Andor

I'll say it again: Andor is one of the best pieces of Star Wars content ever made, and arguably one of the best shows on Disney+. Every episode feels cinematic, from the cinematography to the dialogue to the action, it's pure cinema. Yes, the time skips are annoying and the pacing is painfully slow at times, but by the end, you'll be dying to watch Rogue One all over again! Watching Rogue one after watching all of Andor truly feels like the full experience as you go into Episode 4. A lot of the content between 3-4 is worth watching for the full experience. Highly recommend. Andor is by far some of the best though for sure.

Didnt like the new movies and even Mandalorian was somehow boring. So I was almost going to skip Andor, glad I didnt.

This is well written, gritty and as adult as we can hope for at this point. Disney is maybe realising that there is a huge group of SW fans that are middle-age or over. It almost doesnt feel like SW made by Disney, but made by HBO.

Much more into the story line and character arcs than pim-pam-laser-fights and explosions. Casting is spot on on many roles and I have met only couple of situations where I go: "This should have been written better".

First time since long time I cannot wait next episode of Star Wars. Disney please dont mess this up for me.

This is, minute for minute, some of the best television on today. Not a ton of FX. Just a compelling story and great acting. It is certainly more adult than other CGI laden spin offs. I don't think any cute cuddly toys will emerge from the series. But the story shines.

The plight of the rebels feels real. We're drawn into the characters one by one. The acting is first class. The writing succinct. And the ever enigmatic Andor keeps the tension taught and mysterious.

Though the series seemed in no hurry to gain traction, it's totally forgivable as we approach mid season. We're drawn to the next episode as we anticipate the the rage sure to be drawn by the empire.

The writers seem merciless with the characters and Andor himself has a sharp unscrupulous edge not quite on display in Rogue One.

Big thumbs up.

Andor is why I pay my Disney+ subscription. This is Star Wars for those who have grown up with the franchise and are yearning for a more mature take on the Universe. It's hard to use the work 'realistic' when it comes to sci-fi, but everything about Andor feels real. The characters act sensibly and their actions never feel like they are purely made to drive the plot forward. I think the last time I used the term 'sci-fi that transcends it's boundary' was when talking about Battlestar Galactica. I think I can safely use that term here too. It's not a action sci-fi, so it's audience it probably smaller, so I hope it will not get cancelled. I hope Disney can find the courage to front a show based on quality and not just audience numbers. I believe that quality shows will always be good revenue earners over time as they are appreciated by more people, even if they are not the most popular out of the box.

Arguably the best thing to come out of Star Wars post-Disney. The show brilliantly captures the politics of the Star Wars universe without resorting to the political transgressions of the real world like many other products of Disney has done.

The production design, costume design, editing are all brilliantly done. The acting was quality all around without any characters sticking out in a bad way. Season 2's episode 8 and especially episode 9 is some of the best TV I've seen.

This show is so good I now play Niamos on loop as my workout music lol, perhaps there's hope for Star Wars after all.
