Id recommend stopping after you finish the series as there aren't any episodes after that
They snuck one or two into Boba Fett's run.

Can't argue with that. But usually when I'm interested in a series I watch the episodes of each season in a random order, and I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to accidentally start with the shit parts.
Yo what the fuck

Long story. When I was a kid, I found a cool semi-epistolary 8-book series at my school library about a modern-day kid named Pendragon hopping through a portal to save alternate timelines. It was so cool to me that the series jumped around in time so we had to figure out when we were in Pendragon's timeline. Turns out my school shelved them in alphabetical order, and they also lacked the first and last books. I had a blast & I've been trying to recreate that experience ever since.
You know what, I was aghast at first, but I can totally understand what you mean now. Sounds pretty cool
You should check out https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaleidoscope_(American_TV_series)
The Lazarus Project also is a fantastic time jumper. So fucking annoyed Sky cancelled it. It was an amazing show.
If you want to watch stuff out of (chronological) order, try 12 Monkeys (the TV show, not the movie, movie sucks IMO)
What? That movie was awesome.
Now that I know there's a series, gotta go find it.
If you don't actually care about continuity then this may not matter to you, but be aware that season 2 ends with a solid ending for the series. Then The Book of Boba Fett came out and was doing so poorly they shoved the season 3 premiere of Mandalorian as one of the episodes of Boba Fett. So if you went from the s2 finale of Mandalorian to the first episode of s3 of Mandalorian you'll be confused about how many things changed.
Also, season 3 of Mandalorian is when things get silly, like the Jack Black episode and the Pirate King episode.
Does that usually work the first time through?
While the episodes for Mandalorian are self contained, they do build on each other and watching them randomly is gonna be a bit confusing for the background story.
Hahahahaha what the fuck are you smoking. This was the most unexpected twist I've ever seen in a "ask for recommendations" thread.

I mean, there's a reason I didnt lead with that lmao. I know it's demented but I don't think it's completely insane. I mean, George Lucas had a similar experience that gave him the idea of starting the Original Trilogy at Episode 4
