For me, the real story of The Book of Boba Fett that the producers really wanted to tell all along was the flashbacks. And that’s it. However, the scope of it would be too small to justify a series, so they resolved to continue Mandalorian series through The Daimyo storyline (what they dragged A LOT). Let’s be honest here, the flashbacks could be encapsulated in two episodes and the Daimyo in one episode if we skipped the fillers/Mandalorian storylines, and with the season finale would be a total of 4 episodes worth of real story focusing on Boba and Fennec vs the Pyke Sindicate.

The Hutts, the biker gang, the mayor and his assistant, the Rancor… Mostly of the scenes
involving these characters are filler. We could just have the Hutts giving the rancor as an incentive for Boba to resolve the Pike’s problem for them, then Boba and Fennec chat about the muscle thing, Boba recruiting BK in the bar and the biker gang in that alley and finally Boba’s reunion with the crime lords of Tatooine. That pretty much would sum up the story from the first four episodes of BOBF in the present day. Episodes 5 and 6 has scenes worth too to Boba storyline, but very few.
