1. Santo has a giant gun, but he is attacked with melee weapons. Then, when they get close enough to stab him, they just dogpile on him?
2. The girl Mod suggests that she will distract the Scorpion in the sniping scene. The scorpion was already shooting away from them. All she did was draw attention to their spot. She should've been on a different roof top.
3. How about that spin move shot by the Mod as he was helping Santo

Yeah, all of these were pretty cringe moments for me. Especially that spin move.. good lord that was some corny shite.

Also the Gamorreans looking like two fat dudes in a slap fight and getting pushed off the cliff.

Or my personal favorite.. staying at the burned out bar is one thing. But nobody thought that maybe, just maybe, somebody should go pick up the gunships, starfighter, and giant death lizard while they waited?

Or the mechs that can apparently only shoot at the ground when chasing their targets.. except for when they are shooting at the air above their targets. But if the target is behind a wall, I guess their aim is pretty good. I mean I know it’s Star Wars and all.. but come on.

I didn’t hate it. I don’t regret watching the series overall. But there were a ton of moments during that battle sequence that could have just as easily been satire. It just wasn’t very good. I never got into the EU stuff so maybe the fan service and Easter eggs make up for it, to some folks. For me.. boy, that was a far cry from The Mandalorian.

Didn't hate it. Didn't like it. Just Meh.

Don't think Bane is dead.

Biker gang absolutely sucks balls and needs to die a horrible death.

Rancor wrecking shite was awesome.

Wanted more of a cliffhanger.

I doubt Bane is dead. Like someone else said, they showed the sensor beeping on his chest. Should we assume that he has all of this tech and nothing protecting him a bit under

Same as I do not think it was bad except for the happy ending but after the last 2 episodes a little disappointed.

I think he is and it brings full circle for those two but I think we see him on other series that predate this series.

Yeah was not a good addition for the series at all

Especially the nod to King Kong scene

I think the reason for no cliffhanger only 1 Fett series.

The modders need to be taken out in the way that biker gang was taken out. They are the most out of place characters. I was half expecting Doc and Marty to show up to save them.

Your loss. Clone Wars and Rebels are good shows and are more meaningful now that we’ve seen so many Clone Wars characters appearing in the live action series.

Biker gang was awful…again

Disappointed that we get a nice build up to a war vs the Pykes last episode and its all over in the following episode. Should’ve had a cliff hanger and Cad Bane surviving.

Got excited for a second when the X-wing was coming in. Thought Luke or Ahsoka was going to be accompanying Grogu

There is some speculation that Olyphant might take Carano's place as the lead in Rangers of the New Republic if they decide to kickstart that back up. I have a hard time believing they are currently considering it with all of the other SW series they have going on right now, but I'd be all for it if Olyphant got the lead in it. I mean, space Raylan patrolling the galaxy...yes please.

Some of y’all are hating just to hate. It wasn’t the worst episode ever.

True. The Rancor scenes, the Bane scenes, the Grogu scenes were Mandalorian-worthy action quality.

Problem is the CW television network level of action scenes involving the cringey Mods, the dull Freetownsmen, and the unintimidating Pykes were in the same episode. When I was watching the first 30 mins, I was, like, "I betcha Rodriguez directed this episode!" And..yep.

So, I think this well-deserved negativity is overriding the great parts, particularly since two completely great episodes preceded the finale that was expected to top them all & underwhelmed.

The show seemed disjointed but not in the capacity of the sequel trilogy. Biker gang needs to never show up in SW again, and it seemed like there was so much more with the Pykes that could spring into another conflict with a 2nd season but the main leaders just die in like 30 seconds of screen time.

HOW DID THOSE DROIDS NOT HIT ONE SINGLE PERSON RUNNING???? (also that sequence reminded me of Episode I with obi wan and qui-gon running from the droidekas after attempting to reach the viceroy)

One more thing. I am surprised they didn't have a scene where Grogu's chainmail was needed.


I definitely thought they were going to do a Frodo/Cave troll type thing where Grogu gets shot. Everyone panics. And then it’s revealed he’s wearing his armor.

Hopefully that Weequay ties into bringing Hondo into the show somehow.

I liked the episode - kids and the husband say it was meh

One of my sons was waiting for Hondo to make an appearance

I don’t think Bane is dead, not sure of the significance of the Marshall being in the chamber

Will there be a season 2?

Pretty meh to me.
Really wish they would have used Cad Bane more and left the season on a cliffhanger…
Also the action scenes need to get better drastically and they need to get rid of the biker gang. Not enough focus on Boba himself.

I didn't mind the series. However, it wasn't Boba fett centric.

I , of course, enjoyed the other cameos but I feel they could have left Mando out and hashed out the bane training. Maybe a backstory of Fennec.
Maybe show why Boba changed and have a tusken callback.
Maybe bring back Trejo for rancor training.

Why didn’t mando ever use his rocket on his back pack? Boba used his and some how another reappeared in the scene with bane.
