The Mandalorian: Rotten Tomatoes Fans Love It
Lucasfilm’s Disney+ show is tops on the 2020 “Most Anticipated” survey
Mandalorian. Blah. Blah. Awesome. Blah. Blah. Can’t wait. Blah. Mandalorian.
Yes, it’s all hype but that HYPE IS REAL. And it’s obviously not just from dyed in the bantha wool Star Wars fans.
Fans Await The Mandalorian

Case in point, RottenTomatoes.com’s recent Fall 2020 TV Survey, which picked the top 30 most anticipated shows.
While the fall TV season might not necessarily look the same as it did a year ago, there’s still plenty of programming headed to the small screen in the next few months. The main difference: premiere dates. Sure, there are fewer shows coming back, but the more noticeable change is the fact that most shows won’t premiere in September (or even October) like normal. Theoretically, though, many of our favorite series are headed back to TV before 2020 is over.

The first question in our Fall TV Survey was which returning shows fans were most looking forward to. Readers were given more than one vote, allowing them to spread the love around. (Come on, who only watches one single show?)
Unsurprisingly (for anyone who’s seen it, at least), The Mandalorian topped the list — by a wide margin. Around 47 percent of users are looking forward to the live-action Star Wars series’ second season, with 30 percent of women and 52 percent of men all voting for the Disney+ hit. The title is by far the most universally beloved series across all demographics with 50 percent of respondents in the 18-34 age bracket; 47 percent in the 35-54 bracket; and 21 percent in the 55 and over bracket.
That’s just amazing news for Lucasfilm and Disney+ as The Walt Disney Company continues to weather the business downturn in nearly every part of its business (besides streaming TV).
And what’s more amazing is the number of well-reviewed, well-received, beloved shows that The Mandalorian beat out for the top spot.
Included in that list was:
- Fargo
- This is Us
- His Dark Materials
- Star Trek: Discovery
What do you think: Will The Mandalorian live up to the hype? Can “The Child” charm everyone yet again?
