Episode one — a fun start. More intro than anything, but done by the same folks as Mandalorian and has a similar feel.
And now we know how Boba isn't still being digested.
I liked it. Nothing flashy, but made sense. RIP random storm trooper guy.

Drew Magary, SFGate: 'The Book of Boba Fett' premiere is an abysmal failure on every level
Magary provided some entertainment value while at Deadspin and on that episode of Chopped (NSFW review by former NFL player Chris Kluwe), but this wholesale denouncement after watching a single episode was just bizarre.It’s been a long time since I’ve watched something as embarrassing as "The Book of Boba Fett." I’ve seen better acting in home movies. I’ve played iPhone games that have better special effects. I’ve seen more convincing fight scenes on reality television. The whole affair, from beginning to end, is the worst episode of television I’ve seen this year, or any other year. It’s worse than polio. It makes me never want to watch anything related to "Star Wars" ever again, and maybe I won’t.
I have seen the episode, and I have the feeling it's going for something different than The Mandalorian, something slower and more contemplative, and I have yet to decide whether I will like that. While Magary was down on the casting of Temuera Morrison here, I believe in continuity (he played Jango Fett in the prequel trilogy and voiced adult Boba and the Stormtroopers, so he should live-action play all of his clones*) and had no problem with it.
With Betty White's death in the news, it seems fitting to make this comparison.
The Book of Boba Fett (premiered December 29, 2021)

*Thinking about it more now, it's interesting that Boba Fett escapes from the Sarlacc using resources off his "brother", some unknown half-digested Stormtrooper.
I just watched Chapter 1. I thought it was very cool from start to finish!
Loved the way it started with Fett alive inside the sand monster, where he fell in SW Episode VI. I'm not sure exactly how this time line goes with all the jumping around. I've never watched any of the animated series so I don't have any of the background info.
Ozzie, your paradigm of optimism!

Yep! I am a bit of a Star Wars nerd, and as soon as I saw him I was like "OOOOH that is that Wookie bounty hunter!" Tho I admit, I didn't know his name. GREAT look... you don't get black wookies that often!
And yeah, the Pikes, and the spice trade... that was interesting! Love that we are getting into the crime world of Star Wars.
