    Gilroy already tells us why Disney allowed Andor to happen, "they're not listening".
  • Andor has not only expanded the star wars universe, its deepened it. You feel as if you're a part of the day to day grind of the average person. Its an overall excellent production.
  • @lis.anwell638
    “It feels so good to love Star Wars again”. Yep, that’s EXACTLY how I feel.😊
  • The writing in this show is exceptional. Unlike Boba and Obi Wan, where I can only name a handful of lines that genuinely moved me, with Andor I can name so many.
  • @Shawnsrumi
    I’m going to get murdered for this…but Andor is a better character than Solo.
  • @illmf
    I love that you actually dove into Syril. His growth is just as important as Andor. It seems like he has an altruistic reverence for authority, but he really just has a power fantasy because of his life with his mother. He has zero problem going above rank or law (or breaking the law) as long as it fits his power fantasy. THANK YOU. so many reviwers cast him off as just a dweeb.
  • This show is the best thing Star Wars has done. It is a spectacle, deep, powerful, engaging masterpiece from start to finish. Each episode is so engaging to watch, filled with great arcs and memorable characters. Stellan Skarsgard chews up every moment as Luthen and he is probably the best character in the show. I don’t care that there are no Jedi and Sith because this show told a good story. The Narkina 5 arc is among my favorite storylines from any TV shows I have seen and the ending speech from Luthen is incredible. In short, this show is practically perfect and makes Obi-Wan and Boba Fett much worse in comparison. Let’s hope season two is just as good, if not better!

    I kinda disagree about Syril Karn. He is not some evil fascist crony... rather it seems to me it is a perfect opposite of Andor, perfect foil if you will: Andor - does not accept the call to adventure vs. Syril - accepts it immediately in spite of hurdles thrown by his superiors and with no promise of any reward whatsoever Andor - for his refusal of call, he is thrown repeatedly into worse predicaments until he accepts the call vs. Syril - for the failure of his adventure, he is thrown into "underworld" (home of his mother where even the light of the Sun does not reach him) where his growth is petrified and from which he must break free Andor - is charismatic and likeable - everyone likes him but he is not in position of power vs. Syril - is awkward and emotionally stunted, hard to like for this reason, but initially in position of power Andor - initially driven by self-interest vs. Syril - is driven by righteousness Andor - has a loving mother figure who accepts him despite his flaws no matter what he does vs. Syril - has a toxic mother figure that undermines him under the guise of caring and points out each and every one of his flaws to clip his wings Then only characteristic those two men have in common is this - when motivated they are very brave.
  • I find it interesting that Andor kind of returns to the roots of Star Wars shows. There's a lot of similarities in it to the first and arguably the best long episode SW series. (The Clone Wars) The emphasis on every character, the long slow journeys for each character, the whole format of 3-episode arcs, making the small feel big, the emotion through music, it all feels very reminiscent of The Clone Wars while being its own thing.
  • @Rey20171
    This show absolutely came at the right time and reinvigorated some enthusiasm and gave us something we never knew we wanted and more and better. There’s something about it that I think is gonna stay with us for a long time to come. It was definitely a beautiful gift wrapped up in a bow and it’s not even Christmas yet. Who’s ready for 2023
  • I liked that in Cyril’s introduction into story, he technically isn’t wrong. Andor did murder at least one of those corp cops (self defense could be argued for the first). We really haven’t seen that in Star Wars: “little” people dying and it MATTERS. A similar thing could be said for Dedra: she’s not wrong in her assessment of the larger rebellion and initially we kinda root for her to prove the wormy climbers around her wrong. But then we realize “oh shit! Her being good at her job is a BAD thing because her work is EVIL and being competent is bad for our heroes and freedom”. I wish Tony Gilroy had written the prequels 😢
  • @Dynnen
    I love during Skeen's death scene the choice to have him look away thus making his body a faceless mirror of what Cassian was...it's just so symbolic ❤️
  • In a way, Nemic's "Just try" also makes me think of the recurrent line from Jojo Rabbit, "They did what they could". It's the sum of all anonymous people's actions that pave the road for the revolution against terror.
  • Andor's Season Finale is probably one of the most powerful pieces of Star Wars media we have gotten in over a decade. Sure Star Wars has had it's moments here and there, but Andor took the series back to it's roots of standing in opposition to evil no matter the odds. I had Goosebumps during that final battle.
  • Andor is the new standard. We now know that it’s possible for Disney to make high quality Star Wars shows/movies.
  • Andor is about a desperate rogue with questionable ethics but a good heart who's being hunted by another man and ends up falsely imprisoned. Upon his escape there are major changes to his life and the ultimate climax of the show results in an army of musicians starting an impromptu uprising to overthrow a tyrannical Empire. How is this not 'Les Misérables"?
  • @mewtwo.150
    Is not only the writer, but the actors, the music composer Is that kind of show where everything goes correct, like Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul If the music in Andor was different, it may have lower quality

    Griffin, I just want to go out of my to say this, but thank you for doing this. Andor, struck a cord in me that I never knew I had in the first place. It holds a very special place in my heart, and your video validated that to me on so many levels and I've never been more grateful for it. This is not the only time that I felt this way though, your video on Rogue One, reminded me just how much I love the nitty-gritty, down-to-earth, realistic side of Star Wars, and, in turn, made me not be ashamed of it, even if some people really do prefer the fantastical side of the Star Wars franchise. Again, thank you Griffin for doing this. More power to you.
