The Mandalorian is very, very good to the OT Star Wars fan. It does a fantastic job of creating the vague, exciting sci-fi adventures us old folks imagined after the original Star Wars (before Empire Strikes Back, even). You could get away with it completely, not watching anything but the first Star Wars movie, and be fine. It crafts the Empire remnants (on the down-low after the Death Star is destroyed), Tatooine and Sandpeople, Jawas etc into the fabric of the tale.


WAS really good, until the SJW's got one of the best, most enjoyable female leads in recent memory fired from the fricking show.

While I understand your frustration, let's clarify a few things here:
1) First off, she was fired after the last episode of the season. There has yet to be any noticeable impact, she was in the last show.
2) It's one of the more peripheral characters, not a lead. Cara Dune is only essential if Mando chooses to join the New Republic, which I'm not really that eager to see. I like him out in the wastelands.
And it's not like Cara is at Asoka level in-universe, or even Bo Katan.

Speaking of which, I couldn't see Cara joining the group going to Mandalore, anyway. She's New Republic as mentioned, which I don't think is welcomed any more than the Old Republic was. They're going to be MMGA (Make Mandalore Great Again).

So she was out for awhile anyway, in all likelihood. And it's my understanding there's been overtures to her returning, much the same way James Gunn got fired and has now returned to Disney.

And even if she's gone, you could easily enough swap in Mayfield instead, who brings a lot of the same parts to the table (will make a good backup to Mando). And I think Mayfield is an immensely more interesting option in that spot.
