Disappointed but not surprised at the lag time. I had a short window to watch it this morning but all that came up was a still photo with no option to play.

I am absolutely hooked on this show. Has a very adult feel to it, kids keep away! I loved how in the first two minutes Mando cuts a dude in half with a FREAKING DOOR!.

The reveal at the end definitely piqued my interest going forward.

so am i the only one waiting on this????.....it's literally the ONLY show they are releasing at launch (besides The High School Musical thing....and ummmm. NO). And for $6.99 per month I get ONE episode per week.

And only one other show I think I might care about in 2020 - The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

Disclosure - my kids are full grown so I don't need disney movies and I have my own digital copies of anything SW or Marvel or Pixar that I want.

I'll wait until I can binge at least 2 seasons of this or this and another show.

How are you guys able to watch, I am unable to connect.


I watched it a couple of hours ago before work (I am in California). I had to logout and login a couple of times and I had to retry a few times when I got the error message, but I eventually got connected and watched the episode.

I couldn't take it any longer so I just got an account on my PC and had zero problems instantly loading.


That. Was. Awesome.

Exactly what I was hoping for.

I was surprised the bounty hunter droid didn't make it further but I dig the jarring effect of abruptly killing a character off. Absolutely love how they've brought back so many of the obscure alien races from the OT.

A friend and I were talking and he hypothesized about the droid that Mando said something along the lines of "I hate Assassin/bounty droids" and that there may end up being multiple IG droids. He then went on to say it would be very entertaining if the were treated in a Kenny from South Park fashion of getting killed off episodically

Need this line in there, "You've lost another bounty Droid" said like Hunt for Red October.

One question is why would the Guild send to Bounty Hunters on the same job?

Seems fairly regulated so to me it looks like someone is setting him up.

Just watched during lunch and really enjoyed it. Beautiful and I loved how it was totally a space western, right down to learning to ride a horse. Props to Ludwig on the score. Perfect blend of sounding like a Star Wars version of an old western soundtrack.

Can wait to watch it play out.

I remember seeing a bunch of headlines about "The Mandalorian finally answers a long standing Star Wars question." which I didn't read because I didn't want spoilers. So watching I kept thinking "what were they talking about?" Turns out it's how they use the bathroom. lol

My biggest surprise.....

Showing whatever that little humanoid creature (same species that sat on Jabba in ROTJ) locked in a cage watching another of his kind turn on a spit being roasted. Kind of sadistic. Surprised the Mouse signed off on that.

That part sold it for me. Take the good parts of the originals, keep all of the lore and setting... and some of it you just gotta roast.

I was finally able to get on and it was glorious. This is everything I have ever wanted from the Star Wars universe. The possibilities are endless.

Man, I was hoping to be able to binge season 1 during the 7 day trial... I hope it's more than new bounties each episode.

I'm pretty certain that the little surprise at the end of Ep1 foreshadows it's going be more than new bounty, stand alone type episodes.

Wild ass speculations but given the species of the asset that the Mandalorian retrieved and the fact that the Imperial officer noted they'd pay full bounty for it delivered alive, half for proof it was killed (if necessary) and the bounty hunting droid was given instructions to terminate (probably as an insurance policy if the Mando failed) this storyline could tie in to the saga in a big way. Maybe it ties in to Palpatine returning in TROS, or Snoke or the First Order. Maybe Anakin wasn't the only breaking the Jedi rules. Of all the species of aliens bringing that one in to the mix can't just simply be homage to fanboys.

Or they just want to get baby Yoda's in the store before Christmas because dam son they're going to sell more of them then porgs.

Can we agree that having a 50 year old baby would really suck?

Not as bad as Mork and Mindy's baby Mearth. Imagine the egg hatches and out pops your middle age baby that looks like Johnathan Winters

I just watched. I enjoyed. Does this movie take place between Return of the Jedi and TFA? Or is it between the prequels and New Hope?

Curious about the number of times the called the Mandolorian the "Mandolorian"

What if he turns out to be an impostor and he isn't actually Mandolorian at all

There would be a reckoning from the remaining Mandolorians.

I like the Stormtroopers who seem to be in hiding in their dirty and worn armor.

I would be willing to bet the merchandise marketing team has a lot of say in this series.

Maybe they want to see if they can teach the little guy proper sentence structure?

I am hoping this is purely a stand alone series and they don't have a tie in with any of the main characters from the other films. That is too much of a rabbit hole. I am ok with them mentioning events in passing but I want this one to be.completely independent. With a whole universe to explore I don't see any reason to muddle it up with the other plotlines.

Well....Mando didn't know who the target was until he met with the Imperial guy. Apollo Creed didn't know when they met at the bar.

Maybe someone else hired the droid...again...without the Guild knowing the target.

Also, it was mentioned that it would be cool for there to be a droid in every ep. Imagine if they all link up to the same neural network.
