Too bad Disney dumped the free trial ... I would check it out.

Most of the new Verizon plans give you Disney, Hulu, and ESPN+ free if you have Verizon.

I think that they're only releasing one episode a week, no? Disney doesn't have enough new content on their site to let you binge an entire season in one sitting. They gotta stretch it out.

I rewatched Season 1 this week.
Was going to wake up a little early this morning to watch S2 premier but didn't make it.
I will watch tonight though for sure.

Unfortunately the amount my cell bill would increase switching to Verizon from Google Fi might well cover the cost of all 3 services and then some!

You didn't read post #151? I'm glad they (Disney+) did this, I can watch other streamed shows from Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu.
Season 2 started today Oct 30th, ends Dec.18th . 8 episodes. Once every week Fridays.

/spoiler
ends with baby yoda no longer with the Mandalorian.
season3 is back to the show concentrating on the Mandalorian.
the star is getting tired of being called Baby Yoda's sidekick.

also, Baby Yoda spin off next year tentatively called Adventures of Baby Yoda.
[/spoiler]

I gotta admit, that shot of baby Yoda's ears blowing in the wind while he was riding with Mando on that speeder bike was kinda cute. Disney is going to sell a lot of baby Yoda plushies this Christmas.

Watching it tomorrow for Halloween. Side note, picked up a box of baby yoda cereal at Walmart and it. is. FANTATSIC! Like Kix but slightly sweeter, and has baby yoda marshmallows in the same vein as Lucky Charms. I'm just sitting here munching on it dry & it has just the right amount of sweetness to keep eating it without getting sick of the sugary flavor. This will be my go-to movie party snack tomorrow haha

I watched it, but it's more the same how last season went. Fly to this planet, and unexpectedly get involved helping someone with a local problem because you need something from them. It' really like playing a light-hearted quest video game (like Ratchet and Clank).

I mean I'll watch it because it's Star Wars and the special effects are usually pretty good, along with the "member berries" when they have classical Star Wars characters show up (like the Scout Troopers and Jawas in season 1). It's a decent show, but I personally don't think it's as great as some people claim it is.

for some reason, standalone episode TV shows are the only type i've been able to watch for the past 10 years

it's similar for games too - i used to love ones with huge stories when i was young, but now i can't stick with them and prefer some mindless hack and slash

i think my job makes me sick of thinking. i have a headache by the end of almost every work day.

maybe it'll get better after i retire... regardless of whether it does or not, i can't wait to see.

For the simple reason only one episode has been released. One episode a week...

But since we are here, story line is weak, 50% - 75% of time is filled with drawn out scenes that contribute nothing to the story line, such as speeding across a desert on a land speeder. Yea, visuals are good, especially in 4K, but you want to start looking for things to do on your phone until something actually happens. 45 minutes that could be recapped in two sentences.

Guess I'm spoiled after watching stuff like Break Bad, El Camino, Better Call Saul, where you can't even duck into the kitchen without missing something critical.
