[@rogerroger5171]

Great interview!!! Its great seeing Katee in this position knowing how hard she has worked over the years. She brings a lot to the role and am looking very much for the upcoming season of Mandalorian!!!

[@masterjedipk1249]

Great Great interview/but really conservation, you can tell how comfortable she was because of the friendship, love the stuff about her giving props to her stunt performers. Glad she has been able to work on this character from animation to live action 🎬. Great Job Kristian and Brett.😁

[@thedaganmall]

That damn leaf blower guy.. every freakin time...

[@robertrains7029]

Great job

[@Hanshotfirst138]

Such an amazing actress...everything she does is awesome!she was great in clone wars and rebels some of my favorite episodes..also one of my favorite characters....even finally getting her black series figure whicj was long overdue!!lshe's an important character and it's her own character which makes it even more great ...as for mandolorian ...AWESOME!!!! Thank you for some amazing starwars memories

[@shtposternutbag8207]

That segment around the 50-minute mark with Katee joking about the craziness of being a new mom was just hilarious. It’s really nice to see someone with her level of success continue to be so humble and personable. Always excited to see her interviews with you since you guys flow so well!

[@marc-andrecharlebois5312]

Had me in stitches

[@pauly51]

@53:05 lmao

[@CaptainRockoBD]

I’m surprised people aren’t whining about some of the stuff that she said knowing people these days lol 🤣

[@raidersfaninreno1045]

Ok, Katee’s mini breakdown and raw cathartic parenting rant is just pure gold. Even the leaf-blower guy was quiet for that. Great great show guys.

[@keaton3174]

Hearing the praise that Katee gives to all of her stunt performers and how graciously she speaks about them all working together to bring Bo to life is a testament to how gracious she is as a person and makes me that much more of a fan.

[@AngelaSealana]

Yes, absolutely agree. The other performers "in the helmet" deserve so much credit they don't usually get.

[@jirenthegoat9717]

Katee seems like a real genuine person, glad they gave her the opportunity to bring Bo Katan to live action.

[@TheKristianHarloff]

Totally agree! She is a real one!

[@AnnatarCarvour]

Same here shes perfect for her an she is a star wars geek to. She has really carried Bo's animated movements an style perfectly into live action ! Your awesome Katee!

[@TheOfficialValor]

I couldn’t imagine anyone else

[@aduffy31]

Katee describing what it’s like to be a mom had me laughing uncontrollably while sitting alone on an airplane 😂! She always seems like such a cool genuine person every time she comes on and I cannot wait to see her in Mando Season 3! Great interview Kristian and Brett! This is the way!

[@loganv20]

Katee's face, laugh and smile at 46:45 when Harloff asks, "am I going to lose my mind" is great! I can't wait for the first episode!!!

[@TheKristianHarloff]

Same!!

[@LegitScott]

Katee’s excitement for Season 3 is really infectious, got me even more hyped for Wednesday! And she’s hilarious!! Loved the part where she hyped up Mercedes, hopefully Bo-Katan and Koska Reeves reunite on screen. 🤞🏻

[@thedarkknight2221]

I’m so unbelievably happy for and proud of Katee! She went from playing a character that she voiced in Clone Wars almost 10 years ago, to now playing and pretty much becoming Bo-Katan in live action. I hope that she has a VERY large role in Mandalorian season 3, because both the character and the actress should on the same mainstream level of Din Djarin and Pedro Pascal. Love you Katee!❤❤

[@TheKristianHarloff]

Hope so!!

[@thechronicnoizeco.6675]

I was thrilled when she showed up in Mandalorian. I’ve rewatched Battllestar at least 4 times. She’s very worthy of all her roles.

[@CarlLepeltier]

Katee Sackhoff is one of my very favorite people in the movie industry, because she's so humane, big-hearted, compassionate as well as very passionate ; she cares and wears her heart on her sleeves. And she has this great energy of life that's really communicative. Such a bliss it is to see her as this amazing character that's Bo Katan, in this deeply enjoyable ride/adventure that is this 'The Mandalorian' series... :)

[@davecamadini]

So cool that Katee continues to come on the show. Appreciate her authenticity. Did you see her face and hear her giggle when she said “I cant wait for you guys to see this season” and then Harloff goes “am i gonna lose my mind?” Hahaha priceless. She knows we are all gonna geek out when the show drops. Can’t wait.

[@TheKristianHarloff]

She knows me too well!

[@garethrhodes7340]

I love how relaxed and easy Katee is with you guys, which clearly points toward the strong friendship you have with her. I think she's one of the most humble, real and honest people I've heard interviewed on your show, which I think also comes across in her acting. Thank you for the interview.

[@TheeGoatPig]

this is not only Katee's best appearance on a Harloff production, this is your best interview ever.

[@smidgemyster]

As great as the Mandalorian talk was, seeing the Katee have her parental meltdown was the highlight of my day 😂😂

[@quinnaguirre6937]

She's the greatest. She seems like she'd be an amazing best friend to hang with.

[@Mark_o_Helm]

51:35 i cried laughing. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Loth_Wolf]

I appreciate Katee's commitment to the role. It is such a gift to fans that she has brought Bo-Katan to life, such a complicated and intense character. We really don't know if Bo-Katan can overcome her arrogance and pride to help create a tolerant social structure in which Mandalorians can live without being in a constant state of war. Katee's attention to detail, really projects Bo's conflicted emotions and sense of duty. With all the things going on in Sackhoff's life it is just so impressive that she continues to deliver for fans, especially that she pushes for little things that only she can bring -- I am so glad she fought to get the scar on the forehead just right. thank you

[@doowrondog2976]

Katee is any outstanding actress IMO. I’ve followed her work starting with Rebels; and she brings such confidence to the Bo Katan character! She absolutely rocks and I can’t wait to see her this season on The Mandalorian!

[@ryknorr]

Bo katan has been my favourite Star Wars character since I first saw her in the clone wars and I’m absolutely stoked to get to see more of her in season 3

[@Huguex00]

Thanks Katee for being such a nice person. It makes us feel like we belong to a Galaxy that, somehow, doesn't seems that Far, Far Away anymore. Love what you've always brought to the character. Looking forward to seeing her shine this season!

[@Zimbabadoo]

Thanks Katee for entertaining me growing up with BSG and now with my 9 and 12 year old kids with clone wars and Mando. My Daughter love whenever Bo shows up.

[@justingarza24]

i relate to Katee’s “mom stories” lol. i’ve been taking care of my nephew for 2 months now & i know exactly what y’all are talking about. same reason i’ve been watching for 8 yrs now, relatable / real people just shootin’ the shit. i appreciate y’all :)

[@hobbesyoda]

Katee's breakdown about motherhood has got to be one of the best segments on the show 🤣 as always great interview!

[@Scotty-BK]

I’m a long time fan of Katee’s and BSG is still one of the best shows ever put on TV. Stoked for her continued success and cannot wait to see what happens this season!

[@mlondonop]

Katee is awesome and the mega passion she has for Bo and for Star Wars in general is amazing! Plus she’s gorgeous and her humility and realness is great to see.

[@clintonprine-js7yw]

The part with Katee talking about being a parent was awesome. I paused and played for my wife. We were both cracking up. Only parents understand the pain.

[@martinshortzenegger]

She flows so well with you and Brett. Too bad she is such a great actor bc she would be a phenomenal part of the Big Thing team!

[@LucidFlux]

Terrific interview Kristian, as a fairly new parent and starwars fan this episode spoke to me on so many levels. Katee's therapy session 53:00 had me dying. 2 more days!

[@darthsidious47]

That was the best part it was hilarious

[@Shangyou]

Episode 1 was awesome! Only saw Bo Katan for just a bit but I'm so hyped to see what else she'll do in the rest of the season! 💯

[@RJCXDOfficial]

I absolutely love Katee and her role in the Harloff-Verse. She's been a part of this lore for such a long time. You guys are friendship goals

[@ahmadkennedy5916]

I love chemistry between Kristen and Katee... You can tell y'all are real friends and you can tell she's a true fan of Star Wars!

[@JLOFlix]

Katee RULES!! Great interview guys! I'm glad that you're friends after all these years!

[@piklezy6818]

Katee was great and such a great actress, I could not imagine any other actor playing Bo, great show

[@TheKristianHarloff]

Agreed!!

[@heeroisafan9613]

Katee is so funny. I couldn't stop laughing when she was talking about her daughter. Hope she comes back on a regular basis during Mando seasons.

[@UmpaHimself]

What an awesome person and friend Katee is to keep coming back to this show and being so generous with her time. Awesome!

[@johnvandellen2759]

She also really loves being in an interview setting where she can talk like herself too. You can just tell how comfortable she is talking with Kristian. Can't wait for the 2nd interview where she can really let loose!

[@craigchopko19]

This is my first time seeing your show. I'm now a fan. I've been down with Star Wars since day 1. I was born in '73, it's been such a constant in my life. I watched your show because of Katee Sackhoff. As a huge SW fan, it is so incredible that she is a part of the SW Universe because Katee might be one of the most incredible human beings on earth.

[@hito157]

That parent talk section is Truth! Great having Katee on again.

[@EverythingMovieReviews]

Katee’s breakdown is why her every visit to the show is an absolute must-watch! She’s a national treasure!

[@Doug_B]

This interview was awesome! Just three friends hanging out but one of them is freaking BO KATAN! Katee is such a genuine, down to earth person and that is so refreshing. Thanks for this interview! ♥️

[@thetamation9863]

Wonderful interview. So cool to come back here after the first few episodes of Mando season 3 and see Katee talk about how this season will blow our minds. She seems to be a huge part of this season, and I'm all for it. Loved hearing from her this interview.

[@thelegionnairepodcast3094]

You are the reason I wanted to start a podcast with my brother. Will listen to anything you put out. Katee is such a fantastic actress and a very genuine human being. If I win the helmet, I will wear it for an entire podcast on my own show. You're the man, Kristian, keep the content coming!

[@TheKristianHarloff]

Very very kind of you! Thank you!!

[@riverghost]

Always love seeing Katee on the show with you; you've always had such a good chemistry that it always feels like a great chat with friends than any other interview.

[@xanderman55]

Wow, Katee Sackhoff is such an amazing actress and her portrayal of Bo-Katan in The Mandalorian has been truly outstanding! It's so exciting to hear her talk about the upcoming season 3 and what we can expect from her character's arc. I can't wait to see how Bo-Katan's journey continues and how Katee brings her to life on screen once again. The Mandalorian just keeps getting better and better, and I'm eagerly counting down the days until the new season drops. Thank you for this amazing interview!

[@mcnizzzle3961]

I’d never seen Katie in an interview before this. She’s just as cool off the screen as on it! I was so excited when i first heard she’d return from voice acting the role to do the live action portrayal. What a perfect fit

[@Nexus8VK]

Always a treat to see these long-form Katee Sackhoff interviews, “leaf blower interruptions” and all. :)

[@WelliAbdullah]

Kia Ora from Aotearoa New Zealand! Be warned, do not watch this video during work hour in office. I did it and my co workers jumped surprised when I burst laughing during the "baby rant" 🙂 Great conversation!

[@Arc_514]

It’s awesome to know that we have such a sincere and amazing person in the star wars universe.

[@reelstellar]

Listening to how excited she is makes me feel so good about this season. Episode 1 was awesome and just knowing that she’s a Star Wars fan herself just has me feeling like something amazing is gonna happen this season. Especially the cheesy grin she got when you asked if you were gonna lose your mind haha great interview once again, Harloff!

[@Doppierbutton]

I have been waiting for this interview for so long!! She is kind and humble makes you really root for in her career

[@TheKristianHarloff]

She is just as genuine as it gets!

[@graceonfilmsnstuff]

@@TheKristianHarloff 🙏 amen

[@dannycarbajal782]

Katee is such an amazing actor and it’s been so cool to see her stay so grounded and stay her fun self. I can’t wait to see her in this new season of the Mandalorian.

[@andrelamarr7188]

The interview was so great. I loved the mix of personal and professional mix. Ty for sharing and being vulnerable. S3 E1 was great... i feel so bad for Bo shes alone on a throne with a droid that didnt even question Mando. I almost met you Katee at S.F show but you had to cancel i was sooo bumbed. I was bringing a pic for you to sign and a card. I brought your 'co-workers' each a card. Yours just said .. i love your acting i was introduced to you from StarBuck and loved her and then went back to look at other stuff eg. Bionic Woman, longmire. You are one of my favs and you really know how to get people invested in you characters. Oh you laughed during your interview with Kristian and was like omgosh that starbucks laugh! 😁 i know its you but you never know how actors switch up to be a character. Anyway ty SITHCOUNCIL AND KATEE. gbu

[@cieslinskib53193]

Been watching your channel for a long time and I am currently watching this amazing interview with my 3 month old son. I cannot wait to show him your content when he gets older. I also can’t wait to see Katee kill it in Mando S3. Keep up the great work Kristian and crew!!

[@jrlaudio]

Having watched Katee's career and watching her work and loving it all, to see she has a place where she can just talk to friends and talk shop as well as her life, with no pressure, is a rare luxury for all of us. Thank you for being a good friend to her and giving her a venue that is just comfortable and where we can see her just being herself. Thanks Kristian. Good fortune to Katee.

[@TheKristianHarloff]

Wow, thank you!

[@wutang2905]

I can't wait to see the new season!! She sounds like such a big fan and it's awesome that she was cast after voicing her in the animated series!!! I hope she shows up in Ahsoka 🤞

[@evanconklin9091]

The Mandalorian means to much to me. During the time it first aired my Nana was in the not doing well and in the hospital. Being in the hospital her sleep schedule was funky and she happened to be awake every Wednesday night at 3am. This became our special time to watch mando and grogu adventure through the galaxy together. Nana recently passed away, but Bo Katan was her absolute favorite character. I am so happy to see that Katee Sackhoff is the most genuine and caring person ever. She reminds me so much of my Nana and I can’t wait to see how much involvement she has in season 3. I love you Nana. This one is for you 🤍

[@alexkociuba5457]

Honestly reading that got me the closest to shedding a tear I’ve been in a very long time evanconklin9091. You and your Nana really embody what the Mandalorian is really about. Hope Nana rests in peace ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹‼️

[@SabreeGaming114]

I got to see Katee Sackoff at Celebration Anaheim from a distance but she was too busy to be able to say hi, but she is amazing in everything that she does!

[@gustavogirotto]

Man, Katee is such a down to earth person. I love her ever since Battlestar Galactica and she brings so much to Bo-Katan. Can’t wait to see her in the new season. :)

[@RJReed]

Been watching since Katee prank called Jeremy Jahns all those years ago. It's so cool to see how far she's come as Bo-Katan. Never miss the show when she's on.

[@TheKristianHarloff]

Oh man yeah that was a good one!

[@lukestoybox6613]

Loved this interview. Thank you for connecting us with these awesome guests 👍

[@chrisretzlaff2895]

I love seeing her on the show, and like other people you interview, she seems so down to earth and relaxed, she's just hanging out with you guys, not on a promotion media tour. I love that they come on because they genuinely like talking to you.

[@MRehman25]

First off, great to see Katee back again! Was listening to the show on Spotify while driving with my dad, and he asked me when he’s gonna get grandkids. And I swear it was like magic that Katee had her breakdown right at that moment. My dad stopped asking me about grandkids immediately

[@MRehman25]

Also as a Canadian, Katee counts as an honorary Canuck

[@TheKristianHarloff]

That's awesome!

[@troybracy2915]

My love for the show has just skyrocketed because Kristian has been getting these amazing guests with great interviews. I know it's not a competition but the guests that comes on The BIG THING is what makes the show slightly better than the John campeas show for me. I laugh soooo much! The part when Katee started crying talking about her new beautiful baby was legendary lol

[@jesc1201]

This show taught me many things. 1 Katie is so underrated and needs to be in more movies and tv! 2 if I have kids I’m gonna ask Kristian to let me on his show to vent and treat it as a therapy session. 😅

[@KeithWilsonUK]

She was great as the antagonist in Bionic Woman reboot too!

[@s3p4kner]

In S3 Ep 2 The way Katee was able to grow Bo Katan as a character with just a few lines of dialogue and a tilt of her head was amazing. Credit to the script but what Katee brought is a testament to her skill. All of Bo's malignant bitterness as she broods in her castle over what could have been, the longing she has for the past as she talks to Grogu and Din, the tears she's long since cried. I felt it all. We even get an episode of Lassie mixed in! "It's time to get rid of Din forever, I vont to be alone! Wait! Whats that? Little Din's gone fallen down the well? Let's goooooo!" Then he literally did ha! It tickled me XD When Mando came into Boba Fett's show, he stole it; But, when Bo came into Mando she enriched it and I can't wait to see what Katee does next in this show and I know she has the chops to handle it.

[@jakeschroeder5729]

Been a huge fan of Kristian and this show since 2015 back since I was in high school. This show and community have always been a fun and engaging place to goof off and talk about movies. Have loved seeing Katee on the show for years now (shout out my fellow Pacific Norwester!) and now to her doing all this national press has been really awesome!

[@briangresty1398]

Excellent interview. All my questions were answered! Katee was amazing. Thank you so much for this. So great to have you dude. You are a fan who loves fans!

[@mjsharkey]

Katee is amazing! I've heard you say you knew her for so many years, but this interview shows it! So fun watching you tell her she's full of it when she claims she doesn't know there's a season 4! Thanks for this! #sendmethathelmut 🙂

[@OneRedFeatherStudios.]

Great interview Kristian. Katee is a master of showing enthusiasm about this upcoming season, while still protecting spoilers. Love her vibe.

[@TheKristianHarloff]

Same!

[@darthkso3745]

Katee is such a gem. She’s a bright light in Hollywood today.

[@nievescalaycay7120]

I have so much respect for the generosity and humility of actors who acknowledge their stunt doubles. The comment that they are puppeteers operating the characters resonates with me. The ability to merge the best of those performances is what makes the final product so amazing. When Katee thanked her double for allowing her time to be a mom was the absolute best!!!

[@jameswashington1163]

I don't know why but the fact Katee is a huge star wars fan like the rest of us it makes her appearance in the show so much better, its like she's just excited her being on set as we are watching her! I hope I get to meet her in London! Ep1 of season 3 was utter godly!!! "This is the way" 🤖

[@jakemeyer8188]

Katee is the best. Hands down, end of story. Edit: As a dad who had a raise a newborn by himself, her parenting rant really hit home, and I'm sitting here screaming, "PREACH Katee!" to an empty room...

[@AngelaSealana]

LOL the best visual

[@the_wild_dinosaur]

Great episode! Cant wait for Katee to come back after season 3

[@TheKristianHarloff]

Same here!

[@randyavenell1446]

Super glad the Lawn dude could make an extended appearance on this episode. He is very dedicated to The Big Thing. I love it when Katee comes on the show. She always seems comfortable and at ease with you. Awesome episode, Kristian & Brett!

[@TheKristianHarloff]

He really is

[@TheIrishAmish]

This interview was just so FUN, having seen what happened in Mando just a month after this!

[@vaderdave5046]

You were so right about her street cred! She is a complete icon! She is just SOOO good in everything!!!

[@TheKristianHarloff]

She really is.

[@troybracy2915]

The chemistry is extra special in this Interview you can tell Katee Sackhoff and kristian go way back to the schmoes know days! She is my favorite guest by far because she feels like family. When Bret said "there aren't even any leafs back there" I cried 😂

[@TheKristianHarloff]

Hahaa

[@MikevanMastrigt]

This was a really nice interview with Katee. Like how you talked about parenthood, can really relate to it. I love the Mandalorian, bo katan kryze is one of my favourite star wars characters. Katee is doing an awesome job for this character.

[@przybarts3651]

Amazing interview! I'm starstruck just by watching you guys talk to Katee. Love the show, love Mandalorian, and love Bo Katan!

[@rjlee_]

this was a great interview, thanks Kristian! excited for what's to come for season three of mando

[@erickottemann3324]

Full circle moment with this video. I would watch the Thursday night shows when I was in college ( almost 10 years ago, geez). Kept up with the different iterations of the Star Wars + General Movie coverage, and got to attend several Star Wars Celebrations. Between becoming a first-time dad this year, getting closer to 30, and how Star Wars has evolved in the last 10 years, this interview just hits in so many different ways. Well done, Kristian + Brett, and big congrats to Katee. This was a tangible reminder of how many things can change but somehow still feel the same. This Is the Way

[@MokeleMbembeLives]

Thank you for bringing Katee back! I frakkn love her!

[@PaddyMcShane]

Been a fan of hers since early 2000's when I first saw BSG. She's so clearly a genuine human being! Always entertaining watching her interviews. Fun podcast!

[@zackfinn1762]

Thank you for adding those couple one liners Brett! We can always count on you to do that during interviews

[@randallgeorge8370]

I think it’s so cool Katee was able to play Bo in live action. I think that tells you a lot about her talent as well as Dave/Johns respect for the story/Star Wars/fans. Also, I want that helmet!

[@KennyGiron94]

Such a rad interview! Thank you so much

[@MrSamuelArthurRobertAllen]

great interview katee so glad you came back.

[@matthews7176]

Katee is an absolute professional but so down to earth and I could listen to her talk all day. Can’t wait to see her back on tomorrow. She stole the show this season

[@TheKristianHarloff]

She kicks ass.

[@augierivera3290]

I absolutely love when Katee shows up on the shows. Been watching since the early Schmoes Knows days and loved when Katee would co-host during the ToadHop era. She was always hilarious and raunchy. I’m glad to see her still come hang out with you guys and us! Thank you, Katee!

[@claibornedavis5048]

All of your interviews are great, Kristian, but your interviews with Katee are always especially fun to watch because of your great rapport. The Mandalorian is one of my favorite shows of the past few years, so I can’t wait to see more of Bo Katan and what Katee does with the character!

[@Bang0r]

Amazing interview! I have to say, Kristian, I've been watching you for years, and you quickly became one of my all-time favorite interviewers. You and your team has gotten me through some dark times, and I can't thank you all enough! Keep up the amazing work!

[@georgeharris6851]

Katee is such a joy to listen to, and she has an infectious smile. Great Interview Kristian!

[@Cmnore]

I ABSOLUTELY support the idea of seeing Katee in the Last of Us S02! I was disappointed to hear that Another Life wasn't renewed but utterly thrilled to see that she would be back as Bo Katan! Our whole family loves watching the Mandalorian together, including my 21 YO daughter who does NOT consider herself a Star Wars fan. Favreau and Filoni have resuscitated the franchise and we are all in their debt. Congratulations, Katee on your continued success and your new(ish) role in motherhood. Katee: I'd also like to add that watching you and your fiance(now husband) dealing with home-renovation and beekeeping and everything else helped keep us sane during the lockdown and self-quarantining. THANK YOU for being you. You're always so honest and vulnerable and we thank you for sharing your humanity with us. It helps remind us all that we share and that we are all in this boat together

[@fishstick8555]

I really love what they've done with Bo's character thus far in the show. Katee's giving a masterful performance of this character in my eyes! Loving this show so much!

[@Derek.Iverson]

Thanks so much for taking the time to grace us with your presence on the show, Katee!

[@tylerhyde7768]

I love how things have come full circle for Katee and her career. From a small part in the awful Halloween Resurrection to giving amazing performances in Longmire, Battlestar, and Riddick. Being able to come back to play a character she once voiced and bring her to live action is amazing. Cannot wait to see her in a full season of Mandalorian. She's been able to shine in a lot of work she's been in, but I think she's gonna shine super bright in this show!

[@calip1031]

What an awesome interview with Katee. This is a great. Such a wonderful time listening to this one! So Amazing!

[@benpalmieri6409]

It was really nice to be a part of Katee’s therapy session. In all seriousness though, this episode was hysterical!

[@Me-tz5kk]

Wonderful interview! My family loves Star Wars and Mandalorian and can't wait for this new season. 🙂

[@vicieski1853]

Katee has been a favorite actress of mine for a long while. I’m so glad she’s getting the recognition she’s deserved.

[@deafstrokedailey3059]

I haven’t laughed this hard in such a long time when Katee was doing a therapy session! 😂🤣😂🤣😂 This was absolutely my favorite episode of The Big Thing‼️ And being an OG Star Wars & Battlestar Galactica fan was a plus! Katee Sackhoff has brought Bo Katan to life in animation & live action which is a very rare & special thing to do. I cannot wait to witness the rest of season 3 of The Mandolorian. What a great time to be alive & thanks for a wonderful show, Kristian Harloff! 🎙️
