I’m caught up in this story of Mando and now I gotta take myself out of the episode to remember what the f-k Jango Fett did in a prequel trilogy that I have spent years DELIBERATELY purging from my memory. This is a test of exactly how much mythology you, the customer, are able to recall while watching what should be an enjoyable mindless piece of entertainment.
This is where fan service gets in the way. There is branding to consider, after all. MORE DREW: 'Outer Banks' is the Show Of The Year whether you snotty bastards want it to be or notīut in the industry now, good writing and direction are never enough. The writing and the direction were enough. But I didn’t NEED it to be Boba Fett for that sequence, and for the episode as a whole, to work. Ironically, this was the best episode of the show I’ve ever seen, because they let "El Mariachi" legend Robert Rodriguez direct it, which meant it was a nonstop barrage of incredible fight sequences, including one at the very end that features Boba Fett rocking some secondhand Mandalorian armor while ruining everyone else’s s-t. I can’t get it up for Boba Fett’s miraculous return, even if actor Temuera Morrison does a perfectly cromulent job of playing him.

Serial killer appears to be operating in California as Stockton police link 5 murders.
There’s also the small and fatal detail of Boba Fett dying in the beginning of "Return of the Jedi," but I’m sure Disney is saving the explanation for how he survived as a hook for future "Mandalorian" episodes. The line of dialogue that proves Boba Fett is Boba Fett is when he tells the Mandalorian, “The armor was given to my father, Jango.”

I’m partially at fault here, because I didn’t really understand that I was looking AT Boba Fett on my TV screen, despite the fact that they show his signature spaceship landing just prior to his appearance. So when Boba Fett made his surprise entrance in "Chapter 14" last week, I should have been punching the goddamn ceiling in ecstasy. And I loved Boba Fett, because he had a cool helmet and because Little Me believed that bounty hunter was the coolest profession imaginable, before Dog the Bounty Hunter came along and made it clear that this is very much NOT the case. I grew up loving "Star Wars," which means I’m insufferable about it. In theory, I was the perfect target audience for "The Mandalorian" Friday night reveal that Boba Fett is still alive.
