That'll be Ewan's Obi-Wan show. Wanders Tatooine and helps people out with their personal problems.
Oh, just a reprise of David Carradine in the Kung Fu television series then.

I once blurrg'd at a drive thru

I thought y'all had invented a jokey colloquialism for some SW creepy crawly but, no, no, it appears there actually is a thing called a 'blurrg'. Must've been 'no trying' week in the Mandalorian writers' room.

n the Star Wars canon, blurrgs first appeared in "Liberty on Ryloth," an episode of the animated television series Star Wars: The Clone Wars that first aired in 2009. In the Star Wars Legends continuity, blurrgs first appeared in the 1985 television film Ewoks: The Battle for Endor.

werner was kinda perfect too! as was waititi as the IG. all the casting was excellent.
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Wednesday, 13 November 2019 19:35 (four years ago) link
series of interesting set pieces + faceless bad/good guy with eccentric bushido code + near endless stream of creative creatures and weaponry and architecture + snappy inscrutable jargon delivered with total conviction + not taking any of this shit too seriously + this goes on basically forever with only minimal character growth and a general avoidance of too much backstory = all i really wanted out of a starwars teevee show
ep 1 here delivers on everything. if favreau and co can maintain at this level, this will be a fave of the year.

I like the bit where the flute guy goes to put it in his snout and misses, and tries again, and they kept it in the cut.

Well, they finally did it... they put a goddamn space toilet in Star Wars.
― paris geller spinoff pitch (morrisp), Thursday, 14 November 2019 05:48 (four years ago) link
The blue guy seemed totally out of place; more Spaceballs than Star Wars. I liked the “I have spoken” guy, and the droid. So many elements from Tatooine on whatever planet he’s on for a while; it’s kind of confusing. The final reveal was just enough to keep me watching...

Episode 2 was shit loads of fun
My 9 year old absolutely loved it
― groovypanda, Friday, 15 November 2019 20:44 (four years ago) link
It absolutely was. Watched it twice already.

I loved the little homage to "Last Crusade" (incoming desert ledge while hanging off moving vehicle).

Oh is Ep 2 out already? Thought it was weekly from the launch date. That's good news.

It's every Friday from now on. Except for when Skywalker comes out when it'll be available on the Wednesday xp

Yeah, this is great.
Ned: good call on the Lone Wolf and Cub connection; Favreau definitely used the phrase "baby cart assassin" somewhere in his pitch.

Wasn't totally sold on episode 1, but i definitely settled into the vibe with this one

Yeah did that hunch ever play out in this one. And presumably the rest but we'll see.

What the fuck is this, anyway
― jaymc, Saturday, 16 November 2019 05:16 (four years ago) link
Ok, yeah, that was a good episode. I like how it captures the languorous pace of the Tatooine scenes in the first and third movies (even though, ahem, it’s still not Tatooine).

I liked this episode a lot. It's always tricky to keep an audience watching when there are long stretches of no dialogue -- especially TV audiences -- so the pacing and action were well-handled.
