Anyone watching this on Paramount? Watched first few episodes and so far this might be best show I've seen in a long time. I never really got into Yellowstone this is a lot better.

I'm liking it so far. I was a little skeptical when I heard Tim McGraw was in it but he's believable in his role. Sam Elliot is good as always in a western.

Well after that crap fest against the Cards, I need to find something to watch to distract myself. Anyone watch Don't Look Up on Netflix? Is it worth watching?

I’ve started it, and have found it to be a bit ‘too much’ so far in what they’re trying to say and trying to get me to believe. I appreciate the message, but the execution hasn’t been great 30 minutes in.

I’ve heard all the scuttlebutt about it being a dud. I watched it the other day and thought it was pretty good. Definitely speaks to what’s going on in the country right now. That said, half the country will probably get offended by it.

Episode one was not great but a solid foundation in what we will see from this point.

Fett's continuing evolution into an anti-hero that began in The Mandalorian was balanced very well. On one hand, he became a savior for the Tusken youngster and gained the respect from the tribe. On the OTHER hand, Fett did not blink blowing up one of the street attackers into smithereens trying to escape scaling a wall.

I think it is imperative of Lucasfilm/Disney to build upon the character differences between Fett and The Mandalorian. Mandy is a hero with a shadowy past. Boba's bounty hunter career is a complex mix of unsavory choices, revenge, and tainted reputation, which is undergoing a transformation into a "respected" warlord who will still kill to achieve his lofty goals.

His Sarlaac experience was unquestionably a life-changing moment for him. I think now Fett wants redemption by re-creating himself within the "virtuous" memory he has always held for his father, Jango. It should be really interesting how many layers this legendary bounty hunter will gain during the series' run. The ceiling is pretty high. Just depends how much imagination will be utilized building him up.

Interesting to see the inside of the Sarlacc depicted on screen. Boba Fett gave it a terminal case of heart burn...

Did Fett's exposure to the Sarlacc's digestive enzymes cause his health issues and reliance on the bacta tank?

Similar to Darth Vader's reliance on using a bacta tank because his severe lava burns he sustained on Mustafar...

I especially enjoyed the introduction of the offspring of Prince Goro and Gorn Captain a.k.a. the Sand Creature...

It definitely reminded me of Jabba the Hutt's death at the hands of Prince Leia in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi...

If anyone is curious, here's a diagram of a Sarlacc courtesy of the Star Wars: The Complete Visual Dictionary...

If I had to guess they already filmed season two or much of it when they filmed season one, so this was inevitable.

While I was not impressed with the show, I am always happy when networks commit to at least two seasons of a show for many reasons but mostly because I hate shows that end without some type of closure for all of the storylines introduced.

It bothers me even when shows I do not like or watch get prematurely canceled because I know that just means it could happen to shows I like as well.

That is why I rarely watch any new shows until two seasons have come out or at the very least a second season has been announced.

Most of the time I just wait though because it got really bad there for a while with networks canceling shows with cliffhangers or unfinished stories that were popular but simply had the wrong demographic or they had too many shows with overlapping demographics or they thought they could make more money from newer original and/or self-produced shows.
