Yeah thats the thing isnt it, F&F got so much right with Mando and BOBF gets it all wrong.b0r1s wrote:Tbh I get that viewpoint. Problem is Favreau and Co setup a top quality show with Mando that seemed to understand not just Star Wars but good story telling. The fact the same people have completely fucked Boba is worse than having a fuckwit come in and spoil the show. No real excuse for it.

Season two seemed only to exist to introduce lots of new characters that Disney want to spin into their own projects, and was disappointing for me.
Same with Marvel. We don't have a compelling story to tell, we just have a lot of nods and winks and memes and hints about what exciting things are coming in the future.
It's vacuous at best, and I'll wager unsustainable to the mainstream audience in the long term.

I think the standard for “good” tv is 10 now. The last two series I watched - True Detective and Yellowjackets were 10. Euphoria 1 is technically a 10 but really it’s an 8+2

We're taking control of this planet!
Dude, there are eight of you. It's like me and my boys fire-bombing the local boozer and declaring ourselves rulers of Earth.
