I know it may seem odd to compare this to The Mandalorean, but they are spiritually similar for me.

We've had a decade of Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead and Star Wars (*cough*) aiming to reach deep and be part-societal commentary almost. With varying success. Nothing wrong with that, we've all enjoyed it for the most part.. but in the past few years I think people have grown slightly tired of it which is partly why those series faltered.

This show, along with The Mandalorean like I say, following somewhat in the trend of Stranger Things, moves back toward more simple and pure entertainment. Doesn't have to all make intricate sense, doesn't have to be politically correct, some of the dialogue is cheesy- but it feels like pure fun and is very refreshing after the relatively "heavy" shows of the 2010s.
