The Mandalorian Half-Hour - Chapter 22: Guns for Hire
Added 2023-04-06 21:00:24 +0000 UTCCAUTION: SPOILERS ABOUND (OBVIOUSLY)
On this week's Mandalorian Half-Hour, the guys wonder if this was one cameo too many?
In "Chapter 22: Guns for Hire," which was written by Jon Favreau and directed by Bryce Dallas Howard, Din and Bo-Katan head to an Epcot Center-looking community on an independent planet where droids do all the work while the citizens and rulers of Plazir-15 sit around eating, drinking, and playing space bocce ball! How great was it seeing some Ugnaughts again? Would you drink from Lizzo & Jack Black's weird secretion hose device? And should they just make things easier on everybody and change the name of this show to The Mandalorian(s)?
The Mandalorian Half-Hour is a WHM show where the guys recap every episode of the Disney+ series, The Mandalorian! Thank you for continuing to be a loyal Patreon subscriber. We couldn't do it without you!

2025-04-28 20:58:30 +0000 UTCI'm never sure if that's a hot take or not, but I've yet to meet a BBQ potato chip that does it for me... and lord knows it's not for lack of trying! - Andrew

2023-04-11 20:37:11 +0000 UTCSteve and I are the only ones watching it, but we've had some light discussions on how we might be able to do something once the season is over. No promises! - Andrew

2023-04-11 20:36:55 +0000 UTCThat's not a bad idea, actually. I guess since at the time of Mando's inception, the notion of "Mandalorians" wasn't well known enough to franchise the name right out the gate? - Andrew

2023-04-11 20:35:49 +0000 UTCSteve and I are the only ones watching Picard season 3, and we've been talking about some way we could sum up the season at some point. No promises, but Patrons will surely hear about it, should be figure out the time and what not. I'm loving Picard season 3! - Andrew

2023-04-11 20:34:43 +0000 UTCI got the feeling Mando never really wanted it in the first place, and considering they're trying to get this working relationship up and running, I don't know that an all-out duel makes sense? That's just me. But the fight between Bo and Axe Woves could've been just a tad longer, that was a rad watch. - Andrew

2023-04-11 20:33:25 +0000 UTCAndrew is correct. Barbecue potato chips are dis-GUSTING.

2023-04-10 16:23:27 +0000 UTCAndrew really bringing the hilarious observations on this one

2023-04-09 21:17:12 +0000 UTCPicard S3 has very dark lighting, they are either trying to be a submarine, or are using the darkness as makeup to make picard and riker look better

2023-04-07 23:10:01 +0000 UTCSo a future gleep glossary entry for Wat Tambor (foreman of the techno union) in the near future?

2023-04-07 15:18:58 +0000 UTCI've been thinking a similar thing for a while, that the show should've been "The Mandalorians" from the start, and then we could've done "The Mandalorians: Boba Fett" and "The Mandalorians: Bo Katan" and I wouldn't be so upset about the lack of direction

2023-04-07 15:09:11 +0000 UTCI need to see the ass wiping droids malfunction

2023-04-07 13:53:08 +0000 UTCWe're using cameo interchangeably with guest starring roles, but yes, they're closer to guest appearances. - Andrew

2023-04-07 13:39:23 +0000 UTCIt looks... sloppy to say the least. - Andrew
We Hate Movies
2023-04-07 13:38:57 +0000 UTCI don't think these were cameos, these were straight up guest roles. Gotta say though, as charismatic as she is I expected better acting from Lizzo.
Michael Daniels
2023-04-07 12:51:50 +0000 UTCSo gang, what do you think intercourse between a Quarren and Mon Calamari looks like? The smell alone must've been vile, to say the least.

2023-04-07 11:48:53 +0000 UTCFinally we get some of those hilarious fucking Christopher Lloyd impressions!
Jacob Ferguson
2023-04-07 07:32:31 +0000 UTCHey, just like how Mando took over the BOBF season, maybe a Picard Season 3 discussion can take over the Mando Season 3 recap show? What do you think?

2023-04-07 04:33:58 +0000 UTCStand your ground, Jupin. Glad you're having fun with the ride like me.

2023-04-07 00:49:17 +0000 UTCI love you guys, and all your different takes. Pleasantly surprised Andrew is the Mandalorian stan.

2023-04-06 23:54:45 +0000 UTCPhew I’m glad we didn’t have to watch an episode long duel for the Darksaber between Bo and Mando /sarc

2023-04-06 23:49:32 +0000 UTC“The Mandalorian Hours” (which I support)

2023-04-06 22:49:28 +0000 UTCDid I accidentally watch an episode of Doctor Who?
Kevin Lynch
2023-04-06 22:46:18 +0000 UTCAt this point it may need to be called "The Mandalorian Hour". That's NOT a complaint, of course.

2023-04-06 21:32:49 +0000 UTCWhat the hell are these comments?
Felipe Sobreiro
2023-04-06 21:15:58 +0000 UTCI wish Lizzo would just stick to making music I will never listen to. But hey, it’s OK to like a musical artist. 😂 Thank God for the gift of Christopher Lloyd though.
