The Mandalorian Season 2

8 episodes ★ 9/10 our take

Season 2 Review

⚠ Spoiler alert Season notes below reveal how the story develops.

The Mandalorian and the Child continue their journey, facing enemies and rallying allies as they make their way through a dangerous galaxy in the tumultuous era after the collapse of the Galactic Empire.

Season Review

Season 2 is the quest: return the child to his kind. Every episode is a mini movie, the Krayt dragon, the Frog Lady ferry, Cobb Vanth and the Tusken negotiation, Boba Fett’s return, building to the finale: the Imperial cruiser boarding, the Darksaber, and the cameo that made the internet scream. The best flesh and blood Star Wars since Empire.
