Got around to watching this last night and wasn't very impressed.
Most of the time I was wondering aloud why Boba Fett, bad-ass, merciless bounty hunter, was getting his ass whupped, looking upset/displeased at some random farmer's execution and generally acting conciliatory towards potentially dangerous adversaries. Really doesn't make much sense yet... Boba Fett was a goddammed villain, let him be a villain for ****'s sake.
Overall I thought it was rather weak.

Wait a minute... these Tuskens also kidnapped and tortured Boba Fat and used him for slave labor. So he saved one of the kids and got accepted as a semi-bad ass by the tribe, that doesn't change how he was treated previously.
Or is my sarcasm detector malfunctioning?

Sad state of affairs when I'm more entertained by a Karate Kid spinoff than a Boba Fett show made by Jon Favreau.

I don't think the Tusken Raiders are nice people (creatures.) And that's OK. It's not some weird cultural attack. Infusing today's politics into everything is so boring and tired. Look....it was over 45 years ago when the movie was made. There are no black people (other than James Earl Jones' voice) in the original movie. Lucas wasn't making a statement about Indians or muslims or anything. They were just violent desert raiders.
I didn't mind Boba showing compassion to that kid. As we (unfortunately) saw in AOTC, he was a dumb annoying kid once, too.
As for the Rodian, he probably wanted to free him cause two heads are better than one when it comes to escaping your captors.
Despite all this, yes, I feel like he was waaay too soft in the pilot episode and I doubt that will change over the next six episodes.
(PS.....I'm starting to get the feeling that the Fremen from Dune just miiiiiight be a metaphor for Arabs, and Arrakis and its "spice" is just a metaphor for the middle east and oil. Probably just in my head though. I'm sure nobody else ever noticed such a thing.)

Of course. Who wouldn't be excited to see this bumbling version of Boba Fett prove he still has it by putting an Ithorian gardener in his place.

Hmm… Wonder if they’ve intertwined the story with the new sequel lore. Maybe we see Fett, for some unearthly reason visits Grogu, where we’ll also see a young Kylo training with Luke.
Or is Kylo not yet born? Got to dig a bit further into it. Not read on any leaks so far.
One thing is certain though. In the next episode, we’ll see Boba Fat…
* SPOILER *
go visit the Polynesian spa…
