It’s a big week for DotR. We’re ranking the finale of The Bad Batch Season 2, and it’s Christian’s final episode.

It gets a little weird this week without Amanda. Brody and Christian are ranking The Bad Batch Season 2;  Episode 13: Pabu and Episode 14: The Tipping Point. Left unbridled and unchecked, we rant and say some outlandish things without Amanda to challenge us. Is Star Trek better than Star Wars? Is Mokko a better villain than Dr. Hemlock? We’re surprised by her numbers, but we try to examine why and how we come to different conclusions with the Batch. Tune in for a weird one!

This week we’re ranking Episode 9: The Crossing and Episode 10: Retrieval. These are quite mediocre episodes…or are they simply misunderstood? It’s clear these aren’t the strongest pieces of content, and we’re going to explore why. Is this arc a commentary on any one economic system, or rather the tyrant in such systems? Does this series have more interesting characters than The Mandalorian? Tune in as Christian makes a big announcement, and hear our numbers of course!

This week we’re ranking The Mandalorian Season 3, Chapter 20: The Foundling, and we’re discussing it with Jili (@leiaitdown via TikTok).
