The Mandalorian
Exciting shootouts aboard Imperial transport ships. Deadly Lightsaber Removals. Narrow escapes raging alien spiders. The second season of The Mandalorian turned out to be even better than the first, as it more fully embraced its Western spatial qualities, attracted guest stars (some of whom played the very first live versions of fan-favorite animated characters), and has become even more of a beautiful bridge between the three trilogies of the saga, the animated shows and even things that were previously not canon.
