When should I stop watching the Mandalorian?

I'm considering finally getting around to watch the Mandalorian. What season does it start to fall off?

I enjoyed the first two seasons and found that season three was where it slopes downward in overall quality. (Not to say that there weren't a couple of great episodes.

I found myself not liking episodes six and seven of season three. Episode six felt as if it were a filler episode with celebrity appearances. I believe that the execs saw how well the audience responded to having Bill Burr (Mayfeld) in the show as a one off and figured that they could 'boost' the popularity of the show with others. As for episode seven, I found myself removed from the action and story with its unrealistic. What I mean is that the Mandalorians are supposed to be some of the best fighters in the galaxy, and it didn't come across as such while watching the long battle.

It gets dumber after season 2, but it's still kinda fun. For live action SW shows, it's basically Andor >>> Mando S1-2 > Skeleton Crew >> everything else shuffled around according to personal taste.

I don’t find it worth it at all. Rewatch andor instead

I was the opposite. hated andor but loved mando.

I was always a huge mandalorian fan since kotor anyway, so not unbiased.

I can respect liking mandalorians since kotor but I’m not sure how to reply nicely to hating andor and loving mando within the new Disney Star Wars. I only found Andor and Rogue had interesting stories that moved the universe forward.

End with the season 2 finale. Then pretend nothing else happens after.

Technically the Bad Ending but understandable

I've seen 1 till 3 liked them all

Id recommend stopping after you finish the series as there aren't any episodes after that

@jewbacca117
Can't argue with that. But usually when I'm interested in a series I watch the episodes of each season in a random order, and I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to accidentally start with the shit parts.

If you don't actually care about continuity then this may not matter to you, but be aware that season 2 ends with a solid ending for the series. Then The Book of Boba Fett came out and was doing so poorly they shoved the season 3 premiere of Mandalorian as one of the episodes of Boba Fett. So if you went from the s2 finale of Mandalorian to the first episode of s3 of Mandalorian you'll be confused about how many things changed.

Also, season 3 of Mandalorian is when things get silly, like the Jack Black episode and the Pirate King episode.

Long story. When I was a kid, I found a cool semi-epistolary 8-book series at my school library about a modern-day kid named Pendragon hopping through a portal to save alternate timelines. It was so cool to me that the series jumped around in time so we had to figure out when we were in Pendragon's timeline. Turns out my school shelved them in alphabetical order, and they also lacked the first and last books. I had a blast & I've been trying to recreate that experience ever since.
