Hell, I wish they'd DO an old style 'cliffhanger' ending for one or more of these 'The Mandalorian' episodes, maybe they actually will at some point...but given the way they've done the first two, I doubt it will happen.

Star Wars was already doing pretty well in the serialized half hour format with The Clone Wars and Rebels.
Thinking about it, The Mandalorian really doesn't feel that far off from one of The Clone Wars multipart storylines. Granted some of that might have something to do with Dave Filoni being involved.
Fair enough.
But to see it in live action is something that is really neat. George was trying to bring that stuff from the page to make it really tangible.. as a film. And now to see that television live action can do what he had never dreamed of in the 70s is really something to see.
True, but having cliffhanger type stories doesn't mean they need to end with actual cliffhangers.. it might be enough that it's going from one danger to another worse, or at least different, danger throughout each episode. That style is something love.
Bigotry... that's what's behind the thinking. Bigotry and fear of a changing world.
what bigotry?
Not to mention fear of losing control.
He had control of movies???
Losing control of the world around him.
I mean seriously. STar Wars was originally marketed to 12 year old boys. Eventually, because the story is timeless and universal, people of other demographics liked it. They did not cater to a politically correct demographic just for sake winning points with those groups. As soon as they do that, they just squander whatever inspiration they might have. And the evidence for that is right in their faces.
I mean now with Disney Star Wars they had a female lead in three of the four films, but they can't stop complaining about in justice.

The Empire sacked worlds and took slaves.

Some folks can go too far the other way, taking any story decision as an insult. It doesn't mean diversity isn't a worthwhile endeavor.
On a more relevant note, it's amazing how one little thing can humanize a character. Here is a character that is in a mask and barely talks, so all the usual things like facial expressions are not tools they can use.. just well delivered sparse dialogue and good performance in head and body movement.
And mud. I mean really.. mud...it's so simple, but it's amazing how the scene where he gets covered in mud humanizes this character. Most of us knows what it feels like to covered in mud, to struggle while being utterly filthy . And it really gives us more to relate to in this character than we've had in like a long time in Star Wars.

Game of Thrones is the current epitome of an epic drama. Only 17 of the 73 episodes were longer than an hour. There was even a 49 minute episode in Season 7. It averages out at about 59 minutes an episode. There is no expectation for any TV show to last more than an hour, unless it has been advertised as such (e.g. reality competition shows which often fill a 2-hour timeslot).
