I saw an announcement that Hannah Waddington will be hosting Eurovision (which is kind of Ted Lasso related, right?)

That sounds like an excellent match of host and event.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
The Mandalorian 3.1: That was kind of underwhelming after the long wait.
Having Bo-Katan sulking alone in a giant castle because she doesn't have the Darksaber was a really weird plot choice.

I was very impressed by Gideon Emery's performance. He delivered with excellent sincerity and to great effect what would otherwise have been merely exposition of a silly horror tale..
The rest? Meh.
I still wish there was room for some humor in the story. Oh, well.

Wait, so Emery was in this, but not as Deucalion?

The Mandalorian 3.2:
So are the Children of the Watch just that terrible of fighters or is Bo-Katan just that big of a badass ? I'm thinking it might be a mix of both since last season there seemed to be very clear difference in ability between Din and the other non-Watch Mandalorians.
I swear, members of the Watch, including Din, would all be dead a million times over if it weren't for their Beskar.

I was very cranky about how bad Din's tribe was at fighting the monster last week.
I think this week Bo-Katan was great because she has 20 years more experience fighting than Din (she's in her 50s), and she has used the Darksaber before. You could tell he was still really crappy at wielding it.
Loved the monster in this episode. It took me a while to realize there was a living being inside the various layers of droid.
And the mythosaur!
I think Bo-Katan has been bored; I think she's happy to have a job now, even if it's just keeping this weird naive cult guy and his cute kid out of harm's way.

Bo-Katan has plenty of reason to be better with the Darksaber. She's both more aligned with its purpose and also wielded it herself from before the start of the OT until whenever the Purge happened. Also, I loved her little Mandalorian-equivalent of a Force pull to get the saber. We've seen Jedi in that same situation a bunch of times to the point we kind of expect the weapon to go flying into the person's hand as soon as we get that camera shot.
I'm hoping the writers are intentionally trying to show the Children of the Watch are just kind of crappy at the physical parts of being a Mandalorians rather than just making them consistently look like they suck as fighters compared to Bo-Katan and company on accident.
If it is intentional, I wonder if the overall goal of the show is to follow the re-merging of the spiritual side of Mandalorian culture (the Children) and the physical side (Bo-Katan and co.)
