Disney has made decent productions in the past but they seem to be falling into this pit of lazy writing. They won't stop as long as it rakes in the money, this goes for a lot of their recent shows and movies hiding weak plots under the skin of "entertainment" ruining good development and losing intelligent structure. Then there's the woke culture, but let's not get into that. It comes to my attention that all they care about is overdone morals and merchandise. I read a review where someone said it was like Disney are hiring 13 year old fans to write these episodes now, it certainly seems like it. Bo Katan Kryze and Din Djarin were wasted potential, they deserved much more.

I watched a video a while back on an essay viewing producers are taking over writers especially from Disney. So visions on how stories are structured are now becoming based on how a producer wants it to look, because Disney are right behind them. Fans want more Grogu cuteness so they throw it into the story even if it makes no sense or is just pathetic.

The Mandalorian was a good show to watch in it's prime, it showed the latest Star Wars trilogy how to bring the magic and thrill back into the Saga but keep that core narrative. Now it's just joining the rest down in the bin of forgetful plots. The opening sequence to this episode didn't feel like Star Wars at all, more of a low rated episode of Doctor Who. It drowns out core story for big budgeted production and eye candy visuals. Disney can afford it so why should they stop? I've seen shows with next to no budget master better at story than this.

Grogu does literally nothing now but "LoOk CuTe", what development was there one time is now him just flipping through the air like an inanimate object and using his force for games. "But it sells the toys", they would say for the same reason the latest trilogy was made. Disney can produce great quality stories, but when they get greedy, it's best to just walk away.

I really am hoping these next 2 episodes will be excellent but i feel like the show will be axed after this season. Maybe it's for the best.

Worst Episode of the series. Infact this entire Season has been 10% story and 90% comic filler. Where's the depth we had before?! Well, i think Dave Filoni left to write the upcoming Ashoka series so what writers were left had all the pressure before the deadlines, that's why this season seems empty. Disney wanted a season 3 despite it having limited writers, it's self explanatory really.

Please make the next 2 episodes justify this Season's downfall.

6/10.

What has happened to this show? This season has been bad, but now it's unwatchable. Not even the Doc could save it.

For one, I can't believe how bad the dialogue is.

Here's some examples: 'We're privateers...individuals for hire.' (thanks for thinking I'm a moron) 'Engaging automated guidance.' Mando 'What happened?' (are you kidding? How stupid has he become?) Bo-Katan 'They've taken control of the ship.' (why doesn't she say 'Are you deaf, or just dumb?') I guess we're going for a ride.' (great deduction) Mando: 'Why do they have imperial droids on an independent world?' Bo-Katan 'It's the outer rim (go on...) your guess is as good as mine.' (what?) 'Din Djarin and Bo-katan Krieze, your presence has been requested by the leadership of the planetary democracy.' Bo 'perhaps at a later time.' 'This is not a request.'

The plot is boring, the characters are stupid, the dialogue is horrible, and the acting is like children pretending in their back garden. This should actually get cancelled.

This is definitely the worst episode in the whole series so far. I mean seriously lizzo???

The story of this season is sooo unfocused, unnecessary characters come out of nowhere.

This season could have been great for the development of grogu and the mandalorian, but so far, none of that...... at all!

I am seriously sad, this series was really really good the first two seasons, but this season is a total mess, especially those couple last episodes.

In this episode, lizzo was terrible, she is definitely not an actress and she will never be.

They still have two episodes left and I don't think they will do big things, but i hope they will redeem themselves, just a little bit.

We are almost at the end of the season and I still feel like we are wasting time! I gave the previous episodes a pass cause i thought by this point things would pick up... but I could not be more wrong! This episodest was one of the slowest and most pointless this season. It basicly translates to pointless side quest to advance the plot! Not even Jack Black or Christopher Lloyd could save it.

Every episode hits the excact same beat this season: side quest, something important around Bo Khatan, the end! By the way.. the last part felt rushed with little satisfaction! I have very little faith that the final episodes will deliver! Too many plotlines are almost on hold, so i fear things will either be rushed or end on a cliffhanger..

At this point i almost wish it ended with season two! I don't think they will top that based on what they have given us this season.

This show has transformed out of all recognition. No longer is it the man with no name in space but the man with no purpose in space.

Mando was undeniably the coolest SCIFI character STAR WARS had dished up in a long long time. The show has now been turned into the Rebels cartoon. Yes you could argue, that was it's natural progression but compared to what we got in season 1 this is really uninspired and predictable, childish storytelling.

Although chapter 22 was fun, there is nothing here worth talking about. It was grade C level writing at best, much like the rest of season 3.

I envisioned so much more for this show. When we have the likes of Andor which is such high quality with great characters with a true Star Wars aesthetic. I'm shocked Favreau and crew did not capitalise on taking Mando in this direction instead. What a wasted opportunity.

I'm pretty sure crowbarring in The Book Of Boba Fett, has not helped this shows maturity and has inadvertently sucked the life out of Favreau's creative flow. He is clearly spreading himself too thin and it really shows. Better luck on Mando Season 4. This one is a complete dud.
