The Mandalorian

*pic from wallpaperaccess.com

It seems that the Star Wars universe has expanded itself onto the streaming world with The Mandalorian, a TV series starring Pedro Pascal of GOT fame.  Set in between the timelines of the sixth and the seventh Star Wars chapters, the series promises a lot of side tales of how the remaining tension between the fledgling New Republic and the remnants of the Sith Empire is resolved.  While lacking the battle grandeur of galaxy class star ships, the intimate fight scenes are still exciting and visually fun to watch.  The story line flows much like the Japanese samurai shows in the early 70s, in which a travelling swordsman swears to protect a lovable boy-prince.  I wonder how the story will develop in the coming season...
