I’m trying to hold back and make sure I’m not getting caught up in the hype, but The Mandalorian could be my favorite Star Wars content of all time. I starting thinking this last season, but held off to see if the second season was on par. Well, this second season in my opinion has surpassed the first.
I love movie theaters, nothing else like them, especially for a Star Wars movie. But there is also something special about a TV series coming into your home on a weekly basis. TV has it’s own nostalgia from when I was a kid, and The Mandalorian has tapped into that.
Things feel bigger and more intense in movies, but TV has the time to go deeper into characters and their world. I love all of Star Wars, and I’m not suggesting one part is more essential or definitive than another, just that The Mandalorian is the exact content I’ve been waiting decades for, and it hasn’t disappointed.
