Fans of all things Star Wars were loving every episode of the Disney+ original series “The Mandalorian” and like many of you, I myself subscribed exclusively to enjoy that show. If you didn’t see the Official Trailer and want to do so before diving in to the new season just click HERE to be on point. The series begins running an episode a week officially today and it really looks like a good time.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: Having greatly enjoyed the first season, I am really looking forward to diving into this next one. The whole storyline was interesting and the effects were top drawer and showed that Disney was really going to pull out all the stops with this new service. As expected the series launched a whole new series of toy releases and the things that come along with them but that is stuff for my Toys and Collectibles posts in the Pop Culture section as opposed to being right here. Since a busy weekend is ahead of me, I will likely be watching this sometime next week so hopefully I can avoid any spoilers to the overall plot. I’ll close up now and ask if you are as excited as the rest of us. Will you be subscribing to the service or begging a friend to create an access for you since you can have a couple of them on your account. Chime in down below in the comments section and I will see you again soon.
