Spoilers for 'The Mandalorian' Season 2 Chapter 9 'The Marshal'

In all the talk leading up to the premiere of 'The Mandalorian' Season 2, Baby Yoda colloquially known as 'The Child' was a constant topic of discussion. The adorable Lil green pipsqueak believed to be of Yoda's species was the cynosure of all eyes and attention in Season 1. With the first episode of the new season dropping on Disney+, there was quite less of Baby Yoda and his lovable cooing and more of action. The 55-minute episode in all probability had 30% of Baby Yoda.

To be honest, it does make sense as the episode focused its attention on Marshal Cobb Vanth (Timothy Olyphant), who spearheads the town of Mos Pelgo. Together, Mando/Din Djarin and Vanth attempt to kill a Krayt Dragon that wreaks havoc in Tattooine. For those who hoped for more of the tiny frog-muncher, they had a better surprise with Boba Fett (Temuera Morrison) making an appearance in the final minutes of the episode. 

That though didn't dampen spirits as fans were too happy aww-ing over Baby Yoda. Not all were really happy too. "So I’ve been trying to fix my sleep schedule. I managed to fall asleep around 9:30 tonight. It then got woken up at 1:30 am by my brother and his friend who's been staying with us talking really loudly in the kitchen about the new season of the Mandalorian. Dammit, Baby Yoda!" read a tweet. "Just watched the new episode of The Mandalorian. BABY YODA THO... " And here's a new entrant to the Baby Yoda Fan Club. "might watch the mandalorian purely for baby yoda" "just finished watching episode one of the mandalorian season 2....i cannot get enough of baby yoda," wrote one of the fans.

Also, sans Baby Yoda, to some, this was some great content from the 'Star Wars' franchise. The season opened to positive critical acclaim with creator Jon Favreau earning all the accolades. Such was the popularity that sometimes clicking to know more about the character was worth it. "The world is burning down around us and the #mandalorian is actually trending on Twitter. #Starwars #Thechild #babyyoda Bring on Season two #DisneyPlus"
