Spoiler alert: mild spoilers for the premiere episode of The Mandalorian, season two.The Mandalorian is back! Disney Plus’ flagship series returns with a bang and Colin has lots to say about it. Focusing heavily on its western motif with a strong sense of style and mood, the initial episode delights, culminating in a super impressive showdown. Rest assured, it’s once again the show to watch.Keeping with the star theme, Colin also checked out the first few episodes of Star Trek: Discovery’s latest season. It’s fine, so far, but is missing that hard-to-articulate Star Trekness that long-time fans have come to expect.Multimedia exclusive: Obviously the 2020 election in the U.S. has been dominating our news, culture, brains for the past several months (years?) and with that has come some satirical and inspiring (or at least a solid effort) films and specials that address this - including an unexpectedly brilliant sequel to Borat, Tik Tok star Sarah Cooper’s first Netflix special and a bizarre West Wing reunion. Colin breaks these down and lets you know if they’re worth watching, even if the election is already over - maybe.Have thoughts or suggestions?
