I kind of wish those supercommandos were Mandalorian. I liked the idea that the Saxons and other pro-Imperial clans were just completely uninterested in any traditional Mandalorian values and only valued might.

Meanwhile I'm STILL trying to get through Andor but every episode feels like the length of a Lord of the Rings movie.

You know, it can be hard to take Gideon seriously since he shares the same name with the Gravity Falls character. Dude, it’s Giancarlo Esposito. His character could be named “Shitty McPoopypants” and most people would go “Oh No, it’s Shitty McPoopyPants!” because he’s playing it.

Definitely did feel like you could just end the whole show there and be happy.
I enjoyed Season 3 a whole bunch, getting some good entertaining 40 mins of Mando each week. I do think part of that is that I spent even less time than usual looking at reactions and theories online about it than before. Helped me enjoy it on its own terms.
Looking around NOW, there are two or three pretty wild theories out there, that I could see people being sad didn't happen this season.

The last two episodes were great, but the first part of this season just didn't feel like it had enough weight to it, especially coming off of the Luke return. Also, Moff Gideon's suit was awesome.

Good season ending Maybe they ended that way {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}Just in case Pedro wanted a break from the Mandoverse since the actor has been busy with other projects recently. Din could have a break while Lucasfilm work on the other Star Wars stuff.
Plus since he’s now committed to always keeping the helmet on, they only really need Pedro’s voice if he has a cameo or something in like Ahsoka or another show/movie.

Pedro was apparently only on set twice in the whole season, which is why this season is the first time Brendan Wayne and Lateef Crowder were credited as co-stars rather than stunt performers: Season 2: Season 3:

You think they'll bring back the biggest enemy and that's paperwork and 1099 Din?

He could have been a legendary pro wrestling heel.

For some reason Moff Gideon was giving me Raul Julia M. Bison vibes in this episode.

I wish we'd gotten more Gideon.
Take that half episode about the Doctor and the Spy that went no where, or the side quest droid investigation episode and cut some of that, and give me a solid 20 minutes on who he is and what he wanted.
He was just a villain, a great scenary chewing fun villain, but a really 2D 'Darth Mando' looking style over substance thing.
I wanted more to make me care and feel he was a genuine threat.
Over all I enjoyed this season, but the shine is definitely off over all.
I'd be happy to have a Bo-Katan series and leave Mando on his farm for a bit now. Grogu needs to grow up and start talking as well.

Gideon lied all the time. I wouldn't be shocked if that was a clone they fought and killed. I'd rather it not be. Comics and Star Wars has me very leery of clone/fakeout crap these days. I'm kinda over "Muu ha ha, you merely killed my clone/robot imposter/stunt double!"
My wife informed me last night that the Axe Wolve(spelling?) dude was "pretty damn handsome". She also was getting super pissed thinking he was going to die. She also thought the ceremony was going to end with the Armorer removing her helmet. She also laughed for a solid 2 minutes with Baby Yoda pounding the "yes/no" buttons. I also laughed... but was kinda secretly happy that ended. A gag like that has a very short shelf life.

Meanwhile I'm STILL trying to get through Andor but every episode feels like the length of a Lord of the Rings movie. Been there. It does get easier once the prison subplot kicks in (the back half of the season). You probably still won't fall in love with the show, or rate it as the best SW product since Empire Strikes Back, like a lot of fans do, but still, it's easier to watch once the heist is done. As for Mando s3, a big fat meh as far as I'm concerned. Then again, I just don't care about the Mandalore lore/Bo-Katan/the Saber, so... my interest has slowly but surely waned.

Man it felt like an end to the show... And I would like it to be.
Its not that I don't enjoy the show or its characters... I just want somebody in the Star Wars universe to get a nice tidy happy ending, and the last shot of this episode had that.
