New trailer looks great. I can't wait for this show. There are some pretty talented folks running it so my hopes are high.

Rogue One was a solid movie. This guy is from that movie so I’ll give it a shot but the only drawback is that it was made in the current state of Disney which is ‘diarrhea of the brain’ so I’ll keep my expectations low going in.

I'll watch it, look interesting and bit different with it being "regular" type of people. Still wish more non-humans in it.

So we're three episodes in and I'm pleasantly surprised. I had very little interest in this one tbh as I found Andor himself to be almost entirely lacking charisma in Rogue one. And he still very much does in this show as expected. However... All of the cast are well thought out and convincing. The show is definitely a slow burner, with only episode 3 really having any kind of action. But that is not a bad thing. The writers of this are not sticking with the same formula as Book of Boba and Obi Wan did, and that's a very good thing. I actually think this might be the best produced Star Wars show to date. It definitely has lots of potential.... I'm excited to see where it goes next.

If I was in charge, I'd sign over Star Wars to Tony Gilroy and crew. He gets it. Yes, more than Favreau and Filoni.

Two episodes in and I?m liking it so far. Story build up takes time but I?m liking the mystery and flashbacks.

My initial thought after the first two episodes is it's a bit slow, but the more I sit with it the more I appreciate the approach to the story. I like the dark, serious tone...the trailers depicted this and I'm pleased to see that is the case. Things start to ramp up in the 3rd episode and I'm excited to see how this develops. And it's great to see Stellan Skarsgaard in the Star Wars universe...he owns the screen with even a simple expression.

Great show! It definitely does not dumb things down like a few recent Star Wars shows did.

I read earlier that the people behind the show have said it starts really going places in Ep: 4 and beyond. I'm still surprised that the show I was least excited for is by far the one I like the most, Mando aside.
