Mandalorian Ep 5 Review: Interesting Hanger Bay Lady


Listen Later

Heroes Garage is a weekly podcast that review science fiction, fantasy, super hero, and horror TV shows and movies. 


Story: As predicted, Mando and Baby Yoda are chased by a bounty hunter in a spaceship. They destroy their pursuer but their ship requires repairs. They land on Luke’s home planet and at Mos Eisley SpacePort - iconic. The interesting and strange hanger-bay lady (Amy Sedaris as Peli Motto)  appears providing comedic relief. Mando takes a job to make money to repair his ship. He meets a rookie Mandalorian (Jake Cannavale as Toro Calican) and helps them track down a dangerous bounty hunter (Ming-Na Wen as Fennec Shand) to obtain the reward. After obtaining her, the rookie betrays Mando. Mando, of course, easily defeats him. However, a shadowy figure is seen over the (dead? unconscious?) body of the dangerous bounty hunter at the end of the episode setting yet more intrigue.

New Characters: Amy Sedaris as Peli Motto - the hanger bey worker. Quirky and funny. Ming-Na Wen as Fennec Shand - the dangerous bounty hunter. Jake Cannavale as Toro Calican - the greasy, loser rookie Mandalorian.

Entertainment value/visual effects: The visual of entering the iconic spaceport on Tatooine is cool. Not many visual highlights, otherwise.

Predictions sure to be right (because the story is unoriginal):

Mandalorian is picked up for another series…

Are we missing the boat in the streaming wars discussion?

Is this a zero-sum, winner takes all battle or something more complex?

With multiple platforms Disney Plus, HBO max, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Apple TV - what is the measurement of success, profitability?

How will most people decide between products assuming that the average American can only afford so many streaming services.

  1. Is the content good enough
  2. Do the shows reflect the people and values that represent me/my culture and beliefs
  3. Will the fringes suffer more, gain more, etc.
