The Mandalorian: Chapter 17: The Apostate (2023)
Season 3, Episode 1
9/10
Good old fashioned Western...in Space of course.

Warning: Spoilers
For me Mando as a series works best when it is him undertaking a 'simple' mission within the boundary of a single ep. This is beautifully short and to the point, not an ounce of fat on this ep.

Also when it is somewhat distinct and separate from all the other Star Wars 'established' film characters. This is back to that, at least for the first ep

The beauty of this series is, perhaps even more clearly than even the original films, this is a Western in space, you even get the 'Sergio Leone' stylee close up on eyes during a gun fight in this particular chapter.

Grogu gets more than his fair share of cute moments. Not 100% sure about the Pirates of the Caribbean style baddie, we will see where that is going I guess...

Thank goodness. Not quite up to the brilliant level of Andor for me, but a hell of a good ride in the old saddle!

More please.
