so you [i]are[/i] American! There’s no tits or gore but plenty of violence/deaths/cold blooded murders which obviously morally is fine 😂Definitely it’s Disney violence.
Episode Two rattled off - enjoying this.
Hmmm, thought that was a bit meh compared to the first ep!
The kids and I have thoroughly enjoyed the first 2 episodes.
They are going to sell a metric boatload of small green soft toys., which is probably the point.
Ep3 has ramped it up nicely. I'm expecting great things from now on.
I’m up to episode 2 and loving it.

Don't worry, episode 3 will soon put a stop to that. Though eddiebaby loved it so who knows?
Hmm...it's turning into the baby Yoda show from what I've seen so far.
I thought it was ok…. just ok.
Pretty much sums it up. To be fair, it's basically a kids' show and it is much better than the prequel movies.
Episode 3, fantastic.
Ooooh! He’s got some new bling.
If the little green thing is 50 years old, that would put his birth at the time of a young Darth Sidious, approximately the same as Annakin. Anyway, I liked the first two episodes. It is a bit soft though - a bounty hunter with a heart of gold. I thought that what Dave Filoni did with Rebels and the later Clone Wars was excellent and expect similar from this. Looking forward to part 3 tonight.
Part 3 is pretty good too really starting to open the story up, like others have mentioned like all Star Wars it’s a family story and film.
I've been enjoying it but feeling like there's something missing, last episode lost me a bit though, the "one of us" crew and the ending scene were painfully cheesy.
Yep still enjoying it
it's an OK space western. the only thing it's missing is the pre shoot out linger on the eyes Sergio Leone shots.
it is much better than the prequel movies.
The prequel movies are the better movies out the lot, IMO Revenge of the Sith is the best Starwars movie.
Mandalorian is good, the first three episodes have def been builder episodes, excited to see where it goes!

Yes hadn't thought of that, Baby Yoda must have been born just before the original trilogy in the timeline, Yoda must have stopped off for some coke and hookers before ending up on Dagobah
I really expected better from Jon Favreau but he seems to have dug very deeply into his bag of cliches. A magic macguffin introduced at the start of the episode which is 100% guaranteed to get him out of a “tough” spot later (and then never be used again 😂), the last second cavalry charge, bad guy saved from certain death cos the bullet hit his pocket watch so he can be back to ham it up in the next episode; it feels like a badly written 90s TV show. Walker: Texas Ranger was more sophisticated than this 😂. Looks great though 😀

I was okay with it, until the fly-by salute. Not only was it cheesy, it was very 'real world' like "god speed" in TLJ.
The prequel movies are the better movies out the lot
Bit disappointed in Ep4. A remake of the Magnicent 7 - er the Mag 2 wasn’t what is was expecting. Like the new girl but no real development of story arc. No real feeling of threat.
No real feeling of threat
It's Disney now, they can only go so far with the violence. While it was a bit Seven Samurai, I still liked it. It casts a wide net and can appeal to a whole family rather than having to be Rodians being beheaded and Twi'leks being set upon by roaving Tusken Raider rape gangs
Ep5: The cantina at Mos Eisly spaceport? What's not to like?
Its starting to feel very Stargate SG1 to me, but Baby Yoda is cute.
I'm an episode behind and it pains me to say that I could happily never watch another episode, it's difficult to describe but it just feels very hollow to me.
It's getting boring now - especially as I'm also watching Watchmen & His Dark Materials. This is starting to feel a bit monster of the week, like a through back to the 90s tele.
Will watch as I eat my dinner - but it's severely lacking in any substance.
If it died today I wouldn't miss it.
Yeah 2 behind now, I'll probably catch up this week though as the Cantina sounds cool at least!
I actually miss those kind of shows that you could just dip in and out of. X-Files was an example of a really great one! (Apart from the alien conspiracy crap). I guess they are still making them (NCIS etc) but they've definitely fallen out of fashion.This is starting to feel a bit monster of the week, like a through back to the 90s tele.
If it's anything like Clone Wars or Rebels, it'll take at least a season to warm up. And I suspect you'll start to see some links to The Rise of Skywalker soon.
Say i wanted to watch said series but was technically challenged, maybe someone would pm me some assistance?
It's a bit challenging - My ISP blocks torrent sites, so I need to load up my vpn software.
5,4,3,2,1, post gone !
I really liked episode 6. I wonder how the last two will set up the next series or tie it into other events
Holy shitballs looks good in 4K

Can’t believe they haven’t released all the episodes in one hit. I was looking forward to a second binge viewing
Presumably so people can't just binge them on on the 7 day free trial.
Pointless when most folk have already streamed them. This is a second run for those that really wanted to see it. Disney actually contributed to mass piracy with their staggered release of the service the numpties.
Don’t get me wrong - I agree, but just stating why they would think it was the best approach.
Disney didn't have a lot of choice, the staggered start was due to the expiration of various licensing deals, deals expired later in Europe so the Disney+ launch was delayed until they finished. As above gradual release of their flagship series to prevent binge watching in the free trial.
If you're going to criticise Disney you can't do it for being commercially acute.
Thought episode 1 was pretty good, episode 2 whilst great to view felt a bit more filler, I suppose it introduced a lot with Mandos new friend.
Only just got the chance to watch these… oh yes! They got it just right, didn’t they?!
It was so good.
The teens loved it, we all did. Proper humour that didn’t stop you from investing in the characters, and caring about what happens to them.
I very much enjoyed it.
We loved it. I liked its slightly slow style at times and it’s pared back story.
Just needed a cameo form Clint to finish it off.
Just needs another 6 series.
My kids call this Space Justified..
