- Title: The Mandalorian – Season Two
- IMDb: link
After finishing the story of the Mandalorian (Pedro Pascal) and Grogu at the end of the First Season of The Mandalorian, the pair were thrown back together in The Book of Boba Fett. This makes the Second Season feel like a major step back for both characters, Grogu has abandoned his journey to become a Jedi and Din Djarin has returned to the strict ways of his upbringing despite learning to let go of those at the end of the previous season.
The Second Season isn’t bad. It certainly has it’s moments which include Din’s cult accepting him, Grogu, and even Bo-Katan Kryze (Katee Sackhoff) after their return from Mandalore leading to the united group’s return to their homeworld in the season finale. And Grogu gets his own mode of transportation that is both incredibly cute and quite deadly (even if the episode that introduces it isn’t one of the show’s best). And too many of this season’s episodes are middling with “The Convert” being a complete miss.
Although some speculated that the end to the season may have wrapped up the series, show creator Jon Favreau confirmed he has more stories to tell and expects the show to return. On one hand, that would allow the show the opportunity to go out on better terms. On the other, given its diminishing returns the show has demonstrated, there’s the chance things will only get worse from here.
