Whenever The Bad Batch focuses on the clones, and Crosshair, you know it's going to be a great episode. And "The Outpost", the latest episode from the series, is no exception. In fact, I think it's one of the very strongest episodes yet for a show that really seems to be hitting its stride. It's [...]
The Mandalorian is back today, and it's a huge episode. Literally. After the season three premiere set up plenty of story threads, the second episode picks up on the biggest thread of them all, and does so in a major way. This episode was fantastic, and there's not really much I can say up front [...]
On Friday, April 7, Lucasfilm will kick off Star Wars Celebration Europe with the Lucasfilm Studio Showcase, in which they will highlight The Mandalorian, Andor, and more, and the company presumably will also announce upcoming theatrical films then as well. It has long been assumed, and has more recently been reported, that Lucasfilm will be [...]
Shortly before The Mandalorian season 3 premiered, showrunner Jon Favreau created a stir amongst Star Wars fans by casually mentioning a timeline that caught pretty much everyone by surprise: he seemed to say that Grogu was actually training with Luke Skywalker for two years.

The latest episode of The Bad Batch, "Metamorphosis," saw the return of Clone Commandos after they first appeared in the series toward the end of season one. One of the Commandos looked familiar, but in the credits of this most recent episode it was confirmed that this clone is, in fact, Scorch. But if you're [...]
The season 3 premiere of The Mandalorian not only re-introduced us to the lovable Din Djarin and Grogu, but also re-introduced us to the state of the galaxy during this time period. A lot has changed, and this episode carries a lot of weight of storybuilding - some of which happens in major plot developments, [...]
In the premiere episode of The Mandalorian, Din Djarin tells Grogu that part of being a Mandalorian is knowing how to explore the galaxy, and we see them doing just that. Their adventures in this one episode take them to several different planets, meaning that they spend a lot of time in their modified N1 [...]
It's surreal that we have not one, but two, major Star Wars shows running simultaneously right now on Disney+ with The Mandalorian and The Bad Batch! And while The Mandalorian will dominate the headlines, the best episode of the week may just belong to The Bad Batch. But, of course, it doesn't need to be [...]
