The Mandalorian: Chapter 20: The Foundling (2023)
Season 3, Episode 4
4/10
This is not the way
23 March 2023
Where the first season of THE MANDALORIAN managed to capture me with its Spaghetti Western flair and its obvious inspiration by LONE WOLF AND CUB and really managed to outshine all the other bland or ridiculous Disney Star Wars product, and the second season at least had some interesting and engaging story lines and episodes, this third season took a bit of a nosedive.

Specifically this episode made me realise that Star Wars is irredeemably dead now. The whole season so far has done little but make the other two seasons redundant and pointless, and the result is that now, nothing really happens. Add in really stupid things like this bird-dragon taking some Mandalorian kid during what I can only describe as amazingly awkward "training" with a Grogu doll commercial being shown, make other characters change their views without any apparent reason, and you can picture me sitting here, wondering where things started to go wrong with this show.

This is becoming tiresome, and I have to say that this might be the episode that made me stop watching THE MANDALORIAN or anything Star Wars, really.
