New Streaming: The Mandalorian- 'The Passenger'

 In order to avoid SPOILERS online, I just might keep watching this when they come out.

As such, here's a SPOILER-FREE Review of Episode 2.

Things don't go well on the way back to his Ship.

If you haven't seen it, watch the Lone Wolf & Cub Series.  There's alot of fair comparisons to make, especially when you get intros like this.

Desperate to keep his ship running and low on funds, he agrees to transport a paying passenger.

Will he regret it?
They run afoul of some trouble- calling back to Episode 6- and end up on an Ice Planet.

Sure are plenty of those in Sci-Fi, eh?
Can they escape the Planet or will a new threat rise up to end their trip early?

To find out, stream the Show.

Wash away the stain and stink of that last Film with this good Show, people!
Another good, fun Episode.  Do I need to say more?  The Mandalorian is a good Show.  It was good then.  It is good now.  That's all I need to say, right?

Oh, fine.  The Show used Amy Sedaris again- great.  She's a nice, grounded addition to the Star Wars Series.  Keep it up!  More of her- yes, please!  Seeing Tatooine again is nice and it makes you happy.  One thing I really liked is that they set up how bilingual our Hero is, which totally makes sense when you consider how many Races he must meet.  In the last Episode, he spoke Sand Person- how many people in Star Wars have you seen?  So now you see him with a new Alien and he doesn't speak a word- great.  Oh and Sedaris does- double great!  I won't go into any more about the Plot since it verges into SPOILER territory.  It's great.  Watch it.  Since they hired the Director of Ant-Man, here's a Giant Ant, who joins the Giant Praying Mantis in Star Wars.

Next time, we get more adventures in Space and more adorable Aliens.  No, I didn't mean Dr. Mandible.  See you then...
