sign of where he’s been, where he’s going, or even why, I’m still drawn in and intrigued to see how he reacts to whatever he finds in that town. The Mandalorian, on the other hand, just is, and the utter lack of reaction to most things makes it hard to feel much interest or investment. Most of those movies push your investment in everyone else around the blank protagonist, and I think if the ensemble cast around him gets more fleshed out the show will really hit its mark.
Some coworkers were talking about the second episode this morning, and someone brought up the fact that they feel the Mandalorian is a lot less capable than he seemed in the first episode, just going into the cave without a plan. Another coworker said that was the point, that he was overconfident. Then someone asked what gave them that impression; it’s not like he said or emoted in any way that would give lie to that motivation. Everyone had different takes on the Mandalorian’s attitudes and character. I’d say that’s *too* far in the direction of anonymous.

Agreed! A bit hard to judge at this point (2 episodes that barely total over an hour), but it's really going for a unique niche of quiet vignettes instead of the megadose of plotting that dominates most scifi TV. In the SW universe it feels most like the opening sequence of ANH, with the droids wandering in the wasteland, which has always reminded me of the desert scene in Leone's Good the Bad and the Ugly, so it's really getting me in that way. Critics would say this is because the directive of these lesser Star Wars projects is to not rock the boat, but if this is a restraint I think it informs and enhances the show's direction. The last thing I wanted was another sci-fi intrigue drama with SW paint.
