There was a high bar to reach, andThe Mandalorianseason 3 struggled to do so.

Unfortunately, however,this expansiveness did little to serve those who first established the storyin season 1.

This worked for some viewers, but it most certainly didn’t for others.

While it made for a jaw-droppingStar Warsspectacle, this expansive reach ultimately hurt the very heart ofThe Mandalorianitself.

This will allowThe Mandalorian & Groguto feel like aStar Warsmovie without losing sight of its titular characters.

There was no desire to reclaim Mandalore until the end of episode 5.

The Mandalorian premiered in 2019 and has since run for three seasons.

Here’s when each season was released, and when were they all filmed.

This already has the potential to challenge Din in a brand-new way.

Din Djarin was once a lone bounty who has since tasked himself with raising his adopted son and Mandalorian apprentice, Grogu. Born on Aq Vetina and raised on Concordia by the Mandalorian faction the Children of the Watch, Din is an orphan and Mandalorian foundling who has risked both his life and his Mandalorian Creed to protect Grogu. Djarin has become an important part of the galaxy’s fight against the Imperial Remnant that lingers in the wake of the Empire’s fall, as he is now working under-the-table for the fledgling New Republic’s rangers.

Either way, there are ways to bring this questioning back.
