At last, the wait is over! After a two-year hiatus that seemed to last forever, The Mandalorian has triumphantly returned to the small screen.

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 3, plot details, trailers, and much more.

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.
