At one point this show had almost restored my faith in disney and the star wars franchise. The first season was phenomenal, a 10. Well written, engaging story, good character development, killer score. Pedro Pascal as the mandalorian was casted brilliantly. You really felt for him and his struggles to take care of his foundling. I watched the first season two times, which for me is extremly rare. Also, this was one of the very few series where I stayed for the end credits just to marvel at the exquisite artwork.
After what felt like a long wait the second season finally arrived, and although it was still good but like many series the magic had faded a bit. The new characters that were introduced were weaker than in the first season. Also the story felt less urgent.
After an even longer wait the third season came, but by then my expectations had been lowered substantially. It was yet again still a good watch, but maybe even slightly weaker than the second season. The fact that Pascal was basically only doing voice acting anymore diluted the experience a bit. Some characters like Jack Black and Lizzo felt totally out of place, like someone just decided they had to appear even though they did almost nothing to promote the story.
The final episode was sadly a bit of a letdown, would have wished for more but I guess the way the momentum was moving things forward it was inevitable. Despite the flaws of the latter seasons Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni created something special with this one, thank you for that. This was hands down the best star wars series in recent time...probably for a good while.
