The Mandalorian:
That was bizarre. The cameos kind of took me out of what would have otherwise been an odd but serviceable episode. It doesn't help that Lizzo can't act and Jack Black was apparently trying to make up for it by going over the top.
As for The Darksaber I (and a lot of other people online) have been thinking that that should be the case ever since it happened and it was odd they took so long to address it.
I hate to say it, but Mandalorian duels are a lot more fun in animation.
I actually liked the fight scene at the end: it was a lot more physical and believable than I expected.

The Mandalorian:
Grogu piloting the body of a dead ally is kind of disturbing but him spamming the "Yes" button while they were walking down the street was hilarious.
While Paz Vizla's final stand was really cool I will never understand media that pulls the "there's too many" sacrifice card and then has that person almost win. If they almost win solo then they should have been able to win easily with their allies. They probably should have had the Praetorian Guards show up while there were still super commandos up and fighting.
I loved every single bit of this week's Ted Lasso. (Well, except the unsurprising reveal that Jamie's dad is even more horrific than he previously demonstrated himself to be.) Every other part, though. SO GOOD.
SO GOOD
I’m still not sure about Rebecca’s psychic predictions storyline although I like her story other than that, I think.
Basically every time I would think “well, this storyline is giving me everything, I don’t need anything else” we’d switch focus to someone else giving me a different everything. Good job, show.
The whole thing with Roy and Jamie was amazing.
Right? So good
The whole thing with Roy and Jamie was amazing.
I laughed SO HARD. Something that this show does so well is hit the beats perfectly.
Lockwood & Co I have finished Book 1, watched a few minutes of the first episode and then looked at some of the summaries of the rest of the season and realized I want to read the next book before getting into the show so now I'm doing that. But I like what I have gotten to so far in both media!
Ted Lasso I'm not sure how I feel about this week's episode. Other than I heart Keeley and Keeley and Rebecca's relationship. Mostly I keep thinking it's really weird that Jack wants Keeley to follow her lawyer's advice about what is surely a PR problem when PR is Keeley's business and core competency. Although maybe that is the point?
