When should I stop watching the Mandalorian?

I'm considering finally getting around to watch the Mandalorian. What season does it start to fall off?

Like 10:30 pm, a good night's sleep in important.

[-] SupraMario@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

10:30? The fuck you think we're in college still? 9pm we're out

[-] Hellnikko@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago

End with the season 2 finale. Then pretend nothing else happens after.

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 5 points 2 months ago

ooh. I might have done that. I ended when baby yoda left with someone.

You might want to watch Chapter 5 of The Book of Boba Fett, you don't need to watch any other episodes.

Technically the Bad Ending but understandable

Watch all of it and make up your own mind.

It gets dumber after season 2, but it's still kinda fun. For live action SW shows, it's basically Andor >>> Mando S1-2 > Skeleton Crew >> everything else shuffled around according to personal taste.

[-] minnow@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

I enjoyed the whole thing, but I also had a friend who had already seen it all help me adjust my expectations appropriately.

I think, with the proper expectations, it's not hard to enjoy anything.

[-] NENathaniel@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 months ago

I think the whole thing was rather mediocre but, I enjoyed each season roughly equally. Imo there's not real quality dropoff, it just changes a bit.

If you haven't already, watch Andor, way better. Acolyte is decent

[-] IWW4@lemmy.zip 8 points 2 months ago

The first season was fun. I dumped the show after a few episodes of the second season as it was all the same shit again just not as much fun. I haven’t watched anymore.

Even a bad episode of Mandalorian is still, like, perfectly fine. I’d just watch until you’re no longer enjoying it, or you finish it—whichever comes first.

[-] ComradeMiao@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

I don’t find it worth it at all. Rewatch andor instead

He didnt ask for advice on how to fall asleep lol. Andor is the most boring show I've ever tried paying attention to. I think I've watched both season's twice trying to find the appeal and couldn't tell you a single fuckin thing that happens in any of the episodes. Couldt tell you the storyline. Couldnt tell you anything about the show other than it was just completely bland, boring and entirely forgettable.

Dont mean to sound like im discrediting anyone who enjoys it. Im just giving my experience watching the show.

Stop caring about what anyone says on social media and decide for yourself.

"Do I waste my time doing that? " "you must decide yourself if that will waste your time"

Thank you, you're very useful.

[-] LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 months ago

I've seen 1 till 3 liked them all

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

All three seasons are decent.

Proper watch order is Season 1, Season 2, Book of Boba Fett episodes 5, 6, and 7, Season 3.

[-] solrize@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 months ago

Like drug addiction, the best time to stop is before it starts.

[-] TehBamski@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I enjoyed the first two seasons and found that season three was where it slopes downward in overall quality. (Not to say that there weren't a couple of great episodes.

I found myself not liking episodes six and seven of season three. Episode six felt as if it were a filler episode with celebrity appearances. I believe that the execs saw how well the audience responded to having Bill Burr (Mayfeld) in the show as a one off and figured that they could 'boost' the popularity of the show with others. As for episode seven, I found myself removed from the action and story with its unrealistic. What I mean is that the Mandalorians are supposed to be some of the best fighters in the galaxy, and it didn't come across as such while watching the long battle.

[-] dan1101@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Watch them all, but watch the episode with Bill Burr and Din driving the truck many times.

[-] uhdeuidheuidhed@thelemmy.club 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Episode 0. I've never seen it, but it seems like the kind of dumb normie-show that I wouldn't like. I base this solely off of all the morons I see that went apeshit over it when it came out.

Instead, treat yourself to some high-brow art like Undone. You probably haven't heard about it because it's an Amazon Prime exclusive, and most of the idiots today "consuming" digital entertainment have been conditioned to only see what's a part of their paid streaming service(s).

Since we're smarter than the average idiot, we can stream it for free here: https://hydrahd.io/ No account or credit card info required, but you will need an adblocker (which you should already have, but many morons complain about ads to this day without realizing adblockers exist.)

When you don't enjoy it anymore. For me that was towards the end of season 1, but I can understand that many enjoy the series more than I did.

[-] wizbiz 1 points 2 months ago

I couldn't finish the first episode it was so boring. If you're not interested let it go. If it is interesting keep going. It's as simple as that

[-] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I enjoyed the whole thing, although I'm not really a StarWars Fan, so idk if it would be good if you judge it by that standards.

I'm not sure what kinda of a question this is lol, just keep watching and stop when you get bored. Its the same rule of thumb for every show.
