I've got 3 eps left in season two. This is a whole lotta Jar-jar level dumb. I'm not sure what the hype was about. It's really pretty to look at, but the writing is awful - targeted to pre-teens, I think. The interactions in every episode are transactional. "I will help you, Mandolorian, but first you must do X" (the rest of the episode is this side-quest) it's like I'm watching someone play a Star Wars video game. And the NPC (non-player character) dialog is straight out of gaming:
"You must go to Foo in the Bar system and seek out Bas. His deep knowledge of Babar may help you find what you seek".
Really concise, stilted, and peppered with all of the clues and back story one needs.
Other stupid dialog:
blue: you are from Alderaan. I was in the battle when we lost it. Did you lose anyone?
Gina: I lost everyone
For fuck's sake, man, the Death Star blew the planet up.
The best bit so far was the storm troopers waiting in the desert next to their speeder bikes, using a downtime moment for a little Target practice with a can (or some similar piece of Star Wars world junk)

Oh, and would it break your budget to digitally add two shadows while you are on Tatooine?
Details!
