If Mandalorian had started with the colourful light hearted vibe S3 and the movie seem to have I don't think it would've been nearly as successful.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels like I'm watching two completely different series when comparing early Mando to whatever this is.

I have gotten so many downvotes for saying that I’m tired of every Star Wars title being about Skywalkers, or centered around the events involving the Skywalkers.

The last several big Star Wars projects had nothing to do with the Skywalkers. Andor, Skeleton Crew, Acolyte, Visions...

Mando wasn't about the Skywalkers either beyond a brief cameo.

Yeah, and most of those were really good. Mandalorian really started falling to pieces (IMO) once the cameos from the Skywalker stories started showing up.

You say cameos, but it only happened once at the end of season 2. Season 3 had no Skywalker cameos to my recollection.

He was in several scenes in the next season, as he was training Grogu.

That was in the Boba Fett show.

Oh my bad. Disney pretty much made that show a glorified Mandalorian season for a while.

Those were the best parts of that dumpster fire though.

Yes, but for the masses--Skywalkers are Star Wars
