The third episode of season two of The Mandalorian premiered on Disney+ final Friday (November 13).
Reviewing the episode, NME wrote: “Informal followers may need to start out doing their analysis to search out out who everyone seems to be, but it surely’s clear that issues are going to get even knottier because the sequence goes on.
“Three episodes into the brand new sequence and The Mandalorian continues to be skating across the fringe of the larger story arc – however Mando is selecting up sufficient cameos, side-quests and back-story nods to construct in the direction of one thing fairly epic within the coming weeks.”
