The Mandalorian season 3, episode 7 release date, time, channel, and plot

The 2023 Star Wars celebration event may be over, but the party is still on for Disney’s premier Star Wars show. After a two-year hiatus that seemed to last forever, The Mandalorian has triumphantly returned to the small screen. The groundbreaking show proved the Star Wars franchise can work just as well, if not better, on the small screen than in movie theatres, and helped pave the way for successful follow-up series like The Book of Boba Fett, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and the superb Andor.

Because it has been a while, audiences may have forgotten certain specific details about the show or just where and when to watch it. Digital Trends is here with a handy guide to The Mandalorian season 3, including when you can watch episode 7, plus plot details, trailers, and much more.

Episode 7 is titled Chapter 23. At last week’s Star Wars Celebration 2023 event in London, the opening minutes of this episode were screened to attendees so we know a little bit about what’s going to happen. The major revelation is that Moff Gideon returns to the show in this episode. He is shown as a hologram talking to Elia Kane, Gilad Pellaeon, and Brendol Hux about the troublesome Mandalorians, particularly Din and Bo-Katan. In addition, something called “Operation Necromancer” is referenced, a subplot that is likely to pay off either in the finale or down the road in season 4.

Here’s the official plot synopsis for season 3 of The Mandalorian: “The journeys of the Mandalorian through the Star Wars galaxy continue. Once a lone bounty hunter, Din Djarin has reunited with Grogu. Meanwhile, the New Republic struggles to lead the galaxy away from its dark history. The Mandalorian will cross paths with old allies and make new enemies as he and Grogu continue their journey together.”

There are eight episodes in The Mandalorian season 3. This matches the episode count in each of seasons 1 and 2. After this episode, there is only one episode left in season three of The Mandalorian.

Do I need to watch The Book of Boba Fett before The Mandalorian season 3?

Yes! Especially episodes 5, 6, and 7, which feature Din Djarin and develop his relationship with Grogu. Without watching those episodes, you might be confused at the start of The Mandalorian season 3 as things are different for Grogu and company since season 2 ended.

Watch Yellowstone season 5, episode 10: release date, time, channel, and plot
A cowboy stands and stares.

After an almost a two-year hiatus, the Dutton family finally returned to prime-time television with Yellowstone season 5, part 2. Even with the time off, Yellowstone remained a ratings juggernaut, as the premiere generated a whopping 16.4 million viewers across all cable networks and CBS airings. That's an increase of 3% from the season 5, part 1 premiere, which registered 15.9 million viewers.

The biggest question heading into the premiere was how series creator Taylor Sheridan would handle the departure of Kevin Costner as John Dutton. Sheridan wasted no time writing off the patriarch of the Dutton family. Even without John Dutton, his presence will still be felt this season, with the main storyline dealing with the aftermath of his tragic ending. Find out how to watch the next episode of Yellowstone below.
