    Jon Favreau and his team have made millions of people very happy, and brought tears....

    Incredible. I cant say why I want you all to watch it. Pure joy. I might edit this one day. Utter perfection.
    hypnotoad8128

    This one episode is superior to Disney whole recent trilogy.

    Jon Favreau, thank you for bringing back the childhood joy I experienced watching the original star wars trilogy as a child. You also made me cry too, but I'm okay with that.
    10tomwarne-123

    Yep... they did that. WOW

    Just wow that's all I have to say really. Quite possibly the best episode of the show! Well done Dave Filoni and Disney.

    Also make sure to stick around after the credits.👀

    Siege of Lucasfilm: featuring Jon and Dave

    These two have created some of the best Star Wars content ever and they need to keep going. I'm very wired and exited after watching that episode and that is all I will say because this is the cinema that Star Wars fans should have felt watching the sequel trilogy.
    10TheFirst01

    One of the greatest masterpieces of the last 5 years

    This episode was one of the most wholly satisfying episodes I've ever seen. Emotional to the core, beautifully scored specifically the music for the dark troopers (all hail them), and fantastic sound fx in the fight between Moff and Mando. Just watched the after credits scene while writing this review and it added so much more to the perfection I witnessed in the episode, you definitely won't want to miss it. With this episode, Jon Favreau and company have officially brought back Star Wars. Well done.

    • Trivia
      Aired the day after Jeremy Bulloch, who played Boba Fett in Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983), died.
    • Goofs
      The Dark Troopers pound on the bridge doors. From the inside and the outside, the damage is visible. But there are two overlapping layers to the doors. When opened, the inside of the area where they were pounding shows no buckling, but the inside panel shows evidence of the pounding.
    • Quotes

      The Mandalorian: Are you a Jedi?

      Luke Skywalker: I am.

      [to Grogu]

      Luke Skywalker: Come, little one.

      The Mandalorian: He doesn't want to go with you.

      Luke Skywalker: He wants your permission. He is strong with the Force, but talent without training is nothing. I will give my life to protect the Child... but he will not be safe until he masters his abilities.

      The Mandalorian: [picks up Grogu] Hey, go on. That's who you belong with. He's one of your kind. I'll see you again. I promise.
