Mandalorian Ep 5 was amusing if boring. On Tatooine, in Mos Eisley, in THE cantina, in Han Solo's chair, etc. Predictable plot and curious they made up Amy Sedaris to look like Ellen Ripley.
Yeah the last two episodes were a little meh. This one was slightly better, but the plots are too simplistic. I get that the neo-Western thing is the concept, but I hope they move away from such blatant pastiche in future seasons.
Amy Sedaris was fun, though, and is probably the reason I liked this episode more than 4. My wife thought that she just picked the most ridiculous wig she could find. Didn't make the Ripley connection at all. I kinda got the early 90s softball coach vibe from the wig.
Bobby Cannavale's son was terrible (unless they were purposely going for a Lucasian "bad acting" thing).
