Disney+ clearly loves claiming success with series like WandaVision and The Mandalorian that require the viewer to sit thru countless hours of useless side-plots only to show progress on the main story of interest at a Glacial Pace.

Clearly they produce / edit the shows this way to extend the number of subscribers over a longer duration. Cute. So instead of a ton of ads eating up our time, we get bloated / drawn out side plots.

A main story arc that would otherwise take one or two episodes to conclude is painfully drawn out over an entire season or three solely to drive revenue on the subscriptions.

Production quality and CGI wizardry be damned - I'm not going to invest time if the story isn't progressing at pace.

After three episodes of being drip-fed hints in this series - I'm giving up. Just like I did after 2 episodes on Season 2 of The Mandalorian.

God forbid viewers should expect the story to progress in significant ways across every episode.

Boring.
