So from what I can tell, people like "The Mandalorian" because of its stand-alone episodes and disconnection from the main "Star Wars" universe, and they're also very excited it's bringing in famous characters and building an overarching story?
I remember when I liked "Arrow" because it was refreshingly grounded, practical, and limited...
And then of course they used that to "world-build" the complete opposite of that. I guess it was popular for a while but it never really fit for me (especially since the CW's budget and production style was uh, a little more suited to grounded, limited plots).
Anyway I don't actually have Disney+ and haven't seen the show. (I don't much care for Westerns actually.) It did sound interesting that they were going for "classic" episode structure.
Yes yes I know, I was making a cheap point.

Just be careful what you wish for is all I'm saying.

Because by my count there's maybe like five shows that have actually managed "an overarching plot", and a lot more that wore out their welcome in the attempt.
(Again, remember how the CW spent actual years building up to "Crisis", and also, remember how terrible it was? Yeah.)
