Well after 3 episodes of Andor I'm good enough to say that this is the best Star Wars has been in years. It's ironic that some of the best Star Wars content either has no Jedi involved or barely has them in there. Hope that Mandalorian S3 continues the trend.

Well there will be Grogu, who may become a Mandalorian Jedi someday in the future (like Rey's Jedi in terms of timeline). If the various shows are establishing a larger plot (Heir to the Empire like) that there is a chance of seeing Ahsoka and perhaps Erza at some point...though more likely in Season Four of the Mandalorian since that will take place after Ahsoka's series.
Still unclear what Skeleton Crew will be about, but it is supposed to take place in the same timeframe as Ahsoka, Book of Boba Fett, and The Mandalorian. Plus there is another project code named Ghost Track 17 by the same producers of The Mandolorian, which I suspect might be a spin off from Ahsoka with the remaining Rebels characters to fill in the gap left by the cancelled Rangers of the New Republic series. The is The Acolyte, which is a High Republic series that will definately feature Jedi.

I'm actually interested in the Ahsoka series and seeing Ezra Bridger again. Although I did like the Kenobi miniseries, Star Wars that focused on Jedi has not reached the same heights of their non-Jedi counterparts in the past few years.
As good as the final season of Clone Wars was and that at least 2 episodes of Visions were great, the recent trilogy had undoubtedly left a bad taste in people mouths about Jedi related stories. Rogue One proved you could make a great Star Wars story with little to know Jedi presence. Sometimes blasters are better off seen that lightsabers.

I didn't watch and have no intention to watch Book of Boba because everyone shits on it, yet they also say you need to watch it to get where Mando Season 3 is going? Man.
People should probably treat Andor as more the exception than the rule, because if you compare SW series to Andor all the time, you'll never probably be satisfied.

I assume there's most likely a recap at the beginning of S3, but those episodes are really worth watching.

Anyway its nice to see Bo-Katan again and hopefully she figures prominently in the season. They dealt with the Cara Dune thing admirably as well, leaving her story open for a graphic novel or something. |

Ok, I was wrong. There's barely a recap at the beginning of S3, and it doesn't get into why Grogu is with Mando again at all. People who skipped Boba Fett will be super confused.
Do we know anything about the timeline? It seems like quite a bit of time has passed since the first season, more than I was thinking. I'll probably get to it eventually, but now that I've missed the train and the second season apparently won't come out for a long while, I'm in no hurry.

Mando has no goals anymore, other than raising Grogu to become a Mandalorian. I hope Grogu will have a sudden growth spur at some point because IIRC he's over 50 but is physically and mentally 5 at best. Bo-Katan is probably the most interesting character right now. She's starting to embrace "the way" and it's only a matter of time before she comes for the Dark Saber, which she deserves given how well she wielded it in ep 2. Mando isn't the leader type, the only reason he's even holding on to it is because it would be against the way to just give it to her.

Its good to see Ahmad Best doing well regardless. Now do Jake Lloyd?
Feels like the Darksaber is tailor made for Grogu (well... aside from a size adjustment) but I'm still not sure how those ears are going to fit inside a helmet. I'm not really sure where S3 is going but I'd assume they're going back to Mandalore eventually. I'm curious if some of the more out of place stuff is setup for Ahsoka but we'll see. |

Season 3's ending was a lot more conclusive than I thought and would make a very satisfying ending to the series. I don't know if another season's already been announced but sometimes it's better to quit while you're ahead. This season already had quite a few so-so eps. And honestly, I'm not sure where it could go from there.
