The Mandalorian – “The Jedi” (A-)
Other than some cut-scene quality dialogue, this was a thrilling episode that will still mean ore to people steeped in Star Wars lore. That cold open was phenomenal.
BINGEING
Succession – Season 2 (A average)
An incredible season and took the leap from an already excellent first season. Still, it would only have been No. 3 at best among last year’s shows. That’s how good a year it was for television.
