"The Western and Samurai Influences of 'The Mandalorian'"

Well, among all the shows on all the streaming services, by whatever measure they use, The Mandalorian is the most watched of 'em all. Though, with its success, I wonder what was suppose to be 10 episodes and then done and gone, will have a 2nd season.

Are there more coming for this season? After this 8th episode, so far the best one, everybody is saying that this was the season finale.

I thought the 1st season was suppose to be 10 episodes, but, it may have been only 8 episodes. Still, the worst kept secret in Hollywood is that The Mandalorian will have a 2nd season. Though, one will have to wait till the fall of 2020 for the 1st episode. And he only learned today, that there may be a theatrical film version of The Mandalorian. While it is still early yet, what most interests him is who will appear in season 2, as the 1st season has already attracted people who normally do not do TV. And we will see what we will see.

And here's the season 2 trailer...

Complete with Baby Yoda seeing that Daddy is about to kick a bunch of ass and taking cover.  Well trailed, Baby Yoda is.

(IHHO) the strength of this lies in their ability to get actors who normally do not do TV to do this. Both Carl Weathers and Giancarlo Esposito are returning from the 1st season and in season 2 Timothy Olyphant, Michael Biehn and Rosario Dawson.

Season 2 will consist of 8 episodes that run from October 30, 2020 to December 18, 2020.

If you rather read it, then see it, beginning in December, 2020, we'll be getting comic books, junior novels, fiction and non-fiction books based on the series.

And there may be even a 3rd season.

So far so good with the new season.  I'm enjoying Season 2.  I think the third episode is my favorite so far.

And so it continues.

Mercedes Varnado, perhaps best known as Smackdown Women's Champion Sasha Banks, appeared as Koska Reeves in a past episode of the show. She has also hinted she'll appear in at least one more future episode.

Baby Yoda is now a cocktail, which looks just like Baby Yoda. At the moment it seems to be only available at The Vault in Ireland, but, the image of it has gone viral on social media, so it may become available elsewhere.

Watched Chapter 16 this morning before work. 

And I've got some onion juice in my eyes now.

And as awesome as the corridor scene was in Chapter 16, if they had used the music from Rogue One's corridor scene it would have been epic;

I cannot believe the self control I'm exerting over myself.  I am watching one episode a month.  I'm still on Season 1.. and loving it. I don't want to get through all the episodes and have to wait a full year for next season. 

I'm digging every single episode.
