This show sucks, you guys. It's taken a mysterious, bad ass bounty hunter and turned him into a slow moving, slightly corrupt politician. Of all of the show's sins (and there are many), the worst may be that it's simply boring. I know when I first saw Boba in Empire and Jedi my first thought was I'd love to see him in a long dialogue heavy scene next to a fire. Oh and remove his helmet, armor, blasters, flame thrower, and definitely his rocket pack and replace those with a big stick, please.
You are not wrong. Even fennec isn't great at protecting him in a few episodes. I'm watching every week for the end credit music at this point.

Speaking of music
I only realized that was the Mando theme after reading posts on r/starwars. Because the two themes sound exactly the same. Bring it, tif.

The Boba Fett singing just sounds like South Park doing a parody of the theme lol

I'd like to comment on the BOBF music, but it is utterly unremarkable and I can't actually recall any of it.

Also, the Ahsoka series has apparently started filming at Manhattan Beach Studios (nee Marvel Studios).

Best episode of Boba Fett by far which makes sense considering this was an episode of The Mandalorian.

Yeah, best episode of the series without the name sake character even in it. Interesting.

I'm so very torn here. Yes , it was the best episode of BOBF, but that's not saying much.

Thoughts
The gift he had forged out of the spear is 100% a little sphere of beskar. When he reunites with Grogu, the little guy can fixate on a piece of Mandalore instead of a lever relic from the Razor Crest.

How did Din Djarin get back into the Guild? More importantly, why did he get back into the Guild? Seems to go against his character development.

They turned the Armorer into a bit of a dick, and I do not like that.

Exactly what is Mando supposed to do with a ship that has no cargo hold?

The circular orbital environment was super cool, and one of the best 'things' Disney Star Wars has given us.

I have only around 30% confidence that the actor Pedro Pascal was actually photographed for this episode.
The things that resonated had nothing to do with the title character, like DG said.

Best episode of Fett, near the bottom episode of Mando. Just shows you how much better Mandalorian is than Fett.

I could be wrong here, but didn't they show the armorer making a little set of grogu chain mail? I like the ball idea though!

I really love how sad he is without his buddy

That's initially what I thought, and would be in keeping with what the Armorer said about the purpose of the stuff, and they did show materials consistent with that. But the satchel he was presented with at the end of it all is way too small imo. It was palm-of-hand size.

The episode had everything the others lacked. Space, spaceships, a space station, starships, and vehicles built for interstellar travel.
