Yeah, they’ve no idea what this show is about anymore. Mando isn’t Andor, doing what they just did isn’t the appeal of this show, nor has it ever been. Make a different show to explore the state of the galaxy in the post-ROTJ world since the VII-IX trilogy fucked up that part of the setting worldbuilding, but come on don’t put this in the middle of my nice, EIGHT EPISODES LONG show about Mando and Mandalorian culture (which they’ve been failing to make very compelling in this season so far).

Remove the Coruscant section from this episode and it’s pretty good… but only as a (literal) 10min epilogue to the previous episode. Putting those two Mando episodes in Boba Fett really was a poor decision in so many spheres it’s baffling - I wonder if they actively sabotaged themselves, or if one of the creatives or suits really had that bad of an idea.
