The Mandalorian' continues to look like a breakout success for Disney+ Review by  Brian Lowry ,  The Mandalorian's 'Baby Yoda' is still new to the Disney+ streaming world, but it's already stealing hearts. (CNN) The following contains modest spoilers about "The Mandalorian's" third episode. "The Mandalorian" has become a breakout success for Disney+, and not just because of the mountains of merchandise that "Baby Yoda" is going to move  when it hits shelves .
