You don't have to be watching Disney+'s brand new series Star Wars: The Mandalorian to have come across Baby Yoda. And that's because all sorts of memes have been cropping up in honour of the little guy, whose name is still unknown. Needless to say, (I mean, have you seen him?) he's been warming hearts across the globe.

Take a look at the official trailer for Star Wars: The Mandalorian:

Baby Yoda's role in Star Wars: The Mandalorian - which premiered on Disney's new streaming service earlier this month on November 12 - has been a real highlight for many. So it's hardly a surprise that the adorable character has taken the internet by storm.

Now, without further ado, here are some of the best memes featuring Baby Yoda:

While the character isn't actually the late Yoda from the main Star Wars series - Baby Yoda is, of course, from the same species as his predecessor.

Interested in learning what Star Wars: The Mandalorian is all about? Well, take a read of the show's official synopsis:

"After the stories of Jango and Boba Fett, another warrior emerges in the Star Wars universe. The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order. We follow the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic."

It's set in the Star Wars universe, five years after the events of Return of the Jedi and centres around the Mandalorian bounty hunter Dyn Jarren.

The first two episodes of the new show are currently available to watch in the United States, Canada and the Netherlands.

The show will be available to watch in the United Kingdom when Disney+ launches over there on 31 March 2020.

If you've been online and not stumbled upon a Harry Potter meme, have you even been on the internet?

Enthusiasm for the boy wizard on the web is still high sky even seven years after the last film came out and the memes just keep on coming. One person who has not come across many of them though? Harry Potter himself, actor Daniel Radcliffe.

During a recent appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon to promote his new Broadway play, The Lifespan of a Fact, the 29-year-old revealed he’s seen a couple humorous viral images floating around online, but doesn’t "seek them out".

Upon receiving this information, there was nothing for the talk show host to do, but show him them, of course - and we're so glad he did, as Daniel's reaction was pure gold.

The first one Jimmy brought out was Hairy Pugger, a pug dressed up in the Hogwarts uniform. Daniel showed the appropriate amount of appreciation for the adorable meme, saying: "What’s not to like? That’s great! Great pun, cute dog, great".

Next up was a picture of Daniel from the very first Potter film, clutching on to the golden snitch during quidditch training, with Jay-Z lyrics over the top. "If you’re having Quidditch problems I feel bad for you son. I got 99 problems but a snitch ain’t one," it read.

Daniel completely loved this one, giving it a cheer. But the best was yet to come, with a meme that showed the star off-duty out for lunch, looking rather depressed. It read: "Thinkin' bout all them school loans wondering if your wizardry degree gonna work out".

You're just gonna have to watch his reaction for yourself, because it was too brilliant to miss. Tune in at 1.43 seconds to catch it:

The actor has admitted in the past that the crazy fandom that exists for the film franchise often freaks him out. While on other talk shows, he has reminisced about the lengths that fans used to go to in order to meet him, once claiming that fans in Italy cornered him in the bathroom.

"Italy was crazy," he told Graham Norton."We never did any press there for the [Harry Potter] films so there was ten years pent up energy and when I got there it just exploded. It was incredible."

He continued: "At one point I needed the loo and had to make a 100-yard dash and was immediately followed by a flash mob. I had a Life of Brian moment when I opened the toilet door and there were thousands of people standing outside waiting. It was all very surreal and mad as always."

In addition, when he was just 13 years old, Daniel spoke out about a naked woman who followed him around on one occasion. The teen star said: "I did an interview and we looked outside and there was a girl in a Harry Potter towel and nothing else at all. It was November in New York, so it was freezing. She was out there for 90 minutes holding a sign that said 'Nothing comes between me and Harry Potter'. Later I went to do the David Letterman show and she was there again, but this time she had clothes on."

It all sounds a little too much, if you ask me. Stick to memes on the internet, Daniel.

The Star Wars prequels draw a lot of criticism, but there's one thing everybody can agree on: Ewan McGregor killed it as Obi-Wan Kenobi. The actor looked and sounded just like a young version of Alec Guinness, who played the character in the original trilogy. But did you ever notice with that unkempt hair and flowing robes, the Jedi Master bears a striking resemblance to a religious figure?

On the subreddit PrequelMemes, Star Wars fans celebrate every kitschy moment from the oft-maligned prequels. One Redditor joked that in Attack Of The Clones, Obi-Wan looked like Jesus Christ. This gave another Reddit user an idea for a prank. His parents are active members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, but not big Star Wars fans. So, for Christmas he gave them a portrait of Obi-Wan Kenobi, and let them assume it was Jesus.

The Redditor, who lives in Utah and wishes to go by Ryan, shared his experience on r/PrequelMemes: "I've made a huge mistake. Mom loves her Jesus Christmas present and I'm not sure how to get out of this thing alive when she figures it all out." When skeptics doubted the veracity of the prank, he shared a YouTube video where his parents unwrap the gift and react to it. The post got more than 37,000 upvotes, and the video has since been deleted.

Ryan explained Insider that the Ewan McGregor pic reminded him of religious portraits hanging in his childhood home: "It stuck out to me as looking like a picture we had growing up of Jesus. I kind of chased that thought to, how funny would it be if my parents didn't recognize who it was and actually hung it up on the wall. I have always tried to get away with things or pull some pranks on my family members and this seemed perfect."

Since his parents are casual moviegoers, they didn't immediately recognize the image was Ewan McGregor from Star Wars - Episode II. However, his mom is gradually recognizing that something is off:

"This morning they walked past it and my mother said something along the lines of 'there is something off about that Jesus picture. I'm not totally sure I like it'. Which went hand in hand with what she looked like as she opened it. She knew something was off but wasn't sure what. My dad kind of hung around saying it looked really familiar to him. He said 'it almost looks like Obi-wan Kenobi' but figured it was just coincidence."

After the post went viral, Ryan told his dad the truth, and he thought his hilarious, Insider reported. However, he has not told his mom yet: "As of now, I'm keeping my fingers crossed, mom doesn't know," said Ryan. "Still working on my exit plan there."

Well, if she gets mad, it's the perfect opportunity for a Star Wars quote: "If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine."

In this chaotic world of ours, an unlikely hero has emerged from the chaos and confusion to reign supreme as almost universally adored.

I'm talking, of course, of Baby Yoda, who has risen to prominence in the collective consciousness of the internet thanks to its part in Star Wars: The Madalorian, flagship show of new streaming service Disney+.

Yes, for the first time since 1978's regrettable Holiday Special, a live-action version of Star Wars has returned to small screens. And sure, that's exciting in it's own way, but in reality one character has really taken things to the next level. Baby Yoda.

Check out this brilliant behind-the-scenes footage of Baby Yoda in action:

If that hasn't endeared the uninitiated among you to the legend that is Baby Yoda already (and let's face it, it has), then maybe the many brilliant memes of the best character on television will.

In possibly the most adorable moment ever to exist on television, Baby Yoda sipped from a mug of soup during the latest episode of the show. And it's spawned some truly superb memes.

If the next episode is simply an hour of Baby Yoda drinking soup from his cup, then something tells me that a fair few Star Wars fans wouldn't be too disappointed.

In the meantime, the debate over whether we're even allowed to call 'Baby Yoda' Baby Yoda has been settled by one of the directors of the series, Dave Filoni, who stepped in to give his two cents. The filmmaker said that referring to the little green alien as 'Baby Yoda' was fine. He responded: "That's fine, all part of the mystery."

So there, I'm going to keep calling Baby Yoda Baby Yoda until someone gives me a better name.

It's easy to see why someone would become enamoured with the movie Shrek, isn't it? I mean, what's there not to like? The green skin, the antenna ears and the fashion sense are all major plus points. Then, when you mix in his charming, positive and loving character - Shrek becomes quite possibly the most attractive Ogre on the planet.

Because of this, there are a lot of people who are obsessed with Shrek. The film has gone on to have an almost cult-like following - with there being a spin-off, extremely dark, NSFW, YouTube series called 'Sherk' - something which is hugely popular with Reddit users.

However, while most lovers of Shrek would be able to recount their favourite line or tell you about their favourite scene, one fan has gone a step further.

Theo Karras and his family were heading out for a camping trip and were faced with a long drive to their destination. But, rather than play a game of "I Spy" or sit on his phone, Theo - otherwise known as TJ - decided to entertain his family be recounting an entire scene from the 2001 classic.

Luckily for us, Theo's sister, Maria, caught the whole thing on camera and posted it on Twitter for the world to marvel at. And, as it turns out, love isn't only true in fairy tales, as the video has gone to rack up 3.7 million views 78,000 retweets and 226,000 likes. Take a look at Theo's incredible re-enactment below.

Speaking about her decision to post the video online, Maria said: "We have a group chat on Snapchat with 11 of our cousins and we initially were going to send it to them, but it was too long. So I posted it on Twitter for them to see, and it was seen by WAAAY more than just my cousins!"

When asked about his flawless impressions, TJ said: "I've always imitated Shrek scenes and quoted lines since I was younger, so their voices are easier to remember. As far as memorizing it all, I owe that to the amount of times I've watched it!"

Twitter users have fallen in love with Theo and his performance, with plenty of users eyeing him up as boyfriend material and his sister has confirmed that he is, in fact, single and ready to mingle.

According to his sister, Theo has a role in a community theatre production of Legally Blonde the Chicago this summer — so if you fancy seeing viral all-star performing in person, you know where to go.

For now, however, Karras - who, according to his Twitter, has lofty Broadway goals — is taking viral success with a pinch of salt.  Still, it's a hard industry to get into and going viral online will help get his name out there and give him a platform to launch his career off. Remember the name.
