7 Worst Star Wars Television Episodes (Including Two From The Mandalorian)

Star Wars’ increase in output has led to some quality issues. Even shows with great track records can produce bizarre installments that leave viewers scratching their heads. Here are the seven worst Star Wars television episodes.

7) The Mandalorian Season 3, Episode 6, “Chapter 22: Guns for Hire”

The third season of Star Wars: The Mandalorian is easily its weakest outing, mostly because it feels more like Bo-Katan Kryze’s story than Din Djarin’s. “Chapter 22: Guns for Hire” doesn’t help matters, as it moves away from the main plot by teaming up the two Mandalorians to uncover a Separatist plot on a strange planet. The infusion of Jack Black and Lizzo’s humor only adds to the strange vibe of the episode.

6) The Clone Wars Season 7, Episode 7, “Dangerous Debt”

Star Wars: The Clone Wars‘ final season kicks off with a bang, but it loses momentum when it hits its second arc. Ahsoka Tano becomes the focus of the show once again, and while it’s great to see her again, her new companions, the Martez sisters, are far less likable than Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi. What makes “Dangerous Debt” worse than the other episodes in the arc is that it feels pointless. The crew starts the episode in prison and ends it there, too, after a failed escape attempt.

5) Star Wars Rebels Season 3, Episode 8, “Iron Squadron”

It’s hard to rag on Star Wars Rebels because it’s so wholesome. However, the show crosses a line in Season 3 when it introduces the Iron Squadron. The Ghost crew usually doesn’t have trouble getting along with other rebel cells, but the Iron Squadron pushes all of their buttons. No matter how effective they are in a dogfight, Mart Mattin and Co. don’t have what it takes to have a future in the franchise.

4) The Book of Boba Fett Episode 3, “Chapter 3: The Streets of Mos Espa”

Few Star Wars shows receive as much hate as The Book of Boba Fett. Most of the complaints stem from the fact that the series shows the titular bounty hunter in a new light. While it’s hard to buy into that argument because characters should be able to grow, there’s no defending The Book of Boba Fett‘s third episode. Boba encounters a group of cyborgs that feel out of place in a Star Wars project, opening the door for some strange choreography and dialogue.

3) The Mandalorian Chapter 2, Episode 2, “Chapter 10: The Passenger”

The reveals at the end of The Mandalorian Season 1 set the stage for an epic sophomore outing. Unfortunately, Din and Gorgu come out of the gate slow, getting stranded on an ice planet in “Chapter 10: The Passenger.” The creature work in the episode is top-tier, but the plot doesn’t move at all. Tossing a filler episode that early in the season is always a recipe for disaster.

2) The Acolyte Episode 7, “Choice”

Given that The Acolyte got the boot after only one season, it should come as no surprise that one of its episodes is part of this list. The lucky entry is Episode 7 “Choice,” which finally peels the curtain back on the mystery surrounding the planet Brendok. Like most Star Wars stories, the Jedi make a lot of mistakes in “Choice,” but the show doesn’t do enough to explain their wild behavior.

1) Star Wars: The Clone Wars Movie

There’s no need to rush to the comments, as Star Wars: The Clone Wars isn’t technically an episode. It is the start of the series, though, and it’s bad enough to warrant a spot. In addition to doing a poor job of introducing Ahsoka, the movie’s Rotta the Hutt-centric story leaves a lot to be desired. It’s going to take everything The Mandalorian & Grogu has to redeem that character.
