Not just Empire and Rebels. It's fun.

yeah, series should be perfectly fine...unless you notice an episode titled The Last Mandalorian. in which case it may be ready to jump the shark. or sarlacc.

Re: Mandalorian

Pretty great episode. Tied alot of things together. A few surprises and now the story can progress and there's more of a plot.

I guess the last few episodes were just fillers.

Re: Mandalorian

Not every episode has to tie into the main story arc.

I love seeing some different adventures and the life of a Mandolorian.. The Star Wars universe feels alive and that is what I want out of the series.

That's fine but lately it just feels like filler episodes. Like when they ended up in that village. The whole plot was about them helping defend the village. It just seemed pointless and a complete waste of an episode.

I want to love this series, I hate being so critical. But lately it's been very basic and too easy to read what happens next.

That's why I appreciated this one. It caught me off guard a few times and left me hanging for next week and wanting more.

That's where we take different paths. I haven't seen the latest episode yet but the last few felt like it was about a guy answering temp job listings on craigslist one week to the next. I don't mind them showing different parts of the galaxy but it seems completely random the last few weeks.

I understand that but the thing is the season is pretty short only 8 episodes so 3 episodes is a lot of the season to just be like filer.

Re: Mandalorian

Which is why it's probably not filler, and will be called back to. Without that context, it feels like filler. We saw this with the most recent episode
