LOL, new Star Wars material..
Jon Favreau and I are a year apart in age.....he reminds me of several folks in my group of friends who, in my opinion, spent too much time reading comic books and not enough time outside, getting skinned up and bruised.
The Book of Bobba lacks depth.
He should been reading more LeCarre and less Marvel growing up.

Favreau did The Mandalorian…
Mandalorian and BF belong in the Sci Fi kiddie pool
The Expanse and Blade Runner(s) are the measure of all things SciFi for me....but I'm old and don't like comic books.

Ok, where to start.
The first few episodes of TBOBF left a lot to be desired. Focusing on story only, it's gotten significantly better over the last 3 episodes.
Multiple story arcs. Multiple similar yet different things going on. Stories being told from different angles. It's how the original Star Wars movies were made to be great stories.
Going over to the whole Mandalorian/Boba Fett thing, they are really merging the two, which I don't see as a problem, yet, its kind iof weird that the 'Boba Fett' titled show has had maybe 45 seconds of Boba Fett in 2 hours of show.
How they'll continue it isn't that big of a mystery or reach. This current set up to a big fight is how Fett establishes himself on Tatt. It could have just had a better lead up than the first 3 episodes. The thing that doesn't make sense with Baby Yoda to alot, and how they'd continue the Mandalorian if he is a Jedi is simple; he wont be. Or if he is, it'll be brief.
Why?
Because by the time Kylo Ren and all the bullshit new wave Star Wars bullshit happens, there are no Jedi outside of (I think) Skywalker. Mary Sue hasn't become a thing yet (and never should). All of the Jedi Temples are gone and all Jedi are dead or in hiding. Seeing as how that is like 20-30 years from this time line, that doesn't really work as far as Baby Yoda being a Jedi as that would be a really big plot hole and/or hard as fuck to write.
Instead, I'm guessing he starts doing Jedi shit a bit more and then, just as Skywalker says 'his heart isn't in it' he decides being together with Mando is better.

You have to understand that there was a cut scene from Clone wars (series) where Cad Bane and Boba had a quick draw and shot each other in the head. Its where the dent in Boba's helmet came from. Note, that it was undented when Jengo had it. Cad was thought dead until Bad Batch came out. Its not really about Mando, but they wanted you to remember he has his own stuff going on too. All this is the Star Wars saga unfolding. Forget the other titles. Its getting interesting.
Not watched clone wars, but didn't Boba get his helmet sent from falling off something (clone tower ?) In one of the newer movies ?
I seemed to remember a whole bunch of nerds rave about how he got it, and they (directors) slipped that in ??

Latest episode seems like it's mostly a rerun from Mandalorian.
LAME!
This whole first season was a let down for me...disappointment; it could have been great, being the hype and build-up around Fett is huge, giving a wide palette of ideas they could have drawn from. As for @PDXGS mention of Expanse...yeah, you know what's up...that series was great. Too bad they ended that one, I was really starting to want more Drummer.
I thought Fet, and Mando were both good shows. Interesting to see how his character changed, and developed as he got older. I'm guessing that surviving being eaten by the "all powerful sarlacc" then being adopted by a tribe of sand people can change your aspect on life.
Like a John Wayne western where he got tired of the fast life, and getting shot at all the time (plus he met a girl)
"How do you know I'm not tired of selling my gun arm all over the place?"
As far as bad reviews goes, I'd never want to be the guy making a Star Wars movie. Most fans are so ate up they think they know more than the people making the movies. You're never gonna win. Only thing I really didn't like (about either show) was how few episodes per season there are.

Drummer and Draper
Can confirm
Well, damn, now I gotta go watch the very end.
