The Mandalorian – Chapter 24: The Return
Is it just me, or did that feel like a fitting conclusion to the adventures of Din Djarin and Grogu – not to mention the Mandalorians as a whole – until such time as other stories in the Star Wars universe require them to come out of retirement to help friends take down the latest […]
The Mandalorian – Chapter 21: The Pirate Review
Now we’re getting somewhere! After a slow start to season three (with some pretty great highs, but a lot of running in place in terms of a central season arc), The Mandalorian has placed its chips on the table to let us know just what we’re looking at for the remainder of the season arc. […]
The Mandalorian – Chapter 17: Apostate Review

Andor – Rix Road Review
Of course Cassian and the inmates on Narkina 5 were helping to build the Death Star. Of course they were. Because, like everything else in this exceptional first season of Andor, each moment – each line of dialogue, each carefully constructed speech, each key character beat – is leading our central characters to their ultimate […]
