Anyone else notice that the Mandalorian seems like Clint Eastwood’s Man With No Name in space armor?

LOL During the faceoff with Michael Beihn's character in the last episode I was actually whistling the Good, Bad and the Ugly theme.

Very much a western feel to the episodes

Yep. Mandalorian understands that it's fan base is guys. It doesn't hit us over the head with super-girls or feminist dogma.

Jeremy Bulloch, the actor who played Boba Fett always said he based how he played that character off of Eastwood’s Man With No Name.

Obviously Boba Fett is not the same character as the Mandalorian (or even a Mandalorian if you want to get really nerdy), but the same essence is there.
