          It’s a good show. Not amazing like some people say, but it’s something you will probably enjoy.

          I never thought about it again after finishing it though.

            I just watched Andor. I enjoyed it more than the Mandalorian, and much more than the Obi Wan Kenobi series (so far).

            Not amazing like some people say…

            You have got to be joking. Andor’s “No Way Out” is literally one of the highest rated episodes of television on all of IMDB.

            If you think Andor is “mid,” you are very much in the minority, bud.

            Andor is - and I do not say this lightly - the best Star Wars related media since the original films.

            I will agree the show has a slow start, but by the time I watched “The Eye” episode, I couldn’t wait to see the next.

            It is the political thriller Lucas wishes he could have written for the prequels but didn’t have his ex-wife around to help curb his terrible dialogue nor save in the editing bay.

            If you don’t like it, I would be curious as to what Star Wars besides the original films it is you do consider better than Andor and why.

      Don’t trust the hype it’s not that good.

      I still think mandalorian s1 is the only genuinely great star wars thing coming out of Disney.

        I really don’t know why people like Andor either. It seemed completely pointless and dull. Mandalorian was worth watching, though, tough it did get worse with time.

          I dislike most Star Wars media and thoroughly enjoyed Andor. Andor is very much unlike most other Star Wars media and that’s probably why a lot of Star Wars’ core audience disliked it. To each their own.

          It seemed completely pointless and dull.

          I get the opposite impression. To me Andor is one of the few pieces of media produced within the Star Wars’ IP to actually have a point at all instead of just being a series of flashy action scenes and nostalgia bait.

            I’m not core audience, I find it good but overly predictable in its “struggle against corporations” thing coming from Disney.
