Do you consider Chapter 4 a "filler episode" ?
Or did it actually take the narrative forward?
shareThere's going to be a lot of filler in any TV series like this.

Narrative? It's an adversary of the week show!
shareIt was a solid standalone story. And in this day and age of overserialization, I really miss TV shows like this where stuff actually happened in each episode instead of having everything push an overarching soap opera narrative. At last, good television is back.
sharei agree. It's refreshing to see a show that is well-made, but isn't trying to be a 13-hour-long movie chopped into 13 chapters. I'm also glad it wasn't dumped on us all at once. It's nice to watch each week. I feel like one retains more when a show is watched this way than when binged.
shareIndeed.
shareWho cares, it was very entertaining. If you didn't like it, you're watching wrong.
shareIt felt like i was watching an episode of Hercules and Xena from the 90's. Terrible episode. So annoyingly simple with the good guys and bad guys. Nothing interesting about it.
shareEpisodes 4 and 5 i feel like they were slow filler episodes. Especially episode 5 where they were on Tattooine. The only thing interesting was the sign language with the Tuskens and that a bar was taken over by a droid and they never did say if that was Mos Eisley or some other town
shareYes
shareIt was character and world building. And a nice nod to Seven Samurai. And the Firefly episode Heart of Gold. Which of course is a nice nod to Seven Samurai.
