"Set within the timeline of The Mandalorian, these inter-connected shows, along with future stories, will excite new audiences, embrace our most passionate fans, and will culminate in a climactic story event.” Kathleen Kennedy, Disney Plus Investor Day, December 10, 2020

I think this quote speaks to those who are finding it hard to see past the ‘Boba Fett’ title.

If you are creating an inter-connected timeline then you can do that by finding a reason for characters to show up in Jabba’s palace (and risk it feeling shoehorned) or you can take a sojourn to another part of the Galaxy (as the last two episodes did).

Let’s hope that when it does “culminate in a climactic story event” it does indeed feel satisfying.
