    ANdor was made by adults with real writing skills. It showed in the slow character developments but so good to experienced as a viewer. It showed in the choice of castings. It feels like watching Orwell's 1984 in space.

      In many ways it was functionally the furthest from the roots of Star Wars, but at the same time it was the only series that genuinely _respected_ both the universe and the audience. I felt something I haven't in almost any other Star Wars production, that not only was I being taken seriously by the writers, but that Star Wars was being taken seriously too. Never mind Star Wars, that's a rarity in _any_ media.
      Almost everything else has been a cheap cash-in or knock-off, just there because some suit who's never watched a Star Wars movie in his life thinks that franchise hasn't been returning high enough numbers.

      I agree. Without having any Force Welders in the show along with the way, it was written, captivated the audience about oppression, love, and triumph through the human spirit. That’s why I think this show was fantastic and it just happened to be set in a galaxy far far away…….

Rogue One remains my 3rd most rewatched SW film, right behind IV and V. Once in awhile the stars come together for mega hits like these. Thank the Gods for 4k discs.

      Andor is 1984, Russian Revolution (minus the Revolution's betrayal, for the moment) and children of men all together, at exactly the moment we all need to see it.

    Nothing “slow” in episodes 1-3, if people pay attention. Every moment and line is important and pays off. They are among my favourite episodes.
    Galen Erso would be a very welcome addition, and the scene I would most love would be one between him and the pilot defector, Bodhi Rook.
    It wouldn’t be terribly dramatic if all of Cassian‘s friends were killed before they even reached their destination - as there are four years, it makes much more sense for them to die one by one for maximum dramatic impact. Plus Adria Arjona (Bix) seems to have a pretty major role, going by the leaked sizzle reel trailers. Losing her , considering she’s arguably the single most important person left in Cassian’s life at this time, shouldn’t just happen off screen.

      agree there's more depth in a few minutes of Andor than the entire acolyte, pick any few minutes you want..... it's to me about as opposite from tradtional disney plus star wars fomula of have a lightsaber fight or two, have a couple of ships in space there you go thats star wars and then crap over the whole idea of Star Wars. I thought the idea of these shows was to go deeoer into the star wars universe and cover some detail of which Lucas left plenty of wiggle room to do from the original six films... it does that very well and there's nothing else that does this so well, at all reallly apart from the Mandalorian does that ok. I personally like the idea all the players are very sure about which side they are on, Cassian is the one who is not!

It likes someone looking at a beautiful skyscraper and concluding that let's just duplicate the shell and simply stack copies of it in other cities without the need for a foundation. They don't realize that the shell is nothing without the foundation....it is the foundation and all those steel beams behind the scenes that make the beauty of the building possible.

    I personally found the first 3 episodes really compelling.

    If they’re going to make the second season “very different this time around” that is definitively NOT a good thing. I thought Andor was the finest Star Wars production ever made. Doing away with the infantile space ninja magic, and giving the script writing duties to a real writer, turned the show into something that felt much more like an Aasimov style space epic (like Foundation). I was hooked from the first episode. The dialogue was spectacular, the actors were first rate (Adria Arjona and Diego Luna were mind blowing). The effects were stellar and the action was thrilling (the whole sequence where they steal the Empire’s gold and escape under cover of the glowing meteor storm was absolutely exhilarating).
    What a magnificent achievement. I hope it’s not TOO different.

      No. You didn’t hear his whole speech. In it, he tells the inmates to band together and help each other escape. That’s not what they were incentivized to do by the prison labor rules. The inmates were forced to compete and fight each other by the Empire in order to control them. But Kino inspired them to work together…so those inmates helped him escape over the water. And I think Kino returns as a rebel general and maybe sacrificing himself to win an important battle.

It really showed just how tyrannical the Empire was, from their intolerance for small skirmishes on backwoods planets to the human slave labor on Narkina 5. This would have been around the same time the loose rebel cells started to get more organized, with Mon Mothma help fund the operation from inside the Empire. Of course in Rebels she obviously catches too much heat and has to be rescued and taken to Yavin.

Stop writing from ideology and start putting the fans first. Fans if you enjoy the show get in behind it and let them know they are on the right track.

    Andor wasn't given the marketing it deserved. Disney has a track record if it even goes as far back as their old hand drawn animations like treasure planet for example.

    Praying it doesn't go the same way as Mando, when the higher ups find out a SW property they had little to do with is great and go a bugger it up... hoping I'm wrong as I loved the first season

    Andor also evokes to me the darker dystopian direction 1970s SF was going before Star Wars came along. Stuff like Blake's 7, Logan's Run, Silent Running, Farenheit 451 or even THX 1138. I feel like in some ways it's the alternate path Star Wars could have taken at the time of its creation, if it continued down that cynical but cautionary path.

    The beginning of S1 only “felt slow” and “required patience” for numbskulls who basically consider themselves beneficiaries of the McDonaldsization of entertainment and storytelling in the US. Anyone who has watched and loved The Wire (for example) did not feel the need to “speed things up” - they were simply engrossed in a complex and breathtaking story, wondering where it would take them, and issuing no complaints.
    Don’t try to subtract points from Andor because it isn’t the storytelling equivalent of a f***ing happy meal. Thanks!

    Trusting Tony to do this project was a stretch even for Kathleen Kennedy, however it has opened the door to do more world building, and add other characters who by their own merits helped form the alliance. Little is known of the formation of the separatists, the Geonosians, how Czerka corp's influence helped emperor Palpatine and the First Order, and what about the other generals of the rebel alliance, or how did the Mon Calamari get involved? Where was the war waged that caused the escape of Cal Kestus? Where was Ahsoka Tano when Anakin became Vader? there are truly so many areas for exploration and expansion for stories and games, I'm especially interested in how the Outlaws story came to being!

    I saw the first Star Wars on the first day of release - 5 times by hiding under the seats between shows. Andor, which I have also watched more than once, without enduring sticky floors, is the best Star Wars since that day in May 1977. Cant's wait for April (?) 2025!

    I want to see a confrontation between Mon Mothma and Palpatine where she dispenses with formalities and fake obsequiousness and finally tells him to his face what a foll she's been all these years not to realize and truly see him for the monster he's always been.
    Being Palatine he takes it stride but gives and ominous warning to her as she leaves an while his words don't say much, Mon can tell her time is up, Palaptine has finally lost his patience with her, and she needs to get the hell out of dodge NOW before Palapatine sends the ISB (perhaps led by Dedra herself) after her.

    Andor was the most politically complex of the Star Wars canon. The soulless bureaucracy - with it's intrinsic office politics - that enabled the empire was made explicit.
    However evil they were, the Emperor and Darth Vader couldn't have run things on their own without a tame bureaucracy and a military.
    And not everyone was a Jedi knight or a member of the planetary aristocracy. The downtrodden working class and criminal underclass at the empire's margins was well represented too.

    I too thought that B2 EMO would be killed and somehow downloaded into the imperial droid to become K2, but was berated online by SW fans for the idea.
    They couldn't agree with it or like the idea. I mean B2 was a droid that said he needed more power to lie, and i think K2 is a droid with no tact and is brutally honest about everything, instead of sparing your feelings he comes straight out with an honest POV of the situation.

    Furthest from the Original Trilogy??? It's literally the prequel to the Original Trilogy! It has the lived in universe feel, it sets up A New Hope, and even makes that title make sense. You probably mean the furthest from the Prequel Trilogy.

    You guys seems to forget one thing. On episode 1, Andor was looking for his sister. Never gets mention again after that episode.
    My guess, he'll find her in season 2, only to have her killed by the Empire or the ISB. That's when he truly "lost everything".

    No Jedi, no lightsabers... yet its the best Star Wars since the original trilogy. It has been the victim of low viewership by no fault of its own (basically Disney has been shoveling crap for so long that people checked out and missed out on this gem). But considering the word of mouth and high praise from reviewers, everyone is hoping season two will be a different story.

    I disagree that its the furthest from the original trilogy. I think visually it feels closer than anything before. It has the grit, realism, and desperation of the first trilogy without allowing the "force" to swoop in and be the hero. Each action of rebellion feels personal & impactful character development as the characters in the OG trilogy where the sequel trilogy makes those brakes just convenient plot elements.
    Yes, it doesn't have lightsabers or jedi. But if you took everything else of the OG trilogy, it feels a lot like this show.
    I do think the next season has some interesting challenges. First, the rise of the rebellion and second, Cassian's transformation from his current character to his character in Rogue One.
