The Mandalorian Season 3 has been a game-changer — not only in its content, but in its plot that centers Bo-Katan as the prophesied “chosen one,” and in its redefinition of the title itself. But most game-changing of all has been its episode runtimes. After a wildly varying first half of the season with episodes ranging from a sparse 30 minutes to almost an hour, the latter half settled on a 35-45 minute range, echoing the length of the hour-long dramas that came before it.
