Andor

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 THE show anyone who grew up with classic Star Wars needs to see. 'Mature' Star Wars, if you will.

Maintains the aesthetics of Rogue One and has a quality of writing to shame recent pathetic efforts. Stands as a great little sci-fi adventure on its own, within the Star Wars universe.

Terrific production, script and depth of accomplished acting performances - tremendous - give it a gravitas to have you salivating if you ever so much as tingled at any great Star Wars movie.

One particular visual snippet as an example - S1E06 'The Eye' has Tie Fighter pilots scrambling into their machines. Mere seconds of screen time but a scintillating burst of realisation that such dynamic moments have never been 'authentically' presented to you before. Ally that with engaging and stimulating dialogue, and it delivers some great stuff.

Treat you inner kid and impress your critical adult: don't miss out on giving this quality production the attention and admiration it deserves. This is Rogue One (the 3rd greatest Star Wars movie behind IV & V) expanded. 8/10 and climbing.

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.

Andor was every bit as good as I was hoping for. It might be the best Star Wars series to date, I used to think it was The Mandalorian but these two seasons of Andor have been flawless. Of all the Star Wars series so far this one is probably the least known character but that doesn't mean it's any less interesting. Andor is a character from one of the best Star Wars movies, Rogue One. All the reviews have been great for Andor so that got my expectations even higher and so far they've all been met. It has a real gritty feel to it compared to the other Star Wars series and the visuals are great. It's also more adult oriented compared to the other shows so far. But the cast, led by Diego Luna, is the best thing about this show. Well that and the writing. These two seasons of Andor have been nothing short of incredible and easily the best thing Star Wars has done since the original trilogy.

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.
