  • The Mandalorian Rewatch, Chapter Two: The Child
    Aug 21 2025

    Join Children of the Watch as we continue our Mandalorian Rewatch! This week, we're looking at Chapter Two: The Child of The Mandalorian. In preparation for the next Star Wars film, The Mandalorian & Grogu, we're going back through The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels, The Book of Boba Fett, and The Mandalorian itself to break down all of the easter eggs, connections, and hints about what could be coming in the movie!

    How long had Grogu been held captive before being rescued by Din? Why did the show invent the brand new IG-11 instead of using the Star Wars staple IG-88? And why oh why does the Mudhorn cave look like THAT?

    Next week, we continue on to The Mandalorian Chapter 2!

  • The Mandalorian Rewatch, Chapter One: The Mandalorian
    Aug 14 2025

    Join Children of the Watch as we begin the main portion of our Mandalorian Rewatch! We're finally diving in to the premiere episode of The Mandalorian! In preparation for the next Star Wars film, The Mandalorian & Grogu, we're going back through The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels, The Book of Boba Fett, and The Mandalorian itself to break down all of the easter eggs, connections, and hints about what could be coming in the movie!

    This week, it's Season 1, Chapter 1: The Mandalorian. What a homecoming for our podcast to revisit this debut episode of Star Wars Television! We get caught up with a lot of our favorite characters like Din Djarin, The Armorer, Greef Karga, The Client, and Baby Yoda himself, Grogu. We discuss potential internal power struggles between Moff Gideon and Werner Herzog's Client character, just how much we miss the amazing Kuill, and how we think the upcoming Mandalorian & Grogu film will be a return to the format we see exhibited in this pilot.

    Next week, we continue on to The Mandalorian Chapter 2!

    Join Children of the Watch as we wrap up the Star Wars: Rebels portion of our Mandalorian Rewatch! In preparation for the next Star Wars film, The Mandalorian & Grogu, we're going back through The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels, and The Mandalorian itself to break down all of the easter eggs, connections, and hints about what could be coming in the movie!
