Well, the much anticipated Book of Boba Fett was a delight, for me. I can see how many Star Wars fans might take issue to (or be downright annoyed by) some of the story and choices that Favreau made in this show, but I liked almost everything. Boba Fett is so enigmatic and his entrance in
The Mandalorian season 2 was just so epic and his now sustained relationship with Fennec and Din is really fun to watch. I also thoroughly enjoyed the episodes that focused on Boba's complex relationship with the Tusken tribe that later became his family. So many questions answered, so many new ones asked...I love this about Favreau!
Some viewers did not like certain episodes or felt that others weren't really about Boba, but I understand this decision--the bigger picture--and think there is a lot more to build on and explore in future seasons...of multiple shows. Favorite episodes would have to be: "The Tribes of Tatooine" and "The Return of the Mandalorian."
