The third season of TheMandalorian has just ended, and while it felt a bit aimless at times, the stronger episodes outweighed the weaker ones.
It’s been a long wait for the third season of The Mandalorian, with several other Star Wars shows getting their time in the sun in between. The refreshingly different Andor, Ewan McGregor’s comeback vehicle Obi-Wan Kenobi, and more Star Wars animated ventures all kept fans occupied while they waited for the further adventures of Din, Grogu, and the rest of the gang.
7. Episode 3 While The Mandalorian has been an overall critical success, one of the fan criticisms has consistently been how inconsistent its episode runtimes are. It goes with the aforementioned point on how some Disney+ originals dilute the strengths of the medium’s long-form format, but The Convert did give a proper “TV hour” runtime to its story. Ironically, though, the pacing of its story feels disjointed and shows how more isn’t always better.
Fans are treated to Din Djarin with Grogu back in tow and visiting old friend Greef Karga for a warm reunion. The Apostate‘s biggest drawback is how much of a “setup” and introductory episode it is despite being more than two seasons into this story and the cast of characters. Still, it does enough to satisfy most fans itching to get invested back into this corner of the Star Wars universe.
4. Episode 2 The Apostate is followed up with an episode that helps move the season along in the form of The Mines of Mandalore. Focusing on the comeback and reintegration of the Mandalorian people was one of season 3’s stronger points, and this second episode is a great journey of growth for both Din and Bo-Katan.
The leader of these raiders is a colorfully campy, if unremarkable, character, but the conflict and the action set pieces it props up make this one highly entertaining. Excellent shots of legions of Mandalorians descending upon the settlement and the season’s continued love of aerial/space dogfights make The Pirate a winner.
